No big deal really.   Already have a work around and a more complete 
fix will be forthcoming.  The intended audience of Fedora won't have a 
heart attack over small issues like this.

Really doesn't matter.   Many times people see what they want to see.

Nope.   Linux is not defined by Fedora.   That's kind of the point.   It's
the freedom of Linux.   And not many people expect the desktop
top be taken over in 2005.

Not being ignored.   There is already a work around.   The problem doesn't
even affect everyone who is dual booting and doesn't affect anyone
who has been freed from Windows :o)

Nope.   You seem to be on the edge of sounding like one though.
Ashamed of your name are you?   Why not come out from behind
the email addy.
