DistroWatch Weekly, Issue 173
[Posted October 17, 2006 by ris]
The
DistroWatch
Weekly for October 16, 2006 is out. "
As we brace up for the
brand new Fedora Core 6 later this week, the focus of this issue of
DistroWatch Weekly is on the 3D accelerated Linux desktop. How usable is
it? And does it bring anything more than eye candy? Find out in a
blog-style report about our experiences with Xgl- and AIGLX-enabled
desktops on Mandriva Linux 2007 and SabayonLinux 3.1. Also in this issue:
iXsystems acquires a popular FreeBSD-based operating system for desktops,
Debian developers vote to resolve controversial issues, and Fedora Core
maintainers look for ways to count their user base. Finally, in the new
distributions section, we introduce Lintrack, a new Arch-based project
designed to run on network routers."
