Fedora Core 6

**K-B** · 10-30-2006, 08:11 AM

Anyone here using the latest release, (Zod), and is it worth upgrading from Fedora Core 5? I don't really feel like going to the trouble unless there is something really special with FC6.

I tried FC-6, I re-installed FC-5. I may try 6 again sometime soon. Since I've had some time to think about the issues I had with it, perhaps I will be more able to outsmart them next time.

There have been some performance issues that have been fixed in FC6, though like any new releases of Fedora Core I like to hold off a little while.

Yep, that's what I decided, I'll hold off until the bugs have been ironed out.
Then I'll decide if it's worth upgrading.

I did try it for a few days, but I wasn't impressed enough to keep it.

Other than the improvements to the GUI Package Manager's performance (prefer yum anyways), there is nothing in FC6 that makes me want to upgrade.
