DNF update

3RD time happened, when doing "dnf update" XFCE crashed and had log in again. I know, there is bug somewhere and people have been told to do update in virtual console. Ok, twice I did in in console running in X. But now I used virtual console and when returned back into X, it crashed and had to

kde plasmashell eating cpu - FC24 all updates on INTEL Q6700

I have just discovered (one of?) the reasons plasmashell was eating so much cpu and memory on my system. I have dual monitors and in circa FC20 I could get a panel on both screens then something happened (and I suspect I tried apparently unsuccessfully to restore a panel to one of the screens)

I have an old smartphone (Samsung Galaxy S2), unlocked, and I'm thinking of trying to write simple apps for it on my Fedora-24 laptop. I'm fairly familiar with Java (and Eclipse) (Long ago I wrote a program modifying TeX web2c to output Java). I haven't found a reasonably authoritative article
