Ken, I don't recall hearing about your PDF-generation problems (my head is full), but I just wanted to state for the record that myself and other coworkers are using it (PDF generation from OOo) without a problem. OpenOffice is fitting in *quite* nicely, in our multi-platform environment. RTF is still the best way I've seent o pass docs between free Office and $$$ Office....
FWIW, Ben PS - can you tell any more about the nvidia problems with FC2? I would like to upgrade my old redhat systems to FC, but I use nvidia! Also, are you using apt-rpm and freshrpms? Curious if these problems are only with the default FC2 or are they deeply embedded issues that can only be [reasonably] solved with a newer release?
