So your REAL issue is that Fedora doesn't include a proprietary program in either its default install or repository by default, and you feel that having to look farther than Software Installer is a waste of time? How could you possibly survive Windows then?There is no fundamental difference that I know of between Ubuntu and
Fedora with regard to virtualization.
With regard to flash support, Ubuntu supports it more or less
transparently and, if you want to use it on Fedora, you can spend the
rest of your life on forums like this one. You don't really want me
here forever, do you?
The difference between Fedora and Ubuntu that really matters, and if
you don't want to hear it, just stop reading my posts, is that the
people who use Ubuntu are generally more like the people who use
Windows and Canonical knows it and caters to them. Red Hat (along
with Fedora and its manifestly snotty community) turns up its nose at
such users. It doesn't want them.
Thus, if I need to find the *exact* Ubuntu driver for the very popular
webcam I actually use, not only can I find it, but I can also find
people who use it and talk about how to use it. If there are such
users in the Fedora community, I have so far not encountered them.
Red Hat threw its amateur users overboard to maximize shareholder
value. A few loyal diehards hung on. This loyal diehard can no
longer afford to.
