Mandrake 9.0 (Dolphin) Is Available [updated]

Posted by timothy on Wednesday September 25, 2002 @10:29AM from the swim-with-the-fishes dept.

joestar writes "What else to say? I've tested the RCs and they were great... There are two very interesting links: the Press Release, and a very nice presentation. From the presentation: 'Affirming its leading position in the Linux desktop arena, Mandrake Linux 9.0 introduces many newly redesigned graphical desktops and configuration utilities. The famous "Mandrake touch" is evident throughout the many clean, attractive and friendly desktops to make everyday tasks easier for all users of a Mandrake system.' And apparently it's already LSB-1.2 certified!" Update: 09/25 23:57 GMT by T : Apropos new releases, an anonymous reader writes "Parts of Red Hat's next OS have been unofficially leaked, as news.com reports here. The official release date is scheduled for next Monday, 9/30/02." Update: 09/26 00:29 GMT by T : Gaël Duval points to less-swamped links to the press release and to the Presentation & Features page. Thanks, Gaël.

try slackware-current (aka 9.0 beta). it's got gcc-3.2 standard, and has for a couple months.

That's 30 posts in a row with no moderation! Fuck it, I'm burning off a little to say how come I get no mods? Is it the lameness of my .sig or the fact that I'm on a n00b distro?
