This article, which generated quite a bit of controversy in the comments section, detailed a new user's 'frustrations' with the new release. The latest article , written by yours truly, is rather lengthy, explaining such things as adding 3D drivers, missinghttp://www.osnews.com/story.php?news_id=1883 MP3 functionality, DVD decoding, using APT with RHL, and customizing Red Hat's modified KDE. At the end, I wrap up with my impression -- as a simple user -- of this 'crippled' KDE implementation. Of course, you can also check out this story, which takes a look at RH 8.0 from 'Joe and Jane User's' perspective."
