With the release of Locris, the support for Getorin is discontinued. It is highly recommended to upgrade to our new stable release, as there will be no more security and bug fixes for Getorin.

We have released FSA617 to FSA636 for Getorin. That means 20 security problems were issued in half a year.

If you update to Locris, it will also fix the following vulnerability:

• #4054 - firefox

El Equipo de Desarrolladore de Frugalware tiene el placer de anunciar la disponiblidad de Frugalware 1.2, our twelfth stable release.

No se han añadido mejoras desde la 1.2rc2, but 62 problemas menores. Si no seguisteis los cambios durante la salida de la pre/rc, aquí tenéis algunos de los más importantes desde la 1.1 in no particular order:

• Up to date packages: Linux kernel 2.6.32.8, GNU C library 2.11.1, Xorg 7.5, GNOME 2.28, KDE 4.3.5 to name a few major components.
• KMS (Kernel Mode-Setting) is now enabled by default for Intel and Radeon cards.
• PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) is now part of the base system.
• Introduced devtmpfs: you can now exclude /dev from backups, along with /proc and /sys.
• Removed several large games from the install images (CD/DVD) which means one less DVD or 4 less CDs.
• We finally upgraded our KDE (and related) packages to the 4.x branch. The work started back in April 2009 and now we thought it’s a good move to merge that testing repository.
• This release comes with Xorg 7.5, see the upstream list of new features.
• We’ve updated our bluez userspace stack to the 4.x branch, which allowed us to improve both GNOME and KDE bluetooth support.
