I am writing this because I am beginning to get frustrated with
Fedora 16. I am on the verge of going back to Fedora 15 so I can have
some peace of mind. There was a time up until now that after a RC
release it would settle down and run nice but with this Release that
is not the case. I am not giving up on Fedora as a whole but when you
can't make anything run without freezing screens and nvidia drivers
won't install it becomes frustrating.
Maybe I made a lot of changes at once, from a HP nc2400 with f14 to a
Lenovo x120e with f16. I have not noticed any slowdowns even though
the HP was a duo core and the Lenovo is single. So I would put the
suspect on the nvidia cruft. And nvidia for some reason has been a
long time sore spot with Fedora.
I just re-installed Fedora 16 on my desktop and before the re-install
every thing was running fine. Now Gnome3 is freezing and nautilus is
having trouble opening and the list goes on. I agree with Christopher
and Cox, maybe there needs to be a slow down on the eye candy and work
on a solid foundation for the eye candy to run on. It seems that we are
falling into the cart before horse syndrome. I have been with Linux for
about 6 years and the one thing I have always bragged about was their
ability to produce cutting edge OS's with eye candy and not the other
way around.
