I agree, so much so we reinstalled the previous FC from backup and are not 
going to update, all updates wil be done manually from kernel org and 
respective programs distro points,  FC4 is ajoke, even most the install 
CD's fail until you make it in an error condition then running install, X 
is screwed, with fonts, video drivers that work on ealier versions dont in 
FC4, the list goes on and on and on...
