On my freshly installed Fedora 20, with that Gnome 3 shite, I had an option to shutdown, but none to log out. A bit of googling suggested a solution to give me a log out option in my menu, but it did nothing (you could click on the, now available, logout option, but nothing ever happened in response). That was the final straw, so I installed the mate desktop, and use that instead of Gnome. Now I have a desktop that works normally. You haven't said which desktop you're using with Fedora 20. You want to give the list that information for someone to be able to give you the best advice. Doing an update over the top may carry over previous problems, whereas a fresh install *may* have gotten rid of your library fault. I have a 32 bit install, and don't knowingly use mysql, so I can't say whether a fresh install Fedora 20 would definitely make any difference. I haven't done update-installs for many years, but when I did, they were nothing but a problem. One of the advantages of a fresh install is that you don't have to put up with prior faults continuing over to the new release. Nor debugging cases of things that didn't update. Nor deal with heavy and lengthy pre/post-install dependency computing. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
