Fedora Core 2 Test 3 Released

Posted by timothy on from the try-it-out dept.

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."

  3. NVIDIA Problem, Red Hat Problem, Our Problem by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0, Troll

    The Fedora kernel 2.6 problem with NVIDIA's drivers (or vice versa) has to do with a choice RH engineers made for their version of the kernel and got into the mainstream; it's not compatible with NVIDIA's choice of kernel parameters for their binary driver. Reading the RH employee's post on the matter confirms that it's one part RH arrogance, one part NVIDIA short-sightedness and one part non-cooperation which adds up to one major Linux consumer sodomizing because all these self-aggrandizing posturing people can't play well with others.

    Almost forgot . . . the obnoxious "compile/fix-it-yourself-closed-source-is-evil" posters can bite my anonymous behind while they mod this post down; the other 99.9% of us are getting boned while those 733t clowns pontificate and piss on each other.
