Frugalware 1.1pre2 (Getorin) disponible

Traducciones: EN, FR

El Equipo de Desarrolladore de Frugalware tiene el placer de anunciar la disponiblidad de Frugalware 1.1pre2, the second technical preview of the upcoming 1.1 stable release.

A short and incomplete list of changes since 1.1pre1:

  • Improvements:
    • An x86_64 flash plugin is now part of the default installation.
    • Just a FYI in case you are using the ext3 filesystem, which is our current default: though we ship the latest stable kernel, we did not switch the default value of the ‘data’ option to ‘writeback’, the feature which still makes ext3 seem more robust than ext4 at the time of writing. See here for more information.
  • Paquetes actualizados:
    • GNU C library 2.10.1
    • Linux kernel 2.6.30
    • Xorg 7.4 with xorg-server 1.6
    • GNOME 2.26.3
    • Xfce 4.6.1
    • GCC 4.4.0
