Frugalware is a general purpose linux distribution, designed for intermediate users (who are not afraid of text mode).
We try to make Frugalware as simple as possible while not forgetting to keep it comfortable for the user. We try to ship fresh and stable software, as close to the original source as possible, because in our opinion most software is the best as is, and doesn’t need patching.

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
