Announce Fedora 8
On this Autumn period where the best fruit are matured, it comes the
time to harvest the new Fedora release.
This new Fedora is named “WereWolf”, but do not be afraid this release
will bring you all the safety and stability that you could dream of.
The main point of this new version is without any doubt
SIMPLICITY
After 5 month of intense work, and in order to provide you the latest
technologies, this new release will be for you as for us a major evolution.
The major new feature are (among others):
Codek Buddy (aka codeina) :
By default Fedora does not provides non free codecs. This is sometime a
problem for the end users which has to install them on their own. This
is the reason why Codec Buddy has been created. This tools is able to
help you to install the required codecs to helps you to listen your MP3
or watch your movies, this is a very simple way.
PulseAudio: (NTBR)
Fedora 8 provides the last generation of sound server. The goal is to
offer to the music fan a great improvement to the support of low
latency. The new technology open the gate to new functionality like
decrease automatically the volume of the noise when you are watching a
movie.
System-config-firewall :
This new interface is much more accessible for the new Fedora user. It
is a very intuitive interface thanks to its configuration step by step.
System-config-selinux :
Nowadays, the configuration of SELinux is distinct from the one of the
firewall, in a new user friendly interface.
System-config-printer : (NTBR)
The printer configuration system has also been changed. During the
installation, it will now create automatically the printing queue, this
is the end of the steps where so much users has failed on the past.
NetworkManager 0.7 :
Entirely rewritten in order to satisfy to the wired and wireless
network, giving a higher speed of connection and a better integration
(thanks among other to the API Dbus and the WPA for the wireless).
Better laptop support :
Thanks to the information returned by “smolt” the Fedora team has
improved the management of the Suspend to Ram and Suspend to Disk
system, and the recognition of the multimedia keys on the keyboard.
Package management :
Pirut (a GUI for yum, the package manager) has been updated in order to
meet the users' demand. It is now able to manage directly the repository
from this GUI, simplifying a lot the work for the new users.
Fedora 8's theme :
For each new Fedora release a new theme is created. For Fedora 8, the
icons, the windows' border have also been changed to fit the theme. This
project is named “Nodoka”.
The desktop background is named “Infinity”. You could say, “yes, well it
is just a new desktop background”, however the main innovation for this
background is that it changes over the day, from the blue in the morning
to a relax and peacefull violet on the evening.
Virtualization :
Virtualization is an important part that more and more people use,
within this new release, virtualization has also evolved. The safety has
been greatly improved thanks to a new library that allows you to use the
SSH/TLS protocol to secure your access. The other modifications are on
the graphical interface of virt-manager, more user friendly and
providing the last functionalities.
FEL (Fedora Electronic Lab) :
This new product made in Fedora has been created by the SIG (Special
Interest Group) “embedded”. This project try to implement as much
applications as possible. This software and tools are focus on a
electronic theme in order to provide a live-cd to universities.
