Wow. Thanks Fedora dudes! The Fedora 14 upgrade was possibly the easiest yet. After the horrible time I had upgrading last time, The version 14 upgrade was a dream!! DVD Media booted, and installed. Everything still worked, as far as I can tell. Of course shortly after the upgrade, a power surge blew up two […]
Some people think I’m strange for running Fedora as my primary operating system at home, but I’ve always liked it. The stuff I need to be stable is always rock-solid, and if there is a new feature in a program I use, I’ll get it a year before it goes into Ubuntu or RHEL. Poking, […]
