I am somewhat converted over from always using SuSE. As I have seen in the past though, not all Fedora installation solutions appear to have been tested. I cannot make it install, so for now back to Fedora 8 I go. Forgive me for not being able to provide details on why it wouldn't install, I am at work now :) and don't have the details with me.

You don't have to use F9 if you don't like it yet; just wind back to F8 for a while. In the mean-time, F9 will establish KDE4 and Firefox3 and stabilise them fro everybody's benefit in a few months. It was a shame about the NVIDIA drivers, but maybe NVIDIA will eventually learn that open source is the only way for Linux drivers ... Rather a lot of whinging above I think.

Castania's comments. I am a long time user and supporter of Fedora (FC1 to present). I found this release to be severly crippled by some of the included packages. KDE is unusable, Firefox 3 is slow/buggy and xorg was a major hurdle for those of us who need a 3rd party driver. Certainly you have no control on how some of these packages are managed, but you do have control on what you can include in the new releases. It would have been better to release F9 with out all these "beta" stage packages. I am very disappointed and likely will go back to F8 until things stabilize. I know we are dealing with a "bleeding edge" product here but most of us still need to use our computers too. Thank you for all your hard work, but lets keep in mind the needs of the users...

I skipped a few of the Core releases, but decided it was time to upgrade again from F7 to Sulphur. IMHO, you should have waited to release F9; it has all the feel of a beta product. Unlike previous releases where a few things had to be tweaked, F9 was released with no login manager, (apart from just looking around) KDE is practically un-usable, Firefox 3 BETA (so buggy I switched to Opera), and a few much loved packages haven't made it into the repository list ("yet," we're told). Sorry, folks, this is the most ill-timed released I've ever seen from Fedora; it just wasn't ready. I'm wondering if the calendar is going to dictate future releases more than product readiness: if so, Fedora is on the wrong track and user base will slip. I have used RH/Fedora since RH7.2.

I am a developer (C, C++, Qt, Java) but I also ran a MySQL server and apache server - I don't see these servers as something I can start up with the 'Services' GUI. Also, what happened to all of the 'Programming' submenus? Only devhelp and glade designer survived the 'upgrade'. Why the separate selections for Desktop and Server?

I thought I'd be smart and save my xorg.conf file from the previous system I was running (Fedora Core 7), but when I try that, Fedora Core 9 won't boot at all.
