====f22 Rawhide kernel 3.19.0.0 causes problems with Virtualbox 4.1.20====
"Fedora's 'bleeding edge' distro "rawhide" has rolled out kernel version 3.19.0.0 today. Virtualbox guest additions 4.1.20 fail with desktop integation (only a ~1000 pixel horizontal resolution can be achived). Mouse integration and shared folder integration is OK. I *do have* rebuilt the guest additions after the kernel upgrade - just telling in advance in case somebody should feel like to ask!"

==MultiWriter==
:http://fedoramagazine.org/duplicate-isos-to-multiple-usb-drives-with-multiwriter/
"A brand new application called MultiWriter has just hit the Fedora 21 repositories that allows you to write a single ISO (eg. the Fedora Workstation Live Image) to multiple USB drives all at the same time. The application is super simple to use, just insert the USB storage devices you want to write to make show up in the MultiWriter interface, then press a single button to choose the ISO and MultiWriter will image the ISO to all those USB drives."
"Multiwriter is now available in the Fedora 21 repositories, so you can install it using the Software application in Fedora Workstation, or on the command line with:"
sudo yum install gnome-multi-writer
