| Linux Release Details: |
| openSUSE 10.3 Beta 2 is available |
| The openSUSE team is proud to announce the release of openSUSE 10.3 Beta 2. Though this release should not be used on any production machines, everyone can help shape this release by testing out installations and more. Important changes since Beta2: kernel 2.6.22.3; glibc 2.6.1; the YaST infrastructure was improved to allow writing complete YaST modules; bootloader improvements - openSUSE 10.3 will use 'chainloader' if it detects additional installations in other partitions, otherwise 'configfile' sections will be used; improved package lists of 1-CD GNOME and KDE; countless bug fixes in every component. |
