Hi A very informative review covering a wide range of improvements coming up in Fedora 11. http://satyajitranjeev.wordpress.com/2009/05/13/what-to-expect-from-fedora-11/ "Volume Control: When I installed the beta looking at the feature list was impressed that I could connect my bluetooth head set and configure it with simplicity. But the installation didn’t get the job done. It detected my Jabra Headset, that is all. Then after a few updates, I was bowled! All I had to do was pair it with my system and POP it shows up in the volume configuration. Simply brilliant" "Presto: This is a plug-in for ‘yum’. It enables delta rpm support in Fedora. Delta rpm is an rpm file which stores the difference between versions of a package. For example updating the open office suite would nearly take a 100 M download, using deltarpms you can save up to 60 % that is you’d download only about 40M. It is not enabled by default so you will have to ‘yum’ it." "DeviceKit: It is similar to HAL and it is to eventually replace it. It is a device management tool. One new software which is included in the devicekit is the Palimpsest Disk Utility. It checks your hard disk and notifies you the state of your drive. It also checks the status of your disks at login time and provides fixes. You can do basic file system operation in it like deletion of partition or renaming a label and others." "This release has got me more excited than 10. The features as the wiki says it “dwarfs any other release”. It looks very promising and the future for Fedora seems brighter. It is definitely a brilliant milestone after 10 releases." Rahul -- Fedora-marketing-list mailing list Fedora-marketing-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-marketing-list
