should i try fedora

Rangeen, who happens to be the only Fedora ambassador in our college did a very good work by creating a local Fedora repository http://lug.nitdgp.ac.in/repository/fedora-local/ . I am an openSUSE user and I am satisfied with it, we also have a local packman mirror http://lug.nitdgp.ac.in/repository/packman/ which happens to be the biggest repo for openSUSE. But the only problem is that it is not a complete repo, I mean while installing packages I need to download some packages from the internet also. But the Fedora repo which also has the updates is nearly a complete repo.

So I am thinking about trying Fedora now.

    rpmfusion.org repositories and Livna (just for libdvdcss) are probably good ones to have a local mirror of, if you are running Fedora. Good luck.

      You can download the ISO from http://software.opensuse.org/. Or you can purchase Linux For You magazine of Feb 09. There was a DVD of openSUSE 11.1 in that edition.
