Suggest you use the LFS + BLFS ( http://www.linuxfromscratch.org ). It is most updated and runs very fast. It is a fun to build your own system. There are so many packages need to be updated in FC3. FC3 even disabled the mp3 support in the standard XMMS....
Yes. I select (install) the packages I needed from the source codes. Not directly use the distributions. Refer on the above (B)LFS book. There is a section in the book talked about the Nvidia driver.
still, the coaxial digital audio output does not work, no sound out to my receiver at all.
Plus , need some help with chinese input and chinese font, it's ugly.
