Stefan Emmerich has announced the availability of a new beta release of Debris Linux, version 1.8.2. Debris Linux is a minimalist (under 200 MB), Ubuntu-based desktop distribution with GNOME. What's new? "Fixed bug in 1.8.0 which defaulted to Dutch instead of US keyboard layout during boot; updated kernel 2.6.28; new kernel module powernow-nx; updated Firefox; live USB with options 'toram' and 'myconfig=usb' works now; Nautilus script TextEdit - Yes/No buttons instead of Cancel/OK; GRUB background now available for the 'isolinux' CD; the infamous 'i810' and 'trident' bug in X.Org fixed; CPU frequency scaling should work now with Intel (Centrino, SpeedStep) too; added firmware for Broadcom 43xx wireless chips; hid-dummy kernel module, which caused fatal error message during boot. Please check up on those fixes." Read the short release announcement on the project's user forums. Download (MD5): debris-1.8.2.iso (186MB). |

It includes the GNOME desktop and a small set of popular desktop applications, such as GNOME Office, Firefox web browser, Pidgin instant messenger, and ufw firewall manager.
