Posted by Michael Larabel on October 11, 2009

The last development release, Release Candidate 2, of Mandriva Linux 2010 is now available. Mandriva Linux 2010 adopts Plymouth and brings other new features like Moblin packaging, Tomoyo security framework integration, improved boot performance, and more. Mandriva Linux 2010 RC2 brings the last bits into place for Moblin support, offers the final versions of KDE 4.3.2 and GNOME 2.28.0, Intel Poulsbo drivers, support for guest accounts, and improved Nepomuk integration.

The Mandriva Linux 2010 RC2 release announcement was made this weekend on the Mandriva blog and the full release notes can be found on the Mandriva Wiki. Mandriva 2010 (final) should be out in the near future.
