Yep. Like I said, when they do updates, they do UPDATES. I may start checking once a day, depending on time.

Well - posting this from my Fedora and it still works fine in Virtualbox. Actually I quite like the KDE integration of Fedora13.
But it can never replace my Arch. Arch is like giving birth, but when it is done it sure is a keeper. Fedora is a nice "out of the box" thing. No complaints - but I am not in love.
Maybe I need more time? I'll play arround with it from time to time, but that is so much more fun in Arch too. :shock:
It might be just me. I like to play with the interesting girls not neccessarily the pretty ones - Fedora is the pretty one. :?

Um, should we really go there with Arch in this thread again?

Yes, let's do. I WANT BACK IN MY ARCH! I MISS IT!

No we stay on topic :oops: But a small comparison might be forgiven - right :?: Fedora 13 has the printer Hardware detection - are you impressed?

... Dunno. Don't have a printer.

I do know I'm quite unimpressed with the way my browsers keep randomly shutting down on me in Fedora.

yum install rhythmbox gstreamer-plugins-ugly gstreamer-plugins-bad gstreamer-ffmpeg

I have all that installed (rpm-fusion versions).

It seems to happen mostly (but not only) when I click up iTunes links. Gonna have to stop that. I don't do iTunes anyway.

Great to have you back, MajorLinux. Stick around while you can. :)
