Slackware 9.1RC 2 Out, Mandrake 9.2 Soon

Posted by timothy on Wednesday September 24, 2003 @12:42PM from the distro-news dept.

Colin writes "The founder of Slackware, Patrick Volkerding, released version 9.1 RC-2 of the upcoming Slackware. Good ol' Slack comes with new versions of packages while the addition of the Swaret tool adds dependency checking on Slackware for the first time! Here is an enthusiastic preview of Slackware 9.1 with plenty of screenshots." And pacc points out that Mandrake 9.2 will soon be ready, but only for Mandrake Club members at first. "But it will soon come to a mirror near you(TM). Though by choosing to distribute it with BitTorrent, do they effectively limit the downloads for a limited release?"

Suse 9.0 Anyone? by Ripplet · 2003-09-24 19:14 · Score: 0, Offtopic

Hey mods this is only slightly offtopic OK!

'Ole Suse seems to be falling behind in the version wars here, anyone know when 9.0 is due out? Hopefully in time for the Xmas rush, so maybe any day now?
