The article was poorly written, but brought up good points. Tweak your esd.conf, sshd_config and gdm (to disable root login), les (ttyUSB permissions), remove unused services… I have a list of things in a text file I do with all releases to get them the way I want. We should rename 90% of the “reviews” to “install experiences”.įedora includes open source packages only, only use repositories compatible with eachother, ie: base, extras, updates, livna… FC also steers away from anything that could have patent implications to protect themselves and the users. FC5 could have some init changes and could make some major changes. It still puzzels me why people will have such a different review on each FC release, up till 5 they are more or less the same with just updated packages and a few reworked technologies. I assume this becuase of the lack of understanding why stuff isn’t the way they want it and flea to a newer distro with alot of hype. This was another useless rant session by what looks to be a fairly new linux user (2 1/5 yrs maybe). People always b*tch about something to get people to recognise their “great influence in technical reviews” or to visit their blog. Open Office 1.9.x for me is more stable then 1.x, not to mention can actually convert a document reliablely. (just tried to get the same working environment as with SuSE,got SELinux as bonus :-))ĭon’t people ever just get tired of saying the same thing… “No DVD support”, “No WMA support”, “I want more packages in the base that no one else could care a less about like Tux Racer”, “My sound is crappy”… The list goes on…
If i wanted i could easilly substitute SuSE 9.3 for FC4 Once you have enabled the livna repository it’s quite easy to install k3b-mp3,xmms-mp3,gstreamer-plugins-mp3 ,kdemultimedia-extras to name a few.įC4 is exeptional good ( for non-novices). I would recommend you install the yum-extension (yumex) it’s a graphical frontend for yum.Athough it’s fresh it works suprisingly good just like synaptic,but is allready preconfigured with most possible repositories.All you have to do is select them and reload yumex,it’s that simple. Previously, enabling these multimedia types was not a hard task, but this time, it’s daunting.
FEDORA 25 HOW TO INSTALL NVIDIA DRIVERS WINDOWS
There is no support for proprietary formats such as Windows Media, DVD, and MP3, though having used past Red Hat/Fedora releases, I would expect nothing more. I encountered an overwhelming number of bugs in this area. Worse, Fedora Core 4 gets low marks for multimedia.
FEDORA 25 HOW TO INSTALL NVIDIA DRIVERS MOVIE
The current fedora core is not of any use to me if it cannot play movies! I some how managed to play mp3’s but i hate hacking all the time! I’m ceriously considering moving to Novell which is always shipped with movie players and mp3 support. Also fedora core is shipped with GCC 4 which made my life even worse to install mplayer on my own.
Anyone who will is switching from Windows to Linux will jump back to windows after the Fedora core 4 due to lack multimedia and in absent of GUI based updating tool. Specially considering people may be thinking of switching from Windows to Linux. Nothing wrong with that too! but I only expect while release fedora they should conside certain criterias. I know fedora is a test platform for REdHat and they are using us to make their package strong. All thought I’m not surprised to see openoffice beta version. I’m deeply disappointed with the sound, media, movie side of fedora core 4. In some cases review is pretty good! It talks about common people and not for people running Linux in vmware! People running Intel 845, 865 boards have terrible time in fedora core sound system.
