Linux distros are advancing everywhere. Not only servers but also on the desktop pc and notebooks. There are wild discussions, if Linux-Distributions are ready for serious business work or personal use. This critical review will deal with two long awaited Linux-distributions, Fedora Core 3 and Ubuntus Warty Warhog. Why these two? Because both feature Gnome 2.8 and it would not be a comparision on equal terms to compare Gnome to e.g KDE. Also, both use kernel 2.6.8+ and have their very own theme for the default desktop. Bluecurve for Fedora and Human for Ubuntu.

Seemed like it took me forever to convince people there was a problem with the 2.6.8 kernel. As soon as I loaded it on a machine on our network I we saw issues.
sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling=0
that takes care off the imediate problem, and
echo "net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling=0" >> /etc/sysctl.conf
at a root prompt should take care of it for good. It's been working for us. :-)
