Distribution Releases: Càtix 1.5, 1.6 |
 |
Càtix is a Debian-based distribution and live DVD with complete support for the Catalan language. The project has announced two new releases - Càtix 1.5 is the last Càtix featuring the KDE 3 desktop while Càtix 1.6 is the distribution's first version that defaults to KDE 4 (version 4.3.4). The GNOME desktop is also available for selection from the boot menu. The KDE desktop and applications represent the only difference between the two versions; the rest of the system is based on Debian's unstable branch with many of the latest applications included on the DVDs. Both releases use Linux kernel 2.6.32.3, glibc 2.10.2, GCC 4.4.2 and X.Org Server 1.7.3.902. Read the complete release announcement (in Catalan) for further information.
