Dear Fedorians:

Recently, I was hitting a number of odd behaviours that look like races.
Filed a couple of bugs:

 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1082092
 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1082095

But this feels unsatisfactory, because reproducibility is extremely
low for all cases. Bugs aren't going to cut it.

So, I'm wondering if anyone has an idea where to dig.

Here's what I recall seeing:

 - The audio volume applet does not always react to plugging headphones.
   Re-plug and it goes away.

 - Screensaver forgetting to blank. Move cursor and problem disappears.

 - Applications may not map on screen on start. Click on activity again
   usually fixes the problem.

I think there were more, I just can't remember them all.

In each instance it's easy to blame firmware, kernel, whatever. But
there are several. If RAM was bad, I imagine I'd see crashes. But no,
system is stable. Also, F19 worked fine.

Of course it's most difficult to find a black cat in dark room when
it is not in the room, so I'm wondering if I'm seeing things. If anyone
else is seeing a sudden onset of racing behaviours after upgrade to F20,
please let me know.
