18.9.2009Fedora 11 now available
Fedora 11, the next release of the popular Linux distribution, is now available from the Fedora website. You can find full details of the major
improvements and changes in this latest release in our previous post about the launch of Fedora 11, but to mention just a few, the release claims to
have major speed improvements, boasting a 20 second startup, as well as overall speed improvements as ext4 is now used as the default file-system.
Another interesting feature is the ability to perform a minimal install, which amounts to about 500MB (at mount-point '/'), which should make
this release more appealing to users running servers, or machines with older hardware.

14.05.2008Linux Comparison: Fedora and conclusion
Fedora My first experience of Fedora came with Fedora 7, not long after I first used Ubuntu. I had difficulties getting it set up correctly,
especially when it came to downloading new applications, but once it was running the way I liked, I much preferred it to Ubuntu. My first impressions
of Fedora 10 are good, but there are some clear issues that need addressing, especially when it is put up against Ubuntu and openSUSE. Installation a
mixed experience. At first I didn't think I was going to be able to review Fedora. The LiveCD loaded to 100 percent within a few minutes, then sat
there, apparently doing nothing.

08.12.2008Fedora 11 due for release next Tuesday
Fedora 11, the next version of the popular Linux distribution, is due to be released on Tuesday next week, according to the Fedora Project website.
The new version features better performance, increased security, and several improvements. Some of the more interesting features and improvements
include a quicker startup time (no more than 20 seconds from power up to login screen, at least when first installed), ext4 being used as the
file-system by default (on Anaconda installs), as well as coming with the latest versions of GNOME or KDE. The move to ext4 as the default
file-system should mean users notice better performance overall, and the optimised startup should also result in better system performance.

28.05.2009Fedora to dump the 'Core'
In a mailing to the Fedora
development listing, Red
Hat's Bill Nottingham has
announced that effective the
next release there will be no
Fedora Core. The distribution
will be known only as
Fedora.
"Starting
with Fedora 7, there is no
more Core, and no more Extras;
there is only Fedora. One
single repository, built in
the community on open source
tools, assembled into whatever
spins the Fedora community
desires," Nottingham
wrote.
The mailing
also listed the planned
development cycle for Fedora 7
and outlined 28 new features
for the next release. Among
them, the separation of the
distro into different
"spins" (similar to Ubuntu)
-- Fedora Desktop, Fedora
Server and Fedora KDE.
Undoubtedly this is a
major shift in the development
of Fedora. The first beta is
due for release on January
30th, with a final release
scheduled for April 26th.

06.01.2007Q&A with Paul Frields at Red Hat
Just after Christmas, Neowin was given the chance for a community Q&A with Paul Frields of Red Hat. Paul has worked with Fedora since 2003, and became
the Fedora Project Leader in January last year. Along with a few other things, Paul is also chairman of the Fedora Project Board, which makes
decisions on how Fedora will move forward. As with the Q&A with Joe Brockmeier, Neowin's forum members came up with a great selection of
questions. One of the things I have always noticed about Fedora is the default desktop wallpaper, which gives a real sense of effort and refinement
when you see it. Did Fedora choose to go this route, or did it happen by chance?

31.10.2006Windows Home Server x64 Connector Announcement Coming at CES 2008
Good news is on the way for those of you who wish to use Windows Home Server with x64 home computers.
As many of you know, the
Windows Home Server Connector does not currently support x64 home computers, which has caused a lot of frustration and angst amongst early adopters of
the x64 platform. Microsoft have previously announced that they would provide x64 support for machines running Windows Vista (
check out our Q&A with
the WHS Team for more) - those of you running Windows XP x64 will have to upgrade, unfortunately.

08.04.2008Red Hat releases Fedora Core 6
On Tuesday, Red Hat released
Fedora Core 6, its newest
hobbyist version of Linux,
with an expandable new
installation routine and a
third try at incorporating Xen
virtualization software.
Fedora Core 6, free and
faster-moving alternative to
Red Hat Enterprise Linux, is
in effect a rough draft of Red
Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5,
to be released in late 2006 or
early 2007. The biggest change
coming with RHEL 5 is Xen,
open-source virtualization
software that lets multiple
operating systems run
simultaneously, each in its
own separate compartment
called a virtual machine.
Virtualization, a high-end
feature now arriving in x86
servers, lets a single server
replace several less
efficiently used ones.
Xen appeared in Fedora
Core 4 and 5, but the version
in Fedora Core 6 should be
close to what appears in RHEL
5, said Max Spevack, the
Fedora project leader. One
major feature is a graphical
administration tool to control
Xen virtual machines.
Also in Fedora Core 6
is Linux eye candy, based on
the AIGLX project and the
Compiz window manager. The
features require 3D graphics
video support, but permit
several features. Among them,
desktops of the graphical user
interface can be mapped to
faces of a virtual 3D cube
that users can rotate. And
windows can become transparent
and wobbly like Jell-O when
moved.
The Linux
version also switches to the
DejaVu font, an open-source
font project derived from
Bitstream's Vera typeface.

25.04.2006OpsMgr 2007 SP1 RC Console crashes on x64
Andrzej Lipka: When you try to open the Distributed Application Designer from a console installed on an x64 server you may see the console crashes
with .NET error in the Application Log (something of type badimageformat).
This seems to be a bug in SP1 RC. To work around it
use a console from an x86-32 (32 bit) machine to connect to the x64 server.
On OpsMgr 2007 RTM this issue does not exist.

Office 2010 Has Leaked!
The Technical Preview of Office 2010 has officially leaked! WZor.net uploaded a torrent a few hours ago for both the x86 and x64 versions of the
new Office suite.
Without further ado, I present:
Microsoft Office 2010 (x86)
AND
Microsoft Office 2010 (x64)
The x64
torrent doesn't seem to be very active at the moment, but over time, as it gains more seeders, hopefully it will pick up. We were achieving speeds of
up to 1000kbps during our download of the x86 version, so the torrent is going strong... That is, until the rest of the world picks up on it...
Download quickly!
While you eagerly await the end of your download, check out a screenshot gallery from WZor as well (the version pictured
in the screenshots is the x64 version).
The links in this article were obtained from WZor's homepage, http://wzor.net/indexx.html
