Что нового в Fedora 14?
Пользователи ПК
Проект Fedora занимается тем, что бесплатно предоставляет опыт разработки свободного программного обеспечения пользователям всех категорий. За последние несеолько выпусков Fedora была проделана огромная работа по созданию свободной среды рабочего стола для любого пользователя. Также проделана работа по улучшению сетевого программного обеспечения, управления программным обеспечением, поддержке аппаратных средств и другого функционала. За последний цикл было осуществлено много работы по исправлению ошибок и повышению стабильности. Это делает Fedora 14 идеальной компьютерной платформой для любого, кто хочет сделать свой компьютер продуктивнее. Если Вы студент, родитель, офисный работник, программист, художник, инженер или писатель - Fedora - это то, что вам нужно.
In addition to continually extending and improving the desktop environment, Fedora 14 also features these desktop enhancements:
- libjpegturbo. Users who load and save images will see significant performance improvement when looking at images in the popular JPEG format. This library practically halves processing time on most systems - and even those utilizing hardware more than a few years old will see a slight speed boost.
- Spice (Simple Protocol for Independent Computing Environment). This framework brings the notion of 'thin client' computing to life, allowing end users to have support on their virtualized desktop for the experience they've become accustomed to in a typical desktop environment - sound, display, device support, as well as rudimentary support for 2D graphics and encryption.
System Administrators
If you spend your day managing how other people around you use Linux, Fedora 14 is loaded with features that will make your life even easier. Whether you want to migrate new users to a Linux environment or experiment with the newest in open-source technologies to give yourself an edge, Fedora has all the tools you need. Remote administration takes another step forward with Fedora 14's inclusion of ipmiutil. With many modern servers containing hardware with IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface) support, managing and administering your hardware from afar is even easier with ipmiutil's capabilities, which increase IMPI capabilities even further with features like Serial-over-LAN and identity LED manipulation. Are you thinking of managing servers in a cloud environment? Fedora 14 will be the first of many successive releases to come to be available on EC2. These official images will allow system administrators to try out the leading-edge features of Fedora 14 in the cloud, and experience the potential future of Fedora's downstream distributions like Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Systemd. And speaking of the future - check out Fedora 14's tech preview of systemd, a next-generation replacement for Upstart and System V init. Turn this feature on with just a few simple commands, and experience improvements such as parallel and on-demand starting of services, faster boot times, and the ability to track processes, daemons, sockets, and even take snapshots of your system state. |
Developers
Better debugging tools. We've got the latest advances in GDB, the GNU debugger, so you can perform all sorts of analyses to squash bugs in code. When you launch GDB you'll immediately notice how fast it loads. That's because we generate the indexes it needs in advance in our "debuginfo" packages, saving you time so you can get to your real work. Need a rundown of memory allocations? The new Python scripting feature in GDB lets you use a new "heap" command (from the gdb-heap package) to examine, record, and diff them, to see how your app uses memory. GDB even shows you dynamic memory allocations -- so you take control of your code. And since this capability comes from Python, you're limited mostly by your imagination, and you can take debugging as far as you want. |
Love working in the most up-to-date languages? Fedora 14 has what you need. Thinking of coding in Python 3 down the road? Get ready now with Fedora's inclusion of Python 2.7, which has increased efficiency in modules, many of which are now feature complete with their Python 3.1 equivalents. Prefer Perl? Check out Rakudo Star, a Parrot virtual-machine -based implementation of Perl 6; it also happens to be the most actively developed implementation. And if you like object-oriented languages, the D programming language may just be for you: it combines the power of languages such as C and C++ with the programmer productivity of modern languages like Ruby and Python. |

How to Get Started
Intrigued? Want to give Fedora 14 a try?
You can visit http://fedoraproject.org/get-fedora to download a LiveCD, regardless of what operating system you're running. This will give you a working version of Fedora, complete with common applications, all running off your CD drive - your hard drive won't be touched at all. And when you're ready, installation is just a click away.
Want an even more enjoyable way to use Fedora, risk-free? Try the Live USB option. You can use the same download to create a bootable USB stick so you can take Fedora with you anywhere you go. It works great with netbooks without CD drives, too. Check out the instruction page here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_and_use_Live_USB
And if you're running Fedora 13, upgrading is easy. Refer to our handy documentation for help.
