Yum stopped working after F14 -> F15 upgrade

Hello, I have upgraded from F14 to F15 using preupgrade and everything seems to be okay except yum. Whenever I run yum, it terminates giving the error: Error: Cannot retrieve metalink for repository: updates. Please verify its path and try again The error message appeared for other repositories also. In order to sort out the problem I have tried out the following: 1. Disabled livna, rpmfusion and other repositories. 2. Disabled ipv6 3. Created entries in /etc/hosts for mirror.fedoraproject.org 4. Reinstalled yum, fedora-release-15-1 However, none of this has solved the problem. DNS is working fine and all other internet applications are able to resolve sites. Any suggestions? Thanks, -- Manish Kathuria

Logout issue?

Running fully updated F15/64bit. When logging out, I often have several apps running. Among them are Google Chrome and Google Earth. On a subsequent login I've had Google Chrome come up without it "pined tabs". A restart of Chrome restored the pins. Once, so far, Google Earth indicated that myplaces.kml was corrupt. It restored from backup and all is OK for now. The above never happened in F11 that I'd been running for quite some time. This would seem, on the surface, to suggest a race condition of some sort. Just wondering if anyone has seen this? Unfortunately, it does not happen with any frequency or consistency.
