Anyone else enjoying Rawhide?

Anyone else enjoying Rawhide?
I am

Did i miss something, i had expected to see a black gnome, this one looks (IMHO) almost like cinnamon.
If its about stable (?), i'd give it a try to replace F16 on the laptop.

It is cinnamon, why would I want to use gnome-shell (it crashes at login)?

If its about stable

Do you mean rawhide or cinnamon?
Rawhide isn't that stable at the moment here due to nouveau crashes.

I'm really going to enjoy replacing the **** they call nautilus (it's F18 makeover will be very unpopular) with nemo.

If you promise not to sue I will post a nautilus screen shot

So you are going to go about finding nemo, eh? (sorry, couldn't resist the pun )

Nemo is captain over the nautilus.. so nemo rules!

Bet, yes, I agree. I haven't tried F18 with the new nautilus changes, but from what I saw of them, it will be very unpopular.

I am getting ready to download rawhide as we speak, though. Hopefully I can have it on one of my test boxes in the next day or so.

Do you upgrade your repositories from a F17 install or download a nightly? I am asking because I have not seen a succesfully built nightly compose for sometime now - Everytime I check I only see failed!

Here you go

So much for Nautilus. Used to be a good thing. Now? Not so much. <....>

Dang it.. I can't find a good nightly, either. Oh well.. Guess I won't try out F18 this week

Most of the "new" stuff gnome devs come up with is like pie in the face for the regular pc user

[hadrons123]

Time after time whenever I get the urge to kill my Fedora installation, I upgrade it to rawhide to see what new in there. Most of the times it won't boot or even if it does, too many apps crashed for no apparent reason. I wonder how some people really run rawhide all the time. Debian unstable is far more usable and stable than rawhide, I do understand that Debian unstable packages are older than Fedora release packages , but I have a working computer with Debian unstable which is usable. Debian has experimental too. But you cannot be running all your packages from experimental, you can only select a few packages which in a way looks lot sane way of experimenting packages.

And not even a good tasting pie, at that. (It think it's more like a "pie" they found out in a cow pasture)

Was that intentional? (Think Spherical ....)
