As they say, timing is everything.

I just happened to be reading pclinuxonline.com and there is a link to a
review of Aurox posted there
(http://www.linuxforums.org/news/article-26572.html)

Aurox (http://www.aurox.org/en/) appears to be based upon Fedora, so in
theory, FC RPMS would be the way to go.

>From what I am reading, Aurox is using the 2.6.7 kernel, which would be
the default in FC 2, though FC 2 is now using 2.6.8 after updates.

Note that I say to use FC RPMS "in theory", since there is always the
possibility that something in Aurox has been tweaked. Also keep in mind,
that the FC 2 default installation of Xfce was broken and required some
user intervention to get it to work properly:
