Posted by Philipp Esselbach on: 05/31/2004 03:42 AM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]
Mad Penguin has posted a review on Fedora Core 2
Fedora Core 2 (FC2) is the latest offering from the Red Hat community driven Fedora Project. It has a plethora of new features including the new 2.6.5 Kernel, Gnome 2.6, KDE 3.2, an implementation of SE Linux and the X.org X11 windowing system. Fedora Core 2 is a professional distribution that focuses on functionality and ease of use, without patronising the user and keeping the clutter to a minimum.
