Fedora 14 (Laughlin) Released
By J.A. Watson

Yesterday afternoon, right on schedule, the Fedora Project 
<http://fedoraproject.org/> released Fedora 14, aka "Laughlin". The 
Release Announcement 
<http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_announcement> gives a quick 
"What's New" look at the release (which saves me having to repeat it 
here), and the Release Notes 
<http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/14/html/Release_Notes/index.html> 
provide extensive details on this release.

 From what I can tell so far it is, as expected and as usual, a very 
good distribution. I have downloaded the 32- and 64-bit versions, and 
installed it without problem so far on systems with Intel, AMD/ATI and 
VIA cpus and graphic controllers, and Intel, Broadcom and Atheros wired 
and wireless network interfaces. The only special requirement I have run 
into so far is that the Broadcom WiFi adapter has to be downloaded from 
the Fedora Unity <http://fedoraunity.org/> web site. This is a very 
simple procedure, which I described previously in a post about Fedora 14 
Beta 
<http://www.zdnet.co.uk/blogs/jamies-mostly-linux-stuff-10006480/fedora-14-beta-shaping-up-very-nicely-10020572/>.
