[sf-lug] Linux on speed...

[Andy Grimm]

The plan is something like 6-9 months, but it typically stays closer
to 6.  Like it or not, the main purpose of Fedora is to be a proving
ground for new stuff destined for Red Hat's enterprise releases, so
they want to release often.  They had to get FC6 out now because it's
essentially a public beta for RHEL5.  I don't really think there's any
way to be a Fedora user on the server side *except* in "legacy mode."

FWIW, I'm running FC6 on my Dell D620 laptop.  It's not flawless, but
I carried over some configuration info from my previous OS (SLED 10),
and I think that may be te reason for a couple of little glitches
(evolution acting weird, strange font sizes, etc.).  On the bright
side, things like speed-stepping and suspending to memory are working
quite well, and istanbul (desktop recording to ogg video) is fun to
play with.

Just my two cents.
