<br>One thing that I think can go to Ubuntu's favor is the ease of setting<br>up Multimedia with non-free packages. Fedora 8 has decided to make that<br>a bigger pain in the ass than it was in FC6. If you want to get the
<br>packages easily, you can pay 30 bucks or so (huh?). If you have mad<br>hax0r ski11z like me, you can find them somehow and cram them in there,<br>but I was losing faith, there. That's why I wasn't going to chime in on
<br>the DVD discussion. I haven't even gone there yet.<br></blockquote></div><br>Since you're using 8, another quirk I ran into is that Firefox will tie up my audio. I haven't really nailed it down yet but sometimes, to use Ekiga, I have to close Firefox. "Probably" if I have used Youtube or something.
