Fedora Core The beta version of Fedora 9 has been released. It comes with GNOME 2.22, KDE 4.0.2, Firefox 3.0 beta 5, PackageKit, Kernel 2.6.25-rc5, and much more. "The Beta release is the point at which we really want and need the wider community's help with testing. Beta is a point of much greater stability in Fedora's development branch, but some fixes continue to occur to improve usability, performance, and stability."

buff: as many distros are now using PulseAudio and we've all been testing it and contributing patches, it should be a lot smoother in all upcoming distros (F9, Mandriva 2008 Spring, Ubuntu 8.04 etc) than it was in F8.

That is good to know people are polishing pulseaudio. I like the idea but it annoys me when it dies for unknown reasons and it often times makes a lot of static noise when volume goes to zero between songs. It also has conflicts with the Flash plugin too. I get more crashes now using Flash under pulseaudio. I sent Adobe a bug report.

In Fedora, you might want to try to update to the 0.9.8 which is rawhide currently that fixes a number of issues. For the flash plugin issue, make sure you follow
