i originally installed F24, while having X pinned to 1.17 ( circa F22). That sort of worked - but with constant (daily) sudden screen resolution changes and half of the keyboard not producing right symbols - i have enough.
I upgraded to 27 , with the hopes that the "latest and greatest" will save the day. Unfortunately, i'm still admiring the consistency and the beauty of the black screen.

Any help will be highly appreciated.
