Frugalware is general purpose linux distribution, designed for intermediate users (who are not afraid of text mode).

Frugalware Developer Team is pleased to announce the immediate availability of Frugalware 0.3-i686, our third stable release.

What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]

· Up to date packages: Linux kernel 2.6.30.5, GNU C library 2.10.1, Xorg 7.4 with xorg-server 1.6, GNOME 2.26.3, XFCE 4.6.1, GCC 4.4.0 to name a few major components.
· Major review in the documentation: numerous grammatical fixes and various extensions.
· An x86_64 flash plugin is now part of the default installation.
· Etoile is now part of the repository, see this post for more details.
· Major update on the graphical installer (fwife), see the changelog here and there.
· Packaged android-sdk, for those who want network access from Frugalware through their Android phones.
· Just a FYI in case you are using the ext3 filesystem, which is our current default: though we ship the latest stable kernel, we did not switch the default value of the 'data' option to 'writeback', the feature which still makes ext3 seem more robust than ext4 at the time of writing. See here for more information.
· New artwork includes a new wallpaper and a new Gnome theme.
