I started out with VA Linux and then Red Hat before they split into RHEL and Fedora. Some of the reasons I've liked Fedora is that I like to be running more or less bleeding edge. I'm not sure how much that will change since they have gone away from the two releases per year model. It always seems to minimize issues with new RHEL releases at work since I've already compiled everything with the latest gcc on fedora long before that made its way to RHEL. Since they come from the same ecosystem, I've had good luck getting work things (like Oracle Database) to install on Fedora even though it only officially supports RHEL and OEL. I've actually grown to really like gnome 3 (with a good set of plug ins). I pretty much expect things to just work like running virtual box (stupid Windows for work) on one screen of a dual head set up. I have no experience with Ubuntutu and their desktop thing. I run cinnamon on the old laptop I use as HTPC. If you want to play with the future, you can run Wayland out of the box on F21. I have no idea how many other distros have that. -- Kathryn Hogg http://womensfooty.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
