  • Change desktop file in /usr/share/applications:
add --resolution 1024x768
#gedit /usr/share/applications/sugar-runner.desktop

This fix is needed to make sugar-runner start correctly from the XO icon
in f21-workstation bare metal install
installed with # "yum install @sugar-desktop sugar-runner" .
  • Notes: 11/16/2014

You must navigate root terminal to /user/share/applications/ 

gedit sugar-runner.desktop
edit the Exec line and save
Restart Workstation before the changes will work

Loss of wifi

listed as f22 alpha FE

source: http://blogs.gnome.org/dcbw/2014/06/19/psa-fedora-21-networkmanager-and-dnf/ The"... core of NetworkManager smaller and more flexible by splitting out Wi-Fi support into the NetworkManager-wifi package. If you don’t have or don’t use Wi-Fi on your system, you don’t need to install stuff for it and you can save some disk space and RAM. If you suddenly find yourself without Wi-Fi, find a wired network connection and:" 

dnf install NetworkManager-wifi
systemctl restart NetworkManager

yum is depreciated in f22 to dnf
