kemical Posted April 21, 2004 Share Posted April 21, 2004 i'd wait for any sign of a stable release from the fedora team honestly, right now i would only use fedora to submit bugs because there are a lot of them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markwolfe Veteran Posted April 21, 2004 Veteran Share Posted April 21, 2004 Fedora Core 1 is perfectly good. Update your kernel (even to the newest 2.6 version, if you want) and you are good to go. (Y) According to the Fedora site, we can expect FC2 to be released in May. (and, I would recommend staying away from "test" or "beta" or "release candidate" software, unless you are a tinkerer and want to help the community by submitting bug reports.) :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hornett Posted April 21, 2004 Share Posted April 21, 2004 I'm running Core2, Test 2 and it seems fairly stable to me. I keep it up to date via apt-get and I've only seen a couple of niggly bugs so far. What bugs are causing you guys problems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
