Mandrakelinux 10.1 Beta Available
joestar writes "Just announced on Mandrakelinux.com: 'At last something to make your summer hotter, far better than all these linux unaware suntanned chicks and chaps you would like to get along with on the beach. Forget them and go back home, full up your fridge with soya drinks (or your favorite one, but remember that fast assimilated sugar shorten your life expectancy). It is time to test your new air conditionner limits, switching on all the computers sitting arround to test this new Mandrakelinux 10.1 beta! '. Software packages include: Linux 2.6.8 rc2, Glibc 2.3.3, Xorg 6.7.0, KDE 3.2.3 and GNOME 2.6.0."
When making a beta, you are mainly in bug fixing and stabilising mode -- that means, you don't go changing major variables all the the time, or at least not all at once. KDE 3.2 is known to be stable. After Mandrake has the bugs worked out of the first beta, they may very well well include KDE 3.3.
He who laughs last is stuck in a time dilation bubble.
