As far as systemd goes, more thought should have been done (IMAO) on

whatever's needed to find out if all of the services that were started
at boot still are or that any services that had been explicitly
disabled weren't re-enabled. Yes, a professional sysadmin with dozens
of servers to keep running can be expected to check, but the average
home user with one Linux box isn't going to expect to need that.
I was real tempted to color some test red to highlight, but I did
resist. Being an "average home user" when it comes to doing sysAdmin
stuff, I have been reading all the posts on this list and getting real
scared over trying to figure out what is no longer being done that I
need to do.
Is there anything resembling a single doc/html/post/whatever that can be
used as a reference point to try to begin to understand what all this
entails (hopefully that assumes systemd is something new to learn rather
than "of course you understand" which glosses over the "understand" issue).
Thanks in advance,
Paul
ps: for what it is worth, migrating from F14 Gnome to F16 Xfce has been
relatively painless short of one Totem crash which seems to be bigger
than just Gnome or Xfce (Bug 751692). Once that is resolved, I can
commit to the migration.
A bunch of relearning "where things are" but that isn't horrible.
