Kororaa Xgl Live CD 0.2 Released!

Thursday, April 6, 2006, 06:33 AM

Code-name: "Blood, sweat and tears."

Ladies and Gentlemen, this is the one you've been waiting so patiently for! After narrowly dodging insanity I am able to release Kororaa Xgl Live CD version 0.2! We have hacked our Kororaa Installer to work with this Xgl Live CD, so easy installation is now possible! This version also sports both Radeon and Intel DRI support, KDE 3.5.2, updated Gnome 2.14, Arch-CK 2.6.16 Kernel, SCSI support and more!

There are many many new features for you, some of which are listed below. Please see the Kororaa installation manual for detailed instructions if you require a guide for the install process. Updated grub installer code now also detects other Linux installs you may have on your hard drive, so you can safely let Kororaa configure your boot-loader.

I have tested 0.2 as best I could with my limited hardware, so as always, feedback and bug reports are more than welcome!

Download information here.

Some enhancements include:

ArchCK 2.6.16 kernel

ATI Drivers updated (8.23.7)

Gnome 2.14 updated

Plus lots and lots and lots of other tweaks!

Some new apps include:

ekiga

ftp

gxine

pppoe

ppracer

Known issues:

Gnome-terminal not working on ATI / DRI systems, please use another terminal (or KDE);

Water plugin freezes the menus under Gnome after stopping the effect.

I must thank Coffee-Buzz for his excellent work and help, and also for putting up with all my questions; BuzzMoo for using his media files; the Linux team at ATI who helped me solve a number of issues; all of our mirrors, and everyone out there working on Gentoo and Xgl :)

Last but not least, thank you everyone for your support. The response to version 0.1 was simply overwhelming! We hope you enjoy version 0.2 just as much as, if not more.

Time for me to take a hard earned break!

Chris
