I liked the Fedora Interface, but it lacks several packages that I use (Kodi comes to mind, but there were others) SE Linux is always reporting security issues and makes enabling any networking feature a royal pain. Worse, when something doesn't work there is a fraction of the support articles and posts on the Internet. They also changed the package manager from Yum, so a lot of new things to learn since I last used 17. At least they seem to have fixed the network management. Anyway, the recent upgrade to 25 killed my display adapter, and after spending way too much time trying to sort out and reinstalling, I switched back to Ubuntu for desktop. I still use Debian for servers/beaglebone. I also like having a common package manager and config files for both systems. YMMV....

  Try using it. It doesn't have the same modules as Ubuntu, so the answer is to load from a separate source. Even then, Kodi Remote wouldn't work (SELinux?), no visualizations, sound subsystem issues and I was done. I have bettter things to do with my time.
