Yes, this looks like it was an SELinux issue with regards to old ICC

To fix this, I updated F16 to the latest SELinux policy files (yum

Now, however, when I attempt to run "yum update" on the new F16

everything was fully updated in F15 just prior to the upgrade, and

try "yum provides */libunwind" instead, as the trailing * might be

With F16 the gdm login window started using alpha blending. However recently
on a couple of my machines I am not seeing that any more and would like to
turn it back on. I haven't been able to figure out what the setting is to
do that.
Does anyone know where this is controlled?
