matrix0978 Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 Have you tried it out yet, prathapml? Im debating to test it out or not.
WBHoenig Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 I'm gonna install it on VMWare this weekend.Thanks! Can't wait; love that Linux!
EchoNoise Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 I can tell you now... It has a different feel than FC4 Except wasn't this supposed to come out in April... lolOh well
harunaksoy Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 I'll wait for Dapper drake, it's still too bloated for me
DigeratiPrime Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 I'll wait for Dapper drake, it's still too bloated for me you know ubuntu is kinda 'bloated' itself. if you want a distro without bloat you need to build it yourself.
Gouki Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 ^^ Or using DSL (**** Small Linux). Thats definatly 'bloat-free'. Slackware is pretty 'clean' too.^^ Or using DSL (**** Small Linux). Thats definatly 'bloat-free'. Slackware is pretty 'clean' too.
prathapml Posted March 21, 2006 Author Posted March 21, 2006 I was waiting since march 12 for this, They kept delaying! Finally started dl'ing it the moment it was released.Have you tried it out yet, prathapml? Im debating to test it out or not.Yep, I'm running it now, and I've got to say that this is the first redhat release in a LOOOONG while that I'm satisfied with.Good hardware support, latest stable versions of packages, fast performance, refreshing new default look....The last version I actually liked was redhat 7.3 - after that, all subsequent redhat/fedora releases were too bad in one way or other, and the old desktop theme was horrible - they had used a redhat theme which literally blurred out all variation in looks of KDE & GNOME.But core5 feels nice in all ways.
