You are lucky or you haven't followed the list very long. Fedora intentionally stays close to development and thus pushes out a lot of code that has not previously been tested in a lot of different environments. Whether you measure stability in terms of rate-of-change or updates that cause crashes, fedora doesn't fare very well, but as a tradeoff you get to try all the nifty new desktop stuff. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell@xxxxxxxxx
