Released on 10/24/06 -This release includes support for the AIGLX graphics framework which is Red Hat's competitive project to Novell's XGL. AIGLX provides enhanced 3-D graphics capabilities by leveraging the power of graphics acceleration hardware. Performance is also improved in FC 6 by as much as 50 percent, thanks to dynamic linking for application using DT_GNU_HASH. And security is made a bit easier with a new graphical troubleshooting tool for SELinux. First introduced in Fedora Core 2 in 2004, SELinux implements mandatory access controls on the kernel. FC 6 will also improve upon its support for Xen Virtualization, which was introduced in the current Fedora Core 5 build. FC 6 includes a GUI virtualization manager that makes it easier than before to setup and manage virtual machines.
