I did an install from the RC3 live CD (on USB) and it went well.

However F15 remains very unstable, I don't think I will be able to use
it. The main problem is that it will lock up spontaneously (then heats
up if left as if in a tight CPU consuming loop). Apart from that any
kind of session ending - logout, reboot, and other things like
suspend, hibernate, turning wireless on and off - things that use
systemd maybe? - will lock up the machine in the same way. This
machine was perfectly usable on F14 and never locked up.

I have a bug: 697157 on the kernel which seems to be getting little or
no attention; at the same time I don't have any idea how to diagnose
this given that the logs contain no clues.

It will be back to F14 or I might have to try Ubuntu again for this
hardware if it doesn't improve.

Sorry if the tone of this message is a bit negative. I would love to
use F15 and will continue to test any updates as I find time. I'll be
keen to work with any developers that are interested in debugging the
issues.
