Fedora 27: Like we mentioned yesterday η team του Fedora Project ανακοίνωσε την κυκλοφορία της νέας μεγάλης έκδοσης της διάσημης διανομής. Η νέα έκδοση Fedora 27, ήρθε με το GNOME 3.26 το οποίο διαθέτει νέο πίνακα ρυθμίσεων και μια πιο ολοκληρωμένη υπηρεσία searchs.
Fedora is one of the most popular GNU / Linux distributions. It is the result of the Fedora Project, a large community of volunteers, funded and generally supported by the famous Red Hat. This of course means, reliability ... RedHat.
The Fedora is free for anyone. So anyone can use, modify and distribute it. It is developed by people around the world who work together as a community. The Fedora Project or Fedora Project is open and everyone is welcome to join.
Fedora releases a new version every 6 months and you can see the Fedora's life cycle in the relevant wiki page of the project.
After a day I just decided to install the new version, although I think cutting edge distribution may be unstable and I should wait a little for the first update.
The simplest way to install is from the live dvd which includes the relevant application (Anaconda) of the Fedora installation.
Installation can also be done with netinstall CDs released by the distribution, but with Live DVD is much faster, since it does not download packages from the internet.
After installation, at first glance everything works. The distribution recognized the hardware of the computer, installed it, and after the first boot, there was full support for both Wi-Fi and the graphics card.
As you can see in the picture above, the new Fedora 27 wears Cinnamon 3.6 and Kernel 4.13.
After I added the RPM Fusion repo from the terminal, I updated the system. (below are the two commands)
rpm -vh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-27.noarch.rpm
dnf update
Please note that Yum Extender does not exist from 27, and was replaced by dnfdragora and dnfdragora-updater.
The new distribution uses a dark theme (Ark-Dark) in spin cinnamon I installed.
The cinnamon control panel seems to have been freshened as you will see below:
After installing, I added a swapfile (yes fedora supports the feature) for better RAM performance.
Below are the terminal commands. In case you are interested, use them in the order listed:
sudo fallocate -l 4G / swapfile sudo chmod 600 / swapfile sudo mkswap / swapfile sudo swapon / swapfile
After the above commands will create a swapfile on your system, we will instruct fstab to load it automatically after every rebootmovement. We will open fstab with the nano application
sudo nano / etc / fstab
and we will add the following line at the end of fstab
/ swapfile swap sw sw sw 0 0
