Please welcome the Mandriva 2010.2 release, which is coming to a mirror nearby you right now!

As announced previously, Mandriva 2010.2 is an incremental update on top of Mandriva 2010.1, incorporating all the security and bugfix updates since its release.

Just to give you some statistics about what changes in 2010.2 when comparing to 2010 Spring (also known as 2010.1), these are some of the numbers.

Since the 2010.1 release, the secteam has released a total of 5055 RPMs via official updates, counting both security and bugfix advisories, across 272 different packages.

Of course, some of these packages were updated more than once (for example, firefox and thunderbird went through several releases since 2010.1), so if we count the latest versions of all the updates, Mandriva 2010.2 will have a total count of 2522 officially updated and supported rpm packages since the Mandriva 2010.1 release.

If we count the total number of packages which will be available with Mandriva 2010.2 version that were updated since the 2010.1 release, it gives us a whooping number of 6312 modified packages (considering updates, backports and testing medias). And in total it gives 34GB of updated packages across all the medias and architectures.

With such a big number of updated packages, we decided to release an updated version of Mandriva 2010 Spring incorporating these packages – Mandriva 2010.2 – which we proudly release now.

And of course, the development and support will not stop now! As usually, we will continue supporting all the packages during the lifetime of the distribution. In the next few weeks, there will be updates for KDE and OpenOffice.org packages, among the usual security and bugfix advisories and updates. So stay tuned!

About
Fuduntu earns its name by its design to fit somewhere in-between Fedora and Ubuntu. It is a Fedora remix optimized for Netbook and other portable computers.

Some of the tweaks found in Fuduntu:

Linux Kernel 2.6.37
CGroups shell tweak
Deadline IO scheduler
/tmp and /var/log moved to RAM disk
Swappiness reduced to 10
Jupiter for power savings
Gnome default desktop tweaks
Misc power and performance tweaks


A few of the default packages found in Fuduntu:

Adobe Flash
Fluendo MP3 Codec
Likewise Open
Infinality Freetype
Nautilus Elementary
OpenOffice
Thunderbird
GIMP
Jupiter
VIM Enhanced



Latest release (ver 14.8 at time of post)

-New Kernel 2.6.37

-Thunar properly configured (I have seen so many people over the net on various forums going crazy lol)

-Look changed a bit

-base-devel added

-Doc updated

-From now on, there will be no codename. The format will simply be ArchBang-YYYY.MM

-If you have Symbiosis fully updated with everything working perfectly, you don’t need to get this release

-Of course, the Source Files are updated as well in the download section

-Future releases of ArchBang will pretty much have the same set of applications (unless there is a new breathtaking application available, in other words, a better/faster/stronger one that blows your mind)

-Have fun & report the bugs on this thread!

Note: Some people experienced random kernel panic with the new 2.6.37 because they forgot to blacklist some modules that normally had to be disabled for their Broadcom wireless card. See the wiki.

The thing is many wireless drivers are included with this new kernel so your wireless card will most likely work right away but you still have to be careful (at least for Broadcom users). If you get a kernel panic and your wireless card gets disabled, your system might freeze with a black screen everytime until you enable your wireless card again through windoze or something else). If you used to install broadcom-wl for your wifi card, you should still install it (to be sure your wifi card works perfectly and to have a blue LED rather than a RED one).It occured to me so I know

Release notes for Γῆρας

New features in aptosid 2011-01 "Γῆρας" are in particular kernel 2.6.37 and numerous integration and stabilization fixes after completing the transition to aptosid. Kernel 2.6.37 doesn't only improve and stabilise hardware support for newer devices, it also improves ext4 performance (lazy inode table initialization), implements the USB Attached SCSI Protocol (UASP) for USB 3.0 storage and adds support for Intel's new Sandy Bridge graphics cards. Wlan support has been consolidated, with carl9170 now replacing ar9170usb for 802.11n Atheros USB wlan cards, which now support HT/ aggregation operations and AP mode. A major improvement for low latency uses (like audio mastering) is the completed Big Kernel Lock (BKL) removal, which premiers in aptosid 2011-01 "Γῆρας".

As usual, a large number of individual functionality enhancements and bugfixes have been applied to the full package line up and aptosid's own packages, in order to improve the general distribution infrastructure. The past months have allowed to take special care of the small aspects in many packages, to improve general policy compliance and functionality.

Although this release happens in close temporal proximity to the Debian 6.0 "Squeeze" release, it is still based on Debian sid as of this day and is not meant or suited as an alternative way to install "Squeeze". Many security sensitive packages in aptosid (Debian sid) already sport a higher version number than their corresponding version in "Squeeze" or are even uninstallable in a "Squeeze" context.

aptosid after the "freeze"
Now that "Squeeze" is about to be released, the version freeze that reached up to sid will be lifted again within the next few days. Given that there are a number of high impact changes (KDE 4.6, xserver-xorg-core 1.9.3, gtk3, udisk/ upower replacing hal) staging in experimental and are just waiting for the freeze to be lifted, the following 2-3 weeks might be slightly more vibrant and potentially less coordinated than usual in regards to package updates from Debian, therefore we recommend a little caution during dist-upgrades. This might involve checking for eventual upgrade warnings on aptosid.com or to wait a few hours if KDE 4.6 or X.org are among the upgrading packages for experiences from advanced users. Please be aware that it might not always be possible to react in time, now that Debian employs four mirror pushes a day.

Our special thanks go to the aptosid art- and manual teams and especially all mirror hosters for their efforts regarding aptosid.
