Kororaa is a respin of Fedora, giving you the media codecs and setting up the third-party repositories. For version 17, I used the 32-bit Gnome disk.
The result is, of course, only as good as Fedora. The software is generally sound, although running from the CLI gave rather more warnings than I like to see. Like several others, I have problems with Fedora’s media players: VLC, Gnome-mplayer, and Totem all failed; only Gxine worked. In one respect Kororaa is more trouble than Fedora: the Gnash plug-in is not installed in Firefox, so one has to get Flash from Adobe.
The good things about Fedora, and hence Kororaa, are the excellent configuration tools and the high level of security offered by default. It’s still far ahead of any Debian derivative in these respects.
