I like keeping my workstation updated but prefer to leave the reboots for the weekends. So, I tend to ignore kernel packages when I run my updates. This is the way, sudo dnf update --exclude="kernel*"

Many have been complaining of their chrome extensions crashing in Fedora 15. In my case it was LastPass and Xmarks. The issue is caused by SELinux and the quick fix is to disable SELinux. Here’s how you get it done; Fire up a terminal cd to /etc/selinux/ vi the “config” file. Change “SELINUX=enforcing” to “SELINUX=disabled” Reboot, launch Chrome and your extensions should be working fine.
