This is a bunch of generalizations on why Linux / Fedora Core 5 64 bit sucks. If you are considering switching to Linux, don't let this scare you off.
- I have to compile everything my own dang self. (OK, not really, but I've had to ./configure, make, make install more than my fair share of stuff)
- Anything that I really want to run will not compile without downloading at least one other dependency, plus the header files.
- If you want a program to do a specific task, there are at least 5 of them in source forge and they all are in pre alpha or abandoned or both.
- Queries in Google on how to fix a specific problem returns a bunch of results, problem is they are all for either a) a version of Linux I don't have or b) written about 5 years ago and are no longer relevant.
- One word: Permissions
