			Fedora 15 has a <code class="filename">/run</code> directory for storing runtime data. <code class="filename">/run</code> is now a tmpfs, and <code class="filename">/var/run</code> is <code class="command">bind</code> mounted to it. <code class="filename">/var/lock</code> is <code class="command">bind</code> mounted to <code class="filename">/run/lock</code>.

Several programs including <code class="command">udev</code>, <code class="command">dracut</code>, <code class="command">mdadm</code>, <code class="command">mount</code> and <code class="command">initscripts</code> used hidden directories under <code class="filename">/dev</code> for runtime data during early bootup before <code class="filename">/var</code> is mounted. However <code class="filename">/dev/</code> is supposed to be used for only device nodes and there is consensus between major distributions to shift to using <code class="filename">/run</code> instead. Fedora 15 is leading this change. Details including the benefits are explained <a href="http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2011-March/150031.html"> here</a>.

			In addition, there is a new contrib module <code class="filename">pg_upgrade</code> to support in-place upgrades from 8.4 to 9.0. This means that you can upgrade from a Fedora 12 or later database without a database dump and restore. To do that, install the <span class="package">postgresql-upgrade</span> package and run <code class="command">service postgresql upgrade</code> as root. It's advisable to have a separate backup in case of trouble, but the actual database conversion requires only a few minutes with this approach.

		</div><div class="itemizedlist"><ul><li class="listitem"><div class="para">
					For RANDR-based drivers with an asymmetric multi-head setup (two non-overlapping monitors with different sizes), previously there was a "dead space" in which the mouse cursor would appear to go off the screen. For example, 1280x800 + 1600x1200 horizontally adjacent with top edges aligned would have a 1280x400 dead area below the left monitor. This is now fixed, and the cursor will stop at all exterior output edges.
				</div></li><li class="listitem"><div class="para">
					The XFixes extension has been updated to version 5, which adds a new "pointer barrier" feature. Similar to the above, this allows applications to put invisible walls on the display that the cursor cannot cross, or that it can only cross in one direction. A typical use is gnome-shell's "Activities" mouseover in multi-head setups; when it's not in the actual top-left of the screen (say, because the rightmost head is primary), the barrier makes it possible to stop the cursor on the Activities mouseover and not slide through to the next output.
