Development Release: PCLinuxOS 2009 Beta 3 |
 |
The third public beta release of PCLinuxOS 2009 is out and ready for testing: "The Ripper Gang is pleased to announce the third public beta ISO release of what will ultimately become PCLinuxOS 2009. This beta features kernel 2.6.26.8, KDE 3.5.10, OpenOffice.org 3.0, Firefox 3.0.5, Thunderbird 2.0.0.14, KTorrent, Amarok, Flash, Java JRE, Compiz Fusion 3D and much more. We request that only our more experienced PCLinuxOS users test this beta release and report any issues with it in the forum provided specially for it. Testers are advised to install this beta into a separate partition for temporary use only. This and any subsequent betas are considered static installs and will not be upgradeable to the 2009 Final, so please don't install this with the idea of using it long-term as a work station." Here is the release announcement. Download: PCLinuxOS-N1PTT-TR6.iso (691MB, MD5). |

| About PCLinuxOS |
| PCLinuxOS is an English only live CD initially based on Mandrake Linux that runs entirely from a bootable CD. Data on the CD is decompressed on the fly, allowing up to 2GB of programs on one CD including a complete X server, KDE desktop, OpenOffice.org and many more applications all ready to use. In addition to the live CD, you can also install PCLinuxOS to your hard drive with an easy-to-use livecd-installer. Additional applications can be added or removed from your hard drive using a friendly apt-get front end via Synaptic. |
