I can see people getting problems when they update their kernel: one cannot get his preceding resolution on his monitor, another one has no more printer....
I must say, my experience is the opposite - I used to find that distribution kernels often would not run on one or other of my (7) machines, but I haven't had any such problem with FC-6 or Fedora-7.
What I have noticed is that I get much more gumpf on the screen when I re-boot, much of it about USB. I don't read this properly - it flashes by too fast, for one thing - and it doesn't seem to be repeated in /var/log/dmesg (or if I run "dmesg").
I sort of thought everything that came up on the screen when re-booting would appear in a log file?
