No, but it sure feels like the right thing to do. :roll:Originally Posted by WILL
I kind of agree. I don't feel I have the best dist. Whenever I need to install anything that is not in the official dist, I get version problems, have to dig up rpm's elsewhere, cross my fingers and install. No, it doesn't always work.IMHO RedHat sucks the big one! I'm serious though. Feldora Core is the result of the RedHat company --which Linus worked for for a time, btw-- trying to be all commercial like Microsoft. Linux and Microsoft are not good combinations. Hence the mess that is RedHat. Sure it's stable, great... but it's like some half breed thing that it's quite with the GNU standard anymore.
I had two installations of Debian dying on me when running updates. X died when I updated the NVidia drivers. Bad luck? I don't know.I recommend Debian, but thats me. It's like Slackware, but with a really dependable(the best out of all of them!) packaging system and it conforms to ALL the Linux standards. Plus it does a rather good job of keeping up to date with all the major things like Apache, PHP, mysql, gimp, kde, etc, etc...
BTW, I think we are off-topic now. Sorry about that.
