Knoppix 3.9 Released

Posted by Zonk on from the new-toys dept.

GuyRiley writes "The Debian-based live-cd Linux distribution Knoppix has been updated to version 3.9. Among the most notable changes are the update to kernel 2.6.11 and the inclusion of OpenOffice 2.0 BETA and KDE 3.4. This is likely the last single-CD version of Knoppix before the split into 'Light' and 'Maxi' versions. Torrent links here."

    How bloody typical. I just downloaded and burned 3.8.2 yesterday.

    Why can't they be like Debian? Those CDs, you can pass on to your children and they're still current.

    Don't you guys know Bittorrent is evil and a tool that pirates use for theft?

    If you don't like the pun, just throw it on the floor and tampon it.

    Light for light days and Maxi for heavy flow days, right?
