DistroWatch Weekly, Issue 269
[Posted September 9, 2008 by ris]
The
DistroWatch
Weekly for September 8, 2008 is out. "
This week's feature story
is a review of Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 "Lenny" on the ASUS Eee PC. With Debian
being the first Linux distribution to have an open communication channel
with the Taiwan-based hardware manufacturer, our expectations were high,
but is Lenny really a good choice for the popular ultra-portable? Read on
to find out. In the news section, Google restarts the browser war with
Chrome, Dell unveils the long-awaited Inspiron Mini 9, Mandriva Linux 2009
enters the release candidate stage, and Fedora calls on beta testers to
help with testing the promising ext4 file system. Also worth a mention, a
new community edition of openSUSE 11.0 with Enlightenment as its principal
window manager is now available for download. Finally, a lot of interesting
news for the fans of Linux Mint as Clement Lefebvre announces a range of
upcoming community editions before giving an excellent interview on a Linux
news blog."
