Fedora Core 2 Test 3 Released
Wee writes "I just got an email from Bill Nottingham of Red Hat letting me know that the third and final test release of Fedora Core 2 is now available. The announcement mentions the big changes are SELinux being disabled by default, that on-and-off problem with install CD1 not booting should be fixed, and anaconda now is sporting 31 languages. The mirrors look like they are opening slowly but surely, and bug reports are always appreciated."
On the Friday before his MEET THE PRESS appearance, Dem presidential hopeful John Kerry flew his Washington, DC hairdresser to Pittsburgh for a touch-up, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.
Cristophe stylist Isabelle Goetz, who handles Kerry's hair issues, made the trek to Pittsburgh, campaign sources reveal.
"Her entire schedule had to be rearranged," a top source explains.
A Kerry campaign spokesman refuses to clarify if Goetz flew by private jet on April 16 or on the official Kerry For President campaign plane.
The total expense for the hair touch-up is estimated to be more than $1000, insiders tell DRUDGE.
One source suggests the hairdresser was flown to Pittburgh on Teresa Heinz Kerry's 'Flying Squirrel', a Gulfstream V private jet.
[The 'Flying Squirrel' is worth about $35 million. A deluxe model; plasma TV, two bathrooms, fancy mahogany and burlwood paneling, gold-plated fixtures.]
"Senator Kerry thinks Isabelle does a superb job," a campaign source said.
Goetz grew up in a small town in eastern France. She also does Hillary Clinton's hair.

oh, btw, Eugenia please don't review this one, your last rant was bad enough. Everybody knows you're M$ fangirl, soo stay where you belong.
I installed it last week, and it froze the machine _cold_ twice... i.e. had to reach for the power switch. I had enough (as this box _had_ to be reliable) and switched to Debian Testing (sarge)... no problems since.
...when did Slashdot become Freshmeat? This entire topic is (-1, Redundant).
Its still not a "useable" distro, for the home user. Mandrake 10 is a much better home use/school use distro (besides the major bloat) and if all you debian fans are so madly in love with apt-get, Its not that hard to setup under mandrake (heck, i used the urpmi to install it, so thats just 2 commands)
come comment on the madness at http://slashdot.org/~phreak03/journal/
Only if you (stupidly) picked to boot into runlevel 5.
Is typing startx so much trouble?
Booting into 5 means you lose valuable console messages. If a program just dissapears, there's usually an error message on the console you started X from, unless you boot into 5.
The only time I think it's appropriate to boot to runlevel 5 is for a computer lab or kiosk environment, or some other situation where you don't want the user seeing anything but X.
I've had enough abrasive sigs. Kittens are cute and fuzzy.
Fedora still sucks... GO SLACKWARE!
This is a test. This is a test of the emergency sig system. This has been only a test.
A wealthy man has just squandered the equivalent of the average americans take home salary on frivilous personal care items. News at 11.
I just love slashdot.
i have a bug to report. its a broken piece of trash. let me know when it supports 1% of what windows does.
kthxbye
