Tips and Tricks : Fedora Linux Distribution

I've been using this linux distro since I started using open source technology. I've also influenced my colleagues to us this for development purposes. Due to everything you need on developing application under open source standard is readuly available on this distro. It's like having an RedHat Linux free version.

One thing though is that out of the box it doesn't support third party packages. You'll need to stretch you technical skills to play an MP3 format music under Fedora.

Good thing that someone already complied a good How To's on this case.
