FC3T1 is indeed FC2 + tons and tons of fixes .  .  .


Yesterday I had a need to re-install FC2 (for a test system to be demoed in Houston). It has no problem with my nForce2 based motherboard (I hope this also serves as a clarification of my previous statement).

For all OSS systems, we should realize that the motto "the devil is in the details" couldn't be more true. After installation, I ran yum update (this actually moves FC2 past the FC3T1 for patches), followed by "yum install" to install mplayer, mplayerplug-in, flash-plugin, and xmms-mp3. Finally, I went to Fedora rawhide to install OpenOffice.org 1.1.2 (there are major differences b/t 1.1.2 and 1.1.1, and the benefits outweigh the risks of installing from rawhide).

After making sure everything is working, I went to Mozilla to load CJK language modules, as well as installed RealPlayer-10 rpm. I won't go into details, but as far as internationalization goes, this is the best system in the history of computing, and is still improving. wayne
