Mandriva Linux 2008 Spring RC 1 Serapias released
The fifth pre-release of Mandriva Linux 2008 Spring is here. This pre-release includes the all-new artwork for the 2008 Spring release, further improvements to the Mandriva software management tools, WPA-EAP support in the network configuration tools, KDE 3.5.9 and available 4.0.1, some new default applications in KDE and GNOME, and the latest pre-release of OpenOffice.org 2.4.
The beta is available in Free and One editions, with i586 and x86-64 DVDs for the Free edition and i586, KDE-based and GNOME-based CDs for the One edition. As far as testing goes, for this pre-release we are particularly interested in testing the NTFS support, making sure RPMdrake has no problems, PulseAudio, multimedia keyboard support, hardware detection and hibernation support. Please report any problems with sound functionality, and any mis-detected or un-detected hardware, to Bugzilla. Of course, please also report any other problems you run into. You can also discuss the release candidate in the official forums. It may take a few hours for the files to be copied to all mirrors, so if you do not find them on the first mirror you try, try another.
