Journal phreak03's Journal: John Vs. The Prism Chipset

Ok Gang, So I've been useing mandrake for ohh say... since 9.2 came out... been enjoying it real nice. Well I move off campus into an apartment and actually have to use my wi-fi card.... PROBLEM, mandrake 10.0comunity dosn't seem to like it.. I get terrified and have to boot windows to even be able to search for an awnser.. I try PClinuxOS as an alternative temp solution (WAY too buggy, but still nice). I end up going back to an old flame of mine... Fedora... I had heard both bad and good about Core 2... The truth is, its both... I can allready tell its about as buggy as mandrake 10 Beta 2, but it shows promise, just like that great beta did, and after about an hour, i got the wi-fi working (it still thinks its a standard eathernet connector somehow though).
I'm going to Try to Journal my experiances going from KDE mandrake 10.0 comunity, to Fedora 2 and its less exiteing world of nome.

I've desided against APT, and will stick with YUM+ a list of nice repositories, i got over at
http://www.fedorafaq.org/
I'm going to miss The URPMI, and the PLF mirrors... Sad times these are...
But I hope to learn the ins and outs of redhat, and maybe i'll get my ass up and work on RHCT one of these days...
