Have you tried playing DVDs and burning CDs? If yes, did you have to fiddle to get it working, or was it okay out of the box?


No to both, sorry. I would be surprised if DVD playing worked out of the
box, as DVDs are encrypted and RedHat/Fedora seems to frown on
distributing the deCSS library. I *think* the totem movie player is
installed, so playing unencrypted DVDs may work. I will try it out
tonight.

As for CD burning, it has worked out of the box with all other versions
of RedHat that I used, so if it did not work out of the I would be
surprised and disappointed. I have not burnt anything yet as I have
nothing to burn :)



I'm tempted to flag Fedora Core 2 for the installfest based on the reviews that I'm seeing. They specifically state that issues with FC2 mean that it isn't for Joe Public first time user.
