The "good news" is that Fedora 15 has reached its end of life and is completely unsupported, so you can simply start fresh with Fedora 18.

do u mean there is nothing that can be done apart from upgrading the
system |
I'm sure there are other options, I'm just giving you my best suggestion based on the information you've provided so far. :)

what is the system specs ?
is the hardware even able to use the gnome desktop in the End Of Life-and unsupported fedora 15 768 meg ram is the VERY minimum and 2+ gig is better with 4+ gig good is the 3d card supported ? if it is a very old gforce5 or older , it is not and 15 is 3 versions and has now been unsupported for over 6 months please stay current and install fedora 18 -- if your hardware can use it recommended minimum 64 bit cpu 1 gig ram ( 2 to 4 is better ) 10 gig disk space ( it fits on a 16 gig usb ) |
1gb ram
150 hhd I jst better try fedora 18, I hope I will not loose any data when upgrading |

Don't upgrade a broken system---it might still be broken!
Back up and test drive the new release. If you are satisfied with the test drive, then do a fresh reinstall and restore your data from backup. If the test drive doesn't work, then try a bunch of distros until you are satisfied. There are many threads on these forums about "best distro for old hardware." |
with only 1 gig of ram
gnome3 will be rather slow i would look at using xfce or lxde Desktops do you have a 3d card ? if so Nvidia,ATI/AMD , or a built in "chip" on the motherboard see the fedora compatibility list http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/...tible-x86.html |
