Interesting. I know other distros had tried this, and I seem to recall
reading about this during my last LFS build, but I didn't realize it was
in an actual release.
Good tips, thanks.

yes - I know - not "all" of the files - /bin /sbin etc the stuff I've
always thought of as "the tree" - Fedora now has it all under /usr

ro by multiple systems, and potentially unavailable during boot.
don't ask - just be happy.

Nathan - Fedora has made changes to the Linux Filesystem Hierarchy by
locating all files under /usr and replacing the rest, like /bin, with
simlinks, in this case to /usr/bin. This may create problems with
permissions that Firefox and Chrome are not dealing with. As to /tmp
- you should expect it to go away with each boot - many people encrypt
/tmp without keeping the key so that there is no information leakage
from one boot to the next.
I would start looking at the permissions for the files Firefox and
Chrome can't seam to find in the new F22 locations - happy hunting

I've been running Fedora 22 since it came out and have been very

except a couple issues.
* Firefox wants me to login to sync everytime I close the browser and
open
it again. It says there is a problem syncing. However, once I give it
my
password again it syncs fine and continues to work until I close the
browser
(all instances). Then when I open it again it all starts over.
* Similarly Chrome has an issue remember passwords. It seems while it
is
open it remembers my passwords and all works well, but initially when
I open
it I have to log in to several places as if it does not remember my
passwords.
I am not using LastPass. I like the default password managers for
both
browsers. I use them for separate things and I do not want unified
passwords
between the two.
Does F22 have a temp problem? I really get the impression that much
of my
browser data is being stored in tmp space and is lost when I reboot,
which
is daily because Grid Autosport doesn't work in Linux... ;-)
I cannot find any references to this in Google as all searches with
Firefox
and sync return lots of people having problems, but not my problem.
These
issues are common across several machines I have and each has been
wiped/installed multiple times.
Any ideas?
