Well it is!. The screen is not *actually* unstable...after some time, it switches to (I guess) a screen saver, which is little pop-up balloons describing features...gwenview and other programs....Huh????

Well that's really...hmm, what is the word?...bloody stupid! I got tagged by having fedora-development.repo in my yum.repos.d folder. Kinda bloody stupid not to have all three in that repo and referenced as dependencies if the damn thing won't run properly without them.

And yes, it is....thankfully I have my data separated but it still takes a chunk of time, and now I have to re-update and install a whack-o-crap...
