      1

      On our ThinkPad T41 test notebook, eye-candy effects such as window-border translucency and an OS X Expos–like window arranger were easy to enable and didnt require a separate closed-source driver.

      5

      Security-Enhanced Linux offers an estimable security boost, but it doesnt do any good if it is disabled by users who are fed up with mysterious policy conflicts. The new troubleshooter tool is great for tracing SELinux-based software conflicts.

      Fedoras software package updater, Pup, now includes a taskbar-based notifier applet.

      FC6s command line Xen management tool, Virsh, is handy for remote management of Fedora Xen installations.

      8

      Fedoras new graphical client for managing Xen virtual machines looks impressive, but needs more work.
