The lack of quality video drivers is destroying Fedora.
by Nirmal Pathak 30 Sep '08

30 Sep '08

Hi All, I've found interesting article written by some Fedora Fan. --snip-- Guess why? Not quality video drivers leave the machine with only some default drivers and that is bad because some users would like to play games or start some eye-candy things like Compiz Fusion. This is negative effect to the community and some users of the Fedora community leave Fedora in interest to other distros that have that drivers. --snip-- I too agree with above snip from article to certain extent. I wonder what Fedora project is upto taking above thing in consideration. --snip-- I am strong supporter of the ideals of the open source and really love Fedora. I notice some mismanagement and lack of cooperation between official and unofficial Fedora projects. Probably we all would benefit more if the official Fedora updates and the Livna updates were more synchronized. And update of the kernel does not leave the system without video drivers or other vital parts. In that case, more and more users will leave Fedora and migrate to other GNU/Linux distributions even if they are "evil" or have signed suspicious contracts with 3th party companies... --snip-- What you guys think about above snip from the Article?? Link to Article: http://spreadfedora.org/sf/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=61&Ite… Have Fun! -- Nirmal D Pathak. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I was born free! No Gates and Windows can restrict my Freedom!! Enjoy Linux! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Introduction: Avi Alkalay, former Linux Impact Team, IBM Brazil
by Avi Alkalay 30 Sep '08

30 Sep '08

Hello I am on this list for many weeks now but never wrote anything. I spent my last 6 years working on the Linux team on IBM Brazil and LA. No I took another job still on IBM, but now related to industry solutions. And I miss the Linux community. I am still very involved with standardization initiatives as ODF. I represent IBM Brazil in our local National Body (ABNT) and worked for months in the "non-standardization" of OOXML. Hope to help local and global Linux initiatives. Regards, Avi -- http://avi.alkalay.net/blog
