Fedora 11 x86_64 - E ' out!
Finally, after two weeks of delays than the latest date, and some last minute changes evident in the look and name, is the latest release of Linux out of the house of the hat red to the user desktop, Fedora 11 Leonidas (United)
.
The distro is released with the usual strict implementation of open packages, sizes Desktop Edition Desktop Environment
KDE or Gnome
, sizes live CD or installation media for both systems x86 32 bit and 64-bit x86_64 systems, there is an installation media, you do not live, even for PowerPC systems
Apple users.
For those who love this wonderful distro, and have suffered not just the latest update of the F10 Cambridge (as always before the release of a new release, on the other hand), is great news, because it also allows for those who have time and desire to give a better resets the system, and perhaps, after upgraded the hardware of the exposure notebook with a nice HD bigger, make a nice clean install, redistributing the file system and partitions, especially if, like me, you made two consecutive updates on a machine with dual boot and you are a operating system a bit 'too saturated and too much FAT32 and NTFS in the middle of the foot.
Among the key features listed for the new release, you will find the 20 second startup to optimize the boot, the improvement of PackageKit and font management, improvement of Pulseaudio with the unified control of system-application volume, improved modesetting kernel for Intel, ATI and Nvidia, better management of fingerprint readers, improving the virtual console, with the merge between KVM and QEMU, the DE Gnome 2.26 KDE 4.2 (on ftp sites, there is also a version optimized for Xfce the cars a bit 'older), the now legendary Firefox, which arrives at version 3.5, and Thunderbird, which passes to version 3, and especially the adoption of the default FS EXT4.
I used Fedora with KDE until the arrival of KDE 4.0, that forced me to go to the GNOME desktop environment for incompatibility between that and the human race :-), but I took it easy trying to familiarize themselves with DE the spinster, Nautilus even managed to please me and not much regret the funzionalissimo Konqueror (as Dolphin, in my opinion, it is still sub judice).
This can be an excellent opportunity to continue to use the graphical environment of the dragon, now largely stabilized.
bell'elenco I have also prepared a package of essential (in my opinion, of course, and to use that I do daily) than the default ones, and some hardware configuration a bit 'harder to find on the net, at least for the RPM world (eg webcam Microdia ID 0c45: 624f driver with SN9C201 + OV9650), but before I post it if it is compatible, and any update, with those available with this new version.
In the meantime, long live Fedora, the Linux world and the open source community.
