[ale] Fedora 24 - A little bit Challenging??

[Jim Kinney]

Highly unlikely to be flatpack related as the apps for using must be
installed manually and then specifically rhe available apps must be
unstalled with flatpack commands and not yum/dnf.

I run fedora24 and have a few issues. Sometimes a shutdown hangs waiting
for some process to close. Remote ssh conns tend to clog the shutdown.

Gui eats 2 terminal sessions - first for login and second for actual gui.
Ctl-alt-f3 will a tty from X. A logout from X will transition to tty1 while
stuff closes on tty2. This allows other console users to log in if someone
has a locked screen.

I've not done an ssh into Fedora 24. Will have to test that.

Yeah. Usually waiting 2-3 months after release is a good plan unless you're
ok with frequent updates - think daily.
