Has been discussed in the afore mentioned thread very extensively. Fact is that the problem is bound to a special, but not exactly known combination of hardware. Most users are not affected. And the problem came up very late in the test process. > This is going to bring the perceived quality level of FOSS down to > what the FUDders are screaming about. I think nobody is happy about it. But there are well known operating systems which had the same problem some times ago - probably by intention (in contrast to Red Hat). There is no reason to specifically blame FOSS. And the Fedora Project does not aim to the computer novize or windows user. Those people, who may have a lot of trouble to recover from that fault, shouldn't use Fedora, but probably Red Hat Workstation or one of the other distros (Mandrake is a good choice). > Is this the intention? As said before - no reason for so much excitement. Peter
