Intel Switches From Ubuntu To Fedora For Mobile Linux

Posted by timothy on from the all-good-all-good dept.

An anonymous reader writes "According to a report on heise, Intel is switching from using Ubuntu to the Fedora Project for the second version of the Intel supported Mobile & Internet Linux Project Moblin, citing a desire to use RPM package management." So far, of the various subnotebooks I've been glancing at over shoulders at OSCON, though, most of the ones with an easily identified operating system seem to be running Ubuntu.

  1. Fedora over Ubuntu for a mobile platform? by C_Kode · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I like Fedora and don't even hate RPMs like so many. I perfer Ubuntu on my desktop and I cannot figure out why you would want to switch to Fedora over Ubuntu. It's just more usable than Fedora. Though for more advanced setups Fedora is a better (as it more simple) option.
