Fedora Core 5 Released with a BANG !
Fedora Core is an operating system and platform, based on Linux, that is always free for anyone to use, modify and distribute, now and forever. It is developed by a large community of people who strive to provide and maintain the very best in free, open source software and standards. Fedora Core is part of the Fedora Project, sponsored by Red Hat, Inc.
Now available for x86, x86_64 and PPC systems! It has been just over 9 months since Fedora Core 4 was released, and a lot of change and innovation has occurred in the Linux community in that time. A lot of those innovations have found their way into Fedora Core 5 (FC 5).
Fedora Core 5 features some new desktop applications. They include:
- Tomboy, a new ("simple and handy") note-taking tool
- F-Spot, which manages digital photographs
- Beagle desktop search, which resembles Apple's Sherlock or Google Desktop on PCs and helps users find something in a chat log, an email, or a web page they visited days ago
Power management has been improved, thanks to Gnome Power Manager, included in this release. Additionally, the Gnome screensaver package is included, with a new Fedora screensaver to accompany it, the team said.
Fedora Core 5 also features updated versions of old favorites such as Firefox 1.5 and OpenOffice.org 2.0.2, a new enhanced database front end, a mail merge wizard, and better PDF-exporting capabilities. The latest versions of both Gnome 2.14 and KDE 3.5 bring added options to the Fedora desktop, according to the project.
Better integrated virtualization and a Java run-time stack.
Finally, the Fedora Core 5 desktop features new advances in multimedia applications built around the free Xiph.org codecs, the team said.
