I consider myself a power user, and have been using linux for over 10 years. FC3 is by far the best distro I have tried (I have stayed with the RH line mostly). I have it running 24 hours a day, never have to reboot (except to activate the kernel updates), and have never had a single crash or instability. Yes, when I add new hardware (Like scanner, etc) I have to locate/install drivers, and configure things, but as yet I have not tried a device that I cannot get to work. > Example NetworkManager - WTF!? when it's running FC3 hardly get's IP > address. after you stop it - it's all cool.

If it isn't reported it isn't a bug. If it isn't reported, how can you expect anyone to know what the problem you see is, or take action to fix it? > I hope this makes it clear my point and where i'm going with it. > > Thanks. > > PS. again - it was clean install, updates constantly installed, and > kernel updates are not as upgrades but only as addition to the system, > so i can roll over to the old kernel. > Common guys, do not try to make end-user out of me :-) be serious here. > Good points here... One additional one.. If you refuse to post to buzilla, your missing the whole point of open-source. The community base participates in the release cycle to make the product better. With the 1000's of hours that went into this release, 5 minutes of your time to make a small contribution isn't much to ask. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and is protected by law.
