Question about the difference between Red Hat Enterprise and Fedora.
hey guys, this is going to sound stupid possibly, but what's the difference between RHEL and Fedora? Besides RHEL being commercial, not free, and server oriented? I'm thinking about becoming RHCT/RHCE certified soon, and I was just wondering if Fedora would fulfill the requirements of helping me to get my RHCT/RHCE certification. thanks

It is only $60 (USD)...and if you are already spending money on the test, books, training material...why not spend the extra $60 and work with the "real thing"...
Fedora is a RH sponsored open source community project that, as much as anything, is a test bed for RH. Hence the current RHEL5 is based largely on FC6. We are now at Fedora 9.
ps - I think the acidemic version is only available at Berkley
(little joke there)
Edit - since CentOS really is RH unbadged and re-compiled, you'll have the same issue there. Perhaps look at resolving that issue first.

I honestly don't know what to do...I love CentOS, and I used on another desktop in my pre-wireless days, but i bought a new Dell not too long ago, and i can't get my Linksys WMP54G (with RaLink RT2561/RT61 chipset) to work in CentOS...I've tried both ndiswrapper and compiling the RaLink driver...nothing worked
