A short and incomplete list of changes since 0.5rc2: * Linux 2.6.17.11 * We are proud to be one of the first distributions that ship the stable GNOME 2.16 * 20 new packages If you did't follow the changes during the pre/rc releases, here are the most important changes since 0.4: * Up-to-date packages: GNU C Library 2.4, GCC 4.1.1, KDE 3.5.4, XOrg 7.1, OpenOffice.org 2.0.3 (a native version for x86_64 users, too) * Security support: as of Frugalware-0.5, security support is provided until the release of the stable Frugalware-0.6. The -stable updates are only security fixes and bugfixes, no new features are added. * Created a new tool called 'setup' to collect the available configuration tools. * Localized the package manager (French, German and Hungarian translations are available) * Switched from bootsplash to splashy, so that the splash can be used with any custom vanilla kernel, too. * Installer improvements: Added wireless support, support for detecting other distributions and other operating systems, utf8-specific updates, all packages are available on CDs. * fw-xgl-control: Easily enables/disables Xgl on your system with one simple command. * fwmirror: A new tool to help mirroring Frugalware. Please refer to the Frugalware [2] 0.5 ChangeLog for more information.
