Frugalware, a general purpose Linux operating system, designed for intermediate users (who are not afraid of text mode), is now at version 1.6 RC2.

Frugalware 1.6 RC2, codename Fermus, has just a few important updates and hundred of smaller fixes. As usual, the developers have implemented a new Linux kernel, this time version 3.1.10.

Other important changes are: introduction of LibreOffice 3.4.5, over 100 updated packages, 27 new applications, a new cpupower, perf packages, kmod replaced module-init-tools, a fix for the installer which now handles network timeout errors, and documentation updates.

A complete changelog is available here.

Download Frugalware 1.6 RC2 right now from Softpedia. Remember that this is a development and it should NOT be installed on production machines. It is intended to be used for testing purposes only.
