[juneau-lug] Re: FC6 upgrade report

I am testing it out on a few computers in our office. There are still alo=

with this release. I think the fedora guys should have waited a little lo=

Above all the bugs and crap. The release is very nice and features alot o=
f the same things that drove me to start using Ubuntu for my Primary OS. H=
owever, I still cannot get AIGLX to work even with the newest beta driver=

Subject: [juneau-lug] FC6 upgrade report

Decided to try the upgrade of my T41 laptop to FC6. Everything appears=20
to be working. Did have to disable a couple of repos and update yumex=20
with yum from the commandline. Looks like there are quite a few updates=20
available from Extras, so tomorrow I'll take care of them. BTW, the new=20
version of yumex works a lot faster, as does=A0=A0yum itself.

Haven't done much with it yet, but I does seem much faster. I'm using=20
KDE and the apps open much quicker than under FC5. Java is working.=20
Celestia, which is an opengl app, is really smooth and fast on the xorg=20
driver. I've opened Blender, also opengl, but I haven't done anything=20
with it yet to check the performance, but if it is like Celestia, it=20
should be awesome.

Guess that's it for now. I need to backup my desktop system before=20
trying the upgrade on it. Will let you know how that one goes.
