Greetings! We are happy to announce the first preview of GoboLinux 016, the distro's first 64-bit release since its creation back in 2002. Some of the highlights include: - Runner, our filesystem virtualization tool that dynamically changes the processes' view of /System/Index based on the program's Dependencies file. With that tool, one does not need to worry about which version of a given dependency is currently linked (or activated) on /System/Index; - A minimalistic desktop based on the Awesome window manager; - A focus on the exploration of novel ideas. You may find this snapshot less packed with packages, but it should be more fun to run! We have worked hard to ensure it runs smoothly on a variety of machines, but given the architecture switch it is possible that we forgot something. We will collect reports from you for a few weeks before rolling a new snapshot of what'll soon become 016 final. Without further ado, here's the download link: http://gobolinux.org/iso/GoboLinux-016-alpha.iso http://gobolinux.org/iso/GoboLinux-016-alpha.md5 (checksum) Hope you enjoy it! :-) The GoboLinux Team _______________________________________________ gobolinux-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gobolinux.org/mailman/listinfo/gobolinux-users
