Topic: Release Notes

Thanks to your feedback the issues on non-german keyboard layouts and scanner misbehaviour in preview 1 could be fixed in sidux 2007-03 Γαῖα Preview 2. This is a mere bugfix release and doesn't require reinstalling, instructions to fix the issues in preview 1 are described below (updating to the new kernel and adapting /etc/X11/xorg.conf to your keyboard layout).

After 3 months of development we are proud to announce the immediate availability of the sidux-2007-02 "Τάρταρος" release for amd64 and i686 systems, shipping in a ≈425 MB lite KDE and a ≈ 690 MB full KDE flavor. sidux is a full featured Debian sid based live CD with a special focus on hard disk installations, a clean upgrade path within sid and additional hard- and software support.

5 days later than planned, but now that KDE 3.5.7 has settled in debian/ sid, it is time to announce the second and last kde-lite preview for sidux 2007-02. Barring unforeseeable problems the full featured final release of sidux-2007-02 "Τάρταρος" will be released early next week.

Debian/ sid and sidux have progressed a lot over the last three months, now I have the pleasure to announce the first public preview for sidux 2007-02. Please note this is not the final release. The full featured final release of sidux-2007-02 "Τάρταρος" will be ready in about 2 weeks (i686 and amd64, this might be a bit delayed based on KDE's release schedule), intermediate xdeltas will be provided as needed until then.
