NEW • Development Release: Absolute Linux 12.1.0 Beta 1 |
| Paul Sherman has announced the first beta release of Absolute Linux 12.1.0, now based on the recently updated Slackware "Current" branch: "This is a beta release because it is based on Slackware current. The base system, utilities and integration are actually superior to anything in the 12.x series so far, but it is possible that there can be package incompatibilities between Slackware 12.0 releases and Absolute 12.1.x. Includes support to Pentium CPUs - you should be able to install on an old Pentium I or a K6-2 machine. You will need at least 48MB of RAM. New X.Org, new KDE libraries (for running K3b), new build of K3b, updated GIMP, updated multimedia installer, recompiled MPlayer, updated Firefox with headers and IDL included to build MPlayer plugin. IceWM recompiled with changes. Updated several utilities." Read the release announcement and changelog for more details. Download: absolute-12.1.0b1.iso (698MB, MD5). |
