Fedora Core 1 could be seen as "Redhat Linux X (or 10)". RedHat discontinued normal RHL and is now focusing on Redhat Linux Enterprise (which costs $$). They help support the Fedora project though, which has taken over the normal Redhat Linux code and is supported by Redhat and the open source community (according to them).

See more at http://fedora.redhat.com.

That said, I'm waiting till my university has got it on there FTP site, then I'll grab it off there (it's free for me!). Will probably take a couple days.. which is good since I'm in the middle of exams anyways.

well, here are some shots of Core 1. This new bluecurve/gnome gui is one of the nicest and most professional i've ever seen on linux. this is one of my favorite distros.

Installation Screen


Bluecurve Desktop, Openoffice.org1.1.0 being used


In root directory.


Looks pretty damn nice i'd say.

worth upgrading? I'm running RH 9.something on my pc. but the hardware is obscure enough we've never had sucess w/ anything but RedHat.... is there any benefit to upgrading, or should we go the "not broke, don't fix" route?

I think I'm going to do a format and reinstall (backing up my home dir, /etc, all the important stuff). I've dirtied up my RH9 install with miscellaneous tests and crappy programs. It'll be good to go back to a clean install, and I'm looking forward to Gnome 2.4. Right now I have Ximian Desktop 2 installed, which was a pain to install.. and I can't imagine uninstalling it so I can upgrade to Gnome 2.4.

Well, I broke.. downloaded the ISOs when I'm supposed to be studying.. formatted, did a clean install. It's nice. Not huge huge changes, but still a nice new system. ALSA was a pain to reinstall though because of a change that's made in RedHat (it screws up the snd module). You have to do a couple more steps when compiling. Otherwise, not too bad.

Gnome 2.4 has little things here and there that are different. I couldn't name anything offhand though, I just notice them in odd times.

Here's a screenshot of my desktop. I've modified it with different themes/icon sets, so this is not what your system will look like fresh out of the box. You'll notice it looks a lot like Ximian Desktop 2's setup.. I liked their style/location of things, so I remade it in Gnome 2.4.
