Just a heads up that I know of at least 2 F12 show stoppers (as far as
upgrading goes) wherein the computer screen doesn't display the session
properly.  

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=529128

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=528188


Both of these cases involve NON proprietary display drivers.

If you Google a bit you might find other cases that involve non
proprietary and proprietary drivers.

Long explanation short, I would run F12 live before I did a blind
upgrade to make sure that the video display is going to operate properly
once you do upgrade.

Hope this helps someone.
