tiagosilva29 Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Fedora 18 Feature List Skip the update, unless you're ready to deal with possible tmp-on-tmpfs issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViperAFK Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 You'll miss out on gnome 3.6. Fedora 17 is maintained until 1 month after the release of f19 so you shouldn't have to worry too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haggis Veteran Posted November 9, 2012 Author Veteran Share Posted November 9, 2012 yeah thinking i will just keep a hold of it till at least F19 gonna start looking at Other DE's though getting bored with gnome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybertimber2008 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I thought Gnome 3.6 was a nice update from 3.0-3.4 (been testing F18). Solved quite a few of the nags I had. I'm way more concerned about tmp on tmpfs though... that and now it's going to ship in 2013 :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haggis Veteran Posted November 9, 2012 Author Veteran Share Posted November 9, 2012 have they moved the date again? yeah i dont think i will bother with F18 Surely i can upgrade gnome anyway if i wanted to in F17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybertimber2008 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Yea delayed again, anaconda, secure boot and fedup (fedora upgrade?) are what is holding the beta release up right now. I give them kudos for delaying and trying to ship something good, rather than something flawed at release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haggis Veteran Posted November 9, 2012 Author Veteran Share Posted November 9, 2012 yeah defo no point in shipping something that's broken or not complete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
