Weird Firefox performance issue
by Jonathan Kamens
Hi everyone,
I was seeing really, really poor performance from Firefox. I'm not sure
exactly when it started being a problem, but it was going on for at
least a week and I certainly saw it with Firefox 12 (in F17 x86_64).
I thought I would try moving my profile out of the way to see if
performance would improve, so I shut down Firefox and moved
~/.mozilla/firefox/*.default somewhere else. But then when I tried to
restart Firefox, it said that it was already running but not responding.
Clearly moving the *.default directory isn't the way to go.
So I then put it back where it had been and instead moved all of
~/.mozilla/firefox out of the way. After doing that, I was able to
restart Firefox, and indeed performance was much better.
Having confirmed that, I deleted the newly created ~/.mozilla/firefox
and moved the only one back into place so that I could try disabling
extensions, etc. bit by bit to identify the culprit. But when I then
restarted Firefox, the performance problems were gone!
In short, somehow moving either ~/.mozilla/firefox/*.default or
~/.mozilla/firefox out of the way temporarily and then putting it back
seems to have somehow cured the performance issue. I don't understand
why that might be and think it's rather odd, and I'm not sure how I'd
even begin to bugzilla it. Does anybody have any thoughts? Is anyone
else seeing anything like this?

New BugZapper Introduction
by Michał Bień
Hello,
My name is Michał Bień, I'm from Poland, and I want to become a BugZapper.
I have a lot of experience in Linux. I am using it for four years (two
years as an only system). I haven't got a lot of experience with Fedora,
I'm using it only for two months, but I really want to contribute.
I have a lot of free time for bug zapping after my studies.
My hobby is programming, I know C,C++,Python and Delphi.
I am a big fan of GNOME, and GNU at all/
It's my first time in Fedora team, so I will be really happy if somebody
help me as mentor.
my gtalk: michal1.bien<at>gmail<dot>com
I'm waiting for response,
Michał Bień

GMA500 vs. G3 software render
by Adam Pribyl
While I consider the latest development on gma500, present in many Atom
base netbooks, a great success and would like to say thank you to
developer(s), G3 software render negates all this for gnome shell as this
is extremely slow on Atom. With the fallback mode the G3 is working very
well on gma500. But the obvious question is, beside the questionable
future of acceleration on gma500 - what is the future of the fallback? Is
there still a list of devices that should use fallback "by default"? If
yes, then I would nominate the gma500 for it, as this is really horrible
experience, making many users scared, just after live CD/USB boot.

Dovecot
by Mike Chambers
Did an upgrade from F16 to current F17 tree + updates on my server and
all seemed well.
Except for dovecot..which after the upgrade, it seemed to error on my
client side (via imap) about namespace and inbox=yes and no namespace or
something along those lines.
Anyone else seen this? It seems downgrading back to the 2.0 version in
F16 get it back to working again.

re: gnome shell calendar colors

Greetings:
Thanks for the idea of changing the theme or using the High Contrast, but
the only thing that I want to change is the calendar portion not
everything...
I was hoping the colors would be in a css file somewhere...
