Otherwise for Ubuntu 9.04 the only thing to write would be the new cool notification system.(I hope it becomes default for Gnome, so every distro includes it)<BR/>Ubuntu 9.10 will have Plymouth by default, as well!L4Linuxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15028406018466939194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3525387298742496139.post-34581343155616075632009-03-16T08:29:00.000-07:002009-03-16T08:29:00.000-07:00I really like the idea of bringing the newest and ...I really like the idea of bringing the newest and best software to the desktop and I think that Fedora is quite good at this.<BR/>However, most features you listed were already in Intrepid:<BR/>-GNOME 2.24: check<BR/>-Linux 2.6.27: check<BR/>-Compiz 7.8: check<BR/>-Firefox 3: check<BR/>-KDE 4.1: check<BR/><BR/>This was October last year. Soon the new version of Ubuntu will be released with a new kernel, GNOME and Compiz(8.2).<BR/>OpenOffice 3 wasn't included in Intrepid though. <BR/>I'm also curious to the PulseAudio improvements, that wasn't really good in the current stable Ubuntu.<BR/><BR/>Plymouth really is a great improvement and I think Fedora did some great work here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3525387298742496139.post-63730427741809251422009-03-13T21:48:00.000-07:002009-03-13T21:48:00.000-07:00What new things does Fedora bring with its latest ...What new things does Fedora bring with its latest version 10?<BR/>PackageKit: It is the biggest development in Linux program installation in years, in my opinion. It can be used by ALL distributions as a GUI while using their back-end of choice (APT, YUM, ZYPPER, URPMI, whatever). Unification at no cost to diversity & choice. It can't get any better, can it?<BR/><BR/>Sounds neato. I for one never had much luck with rpm distros. Mandriva was a nightmare for me with umpri and package management. I might look into this later after saving up my pennies for another hardrive.

I tried OpenSUSE not too far back and installed one basic packages that pulled in like thirty dependencies, then I learned what dependency hell meant. With my low speed-connection, I'm not going to try another rpm distro until the package manager gets fixed, otherwise, I'd like to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
