I have been using Linux for almost 3 years now, starting with Red Hat 8 and then going from 9 to FC 1-3. I liked each of the Red Hat and Fedora distros except for Fedora Core 3. That one blows big time. I finally became so frustrated with it that I switched to Mandrake 10.1 because I couldn't get anything to work properly. KDE wouldn't activate the screensaver, the sound was turned off by default (who's stupid idea was that!) and it was a mess to figure that out. But most frustrating is the dependency hell that so commonly follows Red Hat distros. All of this caused me to try Mandrake 10.1 and it just flat out works. No huss no fuss. I'm not saying that Mandrake is the defacto standard that everyone should use. It just works for me! Hopefully Red Hat will get on the ball and make FC4 something worthwhile, then I may try it out.
