I used hiwaay on the 17th with the boot.iso. The installation completed 
normally. It even setup the soundcard correctly.

I did have problems relating to SELinux not setting the users (both 
super user and normal users) directories permissions correctly.

It did detect the soundcard upon installation and would work fair 
without SELinux enabled.

With the changeover to xorg and a few refinements performed to SELinux 
according to the last build report that I saw. I was wanting to try an 
upgrade http installation on the 17th installation. If this didn't turn 
out positive results, I would do another fresh install.

Now since I stated my current activity. I was wondering if the goal of 
other testers was to do fresh installs or upgrades because of the high 
package rate of change.

I think that SELinux on clean installations and on upgraded 
installations needs to be tested. Also the xorg fresh installion needs 
to be tested.

Who is testing out the xorg transition and who is concentrating on 
SELinux. (Or the combination of the two.)

SELinux and gdm did not work out well on the 17th installation. I was 
able to log into mingetty terminals, but with file permissions all 
messed up.

When the servers get into sync, if not already, pass on the info.
The tree is stable enough for installation. (at least on the 17th)
