Description Ian 2006-05-26 18:53:03 UTC
Description of problem:
I would like to suggest including a definition of "x86" in the glossary of Linux 
terms. I have decided to get to know Linux (after years of frustration with 
Windows) and was pleased to find an installation guide for Fedora;
http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/fedora-install-guide-en/ 

but instantly I come up against the first problem, 'cos it says "currently 
focused on x86". Wot that mean?

But excellent! There is a glossary at 
http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/jargon-buster/fedora-glossary.html 

...but unfortunately there is no mention of x86 (sniff).

I hope I found the right place to make this suggestion? I am desperate to 
investigate options other than windows, but it doesn't seem to be quite so easy 
for a Linux absolute newbie to find out where to start...
