Hm...

Since 94? "yum upgrade".

Sure. It is in continues development. On Fedora you must know what 
installation DVD is for.

There are no fglrx for F11. Sad but true. Thise is what you must to know too. 
So, akmod is installed, but kmod can't be compiled. It is a real problem, it 
is exist, but no X with fglrx, but radeon(hd) or even vesa - all for you. Just 
edit (nano? vi?) /etc/X11/xorg.conf.

system-config-network-tui is present on DVD.

How did you manage it?

F11 have Python 2.6. You have your system partial updated. But it could be 
fixed.

It just works.

Yes! I knew it! Partial update.

OK. When Fedora prepare to releas mainterners freez package versions. They 
create iso's. But (suddenly) developers release a new version of there 
product. Will it be updated in Fedora DVD iso? Of cause, not. Then, developers 
of second package released it stuff, third, forth... Yum updated, KDE updated, 
DeviceKit updated, R updated. Opensource world is in development, continues 
development. In updates repo you can find newer packages, than presented on the 
moment of Fedora releas. So, it completly normal. I think, it is not just 
normal, it's greate!

> the sound no longer works!
And it is a problem.  It need to be resolved, I'm agree with you.

> and the firefox and thunderbird betas... 
Sorry. Don't use them.

May be hardware problem?

Cindly ask you to do it. This could help to develop Fedora, make it better 
with future releases.

Dag is wrong. Sorry, Dag.

Just look at Ubuntu bagzilla.

Hm... sometimes rhel _will_ release. You can begin to prepare a draft of that 
policy.

> a really angry fedora user.
Happy Fedora user :)

And my experience. Have upgraded couple copms from 10 to 11, couple from 9 to 
11 (yes, in documentation written it is not supported at all) and nothing 
suprising occurs. Sound playing, video showing, Konqueror prowl the Internet 
oceans.

The only one thing: plymouth start theme in F10 is better in my opinion then 
in F11 one.
