DistroWatch Weekly, Issue 258
[Posted June 25, 2008 by ris]
The
DistroWatch
Weekly for June 23, 2008 is out. "
openSUSE 11.0, Firefox 3.0,
Red Hat Summit - these were the main events that kept the Linux news sites
busy over the past week. The latest release of Novell's community
distribution resulted in a large number of first-look reviews, the authors
of which seemed to be impressed with the effort of the developers. Fast and
pretty? Definitely. Bleeding-edge? Maybe. Unstable? Absolutely not. Despite
the many experimental technologies, KDE 4 and other new features, openSUSE
11.0 appears to be a much improved, well-tested and meticulously designed
operating system that should please even the most demanding desktop Linux
user. In other news, Mandriva announces a release plan for its upcoming
version 2009, Red Hat extends support for its enterprise distributions,
Debian and ASUS cooperate on a new Debian solution for the Eee PC, and
Ubuntu's Netbook Remix gets a thumbs up from a satisfied user. Finally, the
DistroWatch's package database receives a number of new additions - read on
for details."
