Been doing the thanksgiving thing, didn’t have time to catch up on things yet, but I am very happy with all the cool stuff going on this last bit:
- OpenSUSE 11.1 RC1 released – Excited for this release – they removed the EULA I was complaing about
- Updated ‘Prey’ Demo for linux released – gaming on Linux is something I want to see grow
- Steam Client for Linux libraries might have been found
- Hardware decoding using Nvidia – this is awesome for media center pc’s. If only ATI / AMD could get it together like Nvidia
I installed Fedora 10, this new boot thing doesn’t show up on any of my systems (Mine are all currently Nvidia and Intel chipsets), so that was not a big feature for me. I do like their default system fonts much more, a lot easier to read. USB Creator worked great, I installed from a usb key. Package manager is definitely not as good as OpenSUSE or Ubuntu, much harder to use and find good packages, but it’s sufficient. And you can see boot messages by hitting escape, which Usplash doesn’t do in Ubuntu.
