Fedora 15 with GNOME 3 Lovelock or Bug-Lock ?? | Linux | Fedora 15
Hello Guys,
I Feel very exciting every time when there is a new release of Fedora Linux. and this time i was double-excited to see Fedora 15 Lovelock with GNOME 3.but it became BUG-LOCK FOR me alteast, Don’t know about other FEDORA USERS.
I am Highly Disappointed by this Fedora 15 Lovelock release. As a User I found so many bugs in Fedora 15 Lovelock. Some Fedora Fans may not like this post but this is true. Lets hope Fedora 16 will the be an answer.
In Compare to Ubuntu 11.04 I give full marks to Ubuntu this time though i am not a Ubuntu User but yes I started Using Ubuntu from 2 or 3 months and its good if you compare with Fedora 15 Lovelock.
This Post doesn’t mean that I Don’t like Fedora’s All version but Yes Fedora 15 Lovelock is Very disappointment for me personally.
Sometime I Feel is this Fedora 15 Lovelock or Bug-Lock ???
Right Now I am posting some bugs of Fedora 15 BUGLOCK over here, I don’t say everybody is getting same bugs or it apply to everyone but bugs which i am mentioning right now those are Bugs which I am facing and I Feel so irritated by it. Those are very common things which you need to make your life faster to work. I have got following bugs while using Classic Gnome with Compiz Environment.
Please look at following list of Bugs which I am facing :-
1) You will get double-mount point on Your df -h even though you have turn off sandbox service. At first time while switching sandbox service this bug was fix but in next update it started again and now this BUG permanent don’t know when Fedora 15 developers realize
2) On Any Open Nautlius Window on Classic GNOME Environment If you press CTRL + SHIFT it will create problem in compiz and after that you will not able to see your MENU BARS on Nautilus Window. If you want MENU BARS back then every time you have to open terminal and have to execute compiz-gtk command. This is my habit to MAXIMIZE Window by Pressing CTRL + SHIFT + x.
3) Funny Thing which i found is :- ABRT ( Automatic Bug Reporting Tool) Is also getting problems once you start reporting problem, So You can’t submit your bug too. What is the use of ABRT then ?
4) IF you press shutdown button then instead of shutting down system it is getting Log-Out and after than I have to shutdown from Login Window ( This is random behavior). To make this very simple I have created keyboard shortcut so shutdown 
.
5) If you are Music Lover and If you are listening songs and Added So Many songs into your Movie Player ( Totem ) then BEWARE you will not able to save your playlist, Every time you have to add those Manually.
6) Nautilus Action Configuration tool is also not working. I have added one script (EnqueueInTotem) into Nautlius Action Configuration tool to make songs queue in Totem ( Movie Player). But It is also not working.
7) In Any Nautilus window if you press CTRL + F its start matching text of folders/files instead of Search Bar on Nautilus Window, Previously in Fedora 14 it was working fabulously.
You cannot quickly see properties by pressing ALT + ENTER, THIS IS MOST FRUSTRATING BUG.
Above bugs which i have mentioned are very common things which you need to make your linux computing very faster, But Fedora 15 Bug-Lock is not providing it. Even though there are so many updates in Fedora 15 every two days and they are not fixing this kind of common bugs what’s the matter BOSS ?.
I don’t say every one is getting above bugs it is possible that i am the only one who faces above bugs. This is completely my view and list of bugs that doesn’t mean every body needs to feel this or need to react on this. This is my personal opinion may differ with others.
I am a Big Fedora Linux Fan and I like to use this distro very much but I am very disappointed with this release,I am very sorry to be very harsh on Fedora 15 Bug-Lock, Fedora 10-11-12-13-14 are much better than this. I Hope Next release of Fedora will be an answer and with Better Improvements.
If there is more bugs i will post it here in future but If you know also other bugs please comment it out here I will try to post it with your name and description.
AGAIN SORRY IF ANY BODY HURT BY THIS POST BUT ITS MY PERSONAL OPINION ON FEDORA 15 LOVELOCK ( BUG-LOCK)
ENJOY LINUX 
ENJOY OPEN SOURCE

Hello,
Yes, I know that but its for GNOME 3 but for Gnome to Even pressing enter on Shutdown its not getting shutdown its main BUG …..
but hoping that all bugs will be solved into Fedora 16 its about to come.
Hello,
You can stutdown if you press ALT. Instead of Logout you will see PowerOFF.
I think this will help
Hi,
I am facing an issue with Fedora15 with Gnome theme in which my Installtion window gets all the fuctionality which the top most window have but it stays behind the current open window,and if i switch to another workspace and came back to the original workspace that window comes up on the top then.
Hello,
I have written those bugs which mostly I have faced while using “CLASSIC GNOME WITH COMPIZ”, There is compiz support in Classic Gnome but its Buggy.
Compiz is not supported in Gnome3 dude. Its not actually a bug
I’am an ardent REDHAT fan from say version 5.2, then upgraded to 6.2 and then the best ever 7.1, and also used 8 and the legendary 9.0, then tried every fedora till now, It is a pain to see simple things which you took for granted simply stopping, Hope you understand,
Hello,
I can understand and feel your Frustration, I was a huge supporter for Fedora but this release really disappointed but don’t loose hope they will improve in Fedora 16 very nice, I am expecting this. Even every Fedora supporter wants Fedora to get improve day by day release by release.
Fedora has been going downhill, trying to be Ubuntu or even Win$, THe identity is lost, Even the system-config-display is gone, so if it wont show you Desktop , you are lost, there is no xorg.conf file and xorg -configure fails saying screen numbers does not match devices blah…blah, I feel very sad i updated from Fedora-12 to this crappy distro, The fedora team is good at only breaking things nothing else,Better find something else soon, This is going no where, In this distro Release, I lost proper time (shows random time each boot), Sound missing from the hda_intel_via (via 1708s codec), crappy video from G31 (Only way is to allow modeset, then it works lol, disable modeset and everything goes haywire), Pretty bad state of things, Maybe in fedora 16 they will disable RPM too and make you install what system decides you want,
You’re right !! This was the first time I installed a Linux Distro and it was really disappointing to see so many bugs ..
@Fedora people: Hope u have a group of people who really run your OS..
Hello,
Yes, I am facing similiar kind of issue, My Wireless Getting Disconnected with Bunch of errors, After Reboot its working perfectly fine, Hoping better performance on Fedora16 release but Fedora 15 for me its a complete Bug-Lock.
I agree with you guyz.it’s really buggy and giving lot of problems.
Last time i try to install kde and whenever i update the packages then my wireless is disable again.it’s really giving tension for me.
Hello,
Yes, You are right, I think they have done this because of excitement but its a BUGGY Excitement I must say.
Thanks for sharing your BUGS
I am really surprised after using FEDORA 15. My conception was that FEDORA 12 is buggy – but FEDORA 15 is really a BUG-LOCK (My RAM is 2.5G)
I found some missing-link in FEDORA 15:
(1) GNOME Window is completely black – nothing is coming (Same in openbox also).
(2) The new login window is not being set after I modify it.
(3) From the second login onwards (without restarting), the login screen is completely black.
How a software gets released with so many bugs – may be they not test it.
Regards,
Ramanuj
