News: Fedora 12 is NOW AVAILABLE!!

November 19, 2009 – 10:31 am

I’ve been running Fedora 12 for about a month now (Beta first, Alpha before that).  It’s the best Fedora to date.

Everything Just Works(TM).

I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to have a system working with great sound, awesome graphics and very usable GNOME and KDE desktops.  I really like the new NetworkManager features and the ability to tether any device, vpnc and other easy-to-configure options.  KVM support is much improved with the new libguestfs improvements.

Fedora 12 media should be available on December 3, if you are a Fedora Ambassador in North America, start requesting media* for your events (and ambassador kits).

You can get your copy today!!

Cheers,

Herlo

SLLUG Daytime: RSSCloud, what is it and why should I care?

November 4, 2009 – 2:59 pm

This month we’re getting back on track with the Salt Lake Linux User Group Daytime meeting at BetaLoft.  Our presenter this month is C.R. Oldham and he had this to say about the presentation:

RSSCloud is an open protocol which creates a loosely-coupled Twitter-like network of people and 140 character status messages.  In plainer language, it enables real-time status updates on anything that can be pushed via RSS.  Why should you care?  Come to the SLLUG daytime SIG meeting to find out.

More information can be found at http://rsscloud.org/

So why not come down to BetaLoft next Wednesday, November 11, from 11:30am-1pm and learn about RSSCloud.

BetaLoft SLC
357 West 200 South Suite 201
Salt Lake City, UT, 84101

Cheers,
