We did our best to fix all bugs, however should you find one, do not hesitate to enter a report in our bug reporting system (http://bugs.pardus.org.tr). Please note that to eliminate potential problems, burn the CDs in DAO mode, 16x speed. Some of the highlights of this beta are : - A new version of Network Manager with Ad-Hoc, 802.1x and Connection Sharing capabilities, - The new stable version of KDE - KDE 3.5.10, - Kernel 2.6.25.16 - the latest stable release of Linux Kernel 2.6.25, - Swedish language support - KDE3 based Live CD - KDE4 based one is planned to be released soon. - And as always, all the enchanments and bugfixes since the release of Pardus 2008. Let's remind it one more time - this is a beta grade software : though we tried to eliminate all the bugs we are aware of, quite possibly there are more of them. We would be happy to hear about them in our bugzilla and pardus-users email list. -- Happy Hacking; Ekin Meroglu
