KateOS 3.6 Beta Released

Posted by Michael Larabel on April 21, 2007

KateOS, a Polish Linux distribution that uses Xfce and is quite a nice desktop distribution, has rolled out its version 3.6 Beta. Not only are there Linux package updates, but the KateOS team has also improved the boot scripts, packaging scripts, and new graphical configuration tools. The KateOS LiveCD installer will also appear in the 3.6 final release. Package updates include Linux kernel 2.6.19.3, Xfce 4.4.1, X.Org 7.1.1, and GNOME 2.18.1. More information on the KateOS project along with download links is available here.

KateOS is one of the Linux distributions we are currently evaluating for use with our new testing guidelines with Fedora, Ubuntu, Solaris, and BeleniX. More information on this process is available in Phoronix To Support Solaris.
