More than a toy, PlayStation 3 does Linux (InfoWorld)More than a toy, PlayStation 3 does Linux (InfoWorld)Posted Nov 22, 2006 22:08 UTC (Wed) by eklitzke (subscriber, #36426)In reply to: More than a toy, PlayStation 3 does Linux (InfoWorld) by richo123 Parent article: More than a toy, PlayStation 3 does Linux (InfoWorld)
I'm not sure if you're joking or not... Redhat certainly employs more Linux developers than Canonical, especially kernel developers and developers for enterprise apps. Fedora also has much better Xen support than Ubuntu, and SELinux to boot.
Not that Ubuntu doesn't have better functionality/developers in certain areas... it's just that generally Redhat has more developers and includes a lot of bleeding edge software before other distros, including Ubuntu.

More than a toy, PlayStation 3 does Linux (InfoWorld) Posted Nov 22, 2006 23:32 UTC (Wed) by job (guest, #670) [Link] Also Red Hat keeps staying true to free/open source software.
More than a toy, PlayStation 3 does Linux (InfoWorld) Posted Nov 23, 2006 20:29 UTC (Thu) by anselm (subscriber, #2796) [Link] Fedora also has much better Xen support than Ubuntu, and SELinux to boot. And this is, presumably, exactly the functionality you can't do without when you look to run Linux on your PlayStation 3 ...
More than a toy, PlayStation 3 does Linux (InfoWorld) Posted Nov 23, 2006 22:27 UTC (Thu) by thebluesgnr (guest, #37963) [Link] Red Hat contributes so much compared to Canonical that you can't even make a comparison.
More than a toy, PlayStation 3 does Linux (InfoWorld) Posted Nov 23, 2006 23:42 UTC (Thu) by bronson (subscriber, #4806) [Link] Is there any chance both the Ubuntu and the Red Hat/Fedora fanboys might simmer down a bit? These comparisons are growing tiring. Almost makes me wistful for the Gentoo fanboys...
More than a toy, PlayStation 3 does Linux (InfoWorld) Posted Nov 23, 2006 23:57 UTC (Thu) by anselm (subscriber, #2796) [Link] Is there any chance both the Ubuntu and the Red Hat/Fedora fanboys might simmer down a bit? (I'm neither the one nor the other -- I run Debian on all my machines.) My point was that arguing for Fedora on the PlayStation 3 in favour of Ubuntu because Fedora comes with SELinux and better Xen support looks a bit ridiculous, since few people are likely to deploy a PlayStation 3 (of all machines) in a context where these features are required. As far as the ongoing dispute between Ubuntu and Fedora is concerned, whoever owns one of those PlayStations can install Yggdrasil Linux on it for all I care.
