If you don't mind my using your problem as a hook to hang an opinion on:
You have had graphics problems with 3 out of 4 machines.
Personally, I have had no graphics problems with Fedora-12/KDE
on 5 machines, though I have had other minor (and unimportant) problems.
But how rare or common is your experience?
Have only 5% of Fedora users had graphics problems with F-12?
Or is it 50%? Or 75%?
I don't see how it is possible to plan development rationally
without some idea of the statistics.
I agree. I could be unlucky with my particular systems. Although from
the forum there apear to be many people having install problems that sound
like Graphics driver issues. I am also mainly talking about 3D apps that,
I guess, a lot of people do not use.
Are there any statistics of actual F12 users, not just those who downloaded
the systems and installed them ? (I have test installed 5 F12 systems but use
none of them).
