Since a few days we have AS7 7.1.1.Final available in Fedora updates-testing repository. Please give it a shot and bump the karma if it works for you: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/jboss-as-7.1.1-2.fc17 Make sure you use build 7.1.1-2 because it fixes one issue present on i386 platform. Thanks! --Marek
