Core 6 for a while.

In general things that Ubuntu didn't have down pat, RedHat seemed to manage. The two biggest things were the Common Access Card support, and for me, the ability to actually get SameTime installed. I used RedHat for a while. Its still installed, but I'm not using it right now. The last straw was when the installed version of Eclipse deleted all of my .CVS directories from my source folder. Its happened in the Windows version too, but only to files checked out from the branch. This was a mainline check out and I was ticked. I switched back to Windows for now. I'm going to go back to Redhat soon, but I have software to finish. I liked the experience in Linux better for the most part, but I don't have time to be fixing problems like that right now. The major draw back to it is that now that the CVS information is gone, I have to learn how to move just the modified files out of the source directory so that I can do a new check out. Too much time for now. I know how to do it in Windows.
