Ultimate Edition 2.6 is fast and lacks no feature. Wireless was my number 1 concern, it works out of the box. I have embedded many features I am certain you will be glad to have. I will be honest in informing you that some of you ATI users will be capable of firing up Compiz Fusion (all GPUs will be supported in the same aspect in the future). I have introduced Cheese for you webcam users. Cinelerra, K3d and Kdenlive are just a few new tools in this release. We have put GIMP back in as well. There are tools that go well beyond the call of duty. I will not tell you what Ultimate Edition 2.6 has in store for you. Take it for a spin you won’t be sorry.

After an extended RC1 period and a few hiccups with our main server we are finally happy to announce the immediate availability of Yoper Linux 2010. The RC2 feedback was a big thumps up from all sides. So what’s in it? A well-tuned 2.6.33 kernel with focus on desktop interactivity and rich driver functionality. For those who look at gaining an extra inch of interactivity get the kernel-bfs package installed. It contains an alternative CPU scheduler which is aimed at the average desktop CPU, instead of the broad range of CPUs the main kernel scheduler has to support. The release is available with the following desktop environments: KDE 4, KDE 3, LXDE and XFCE.
After a long wait, a new NimbleX version is finally out. Many things have changed, hopefully for the better in the long run. First of all, after about 5 years, the idea of keeping it limited to less than 200 MB was dropped. There is a lot more in the distro right now so it should make the user experience better. Even though almost everything is new, we can still say the major changes include: Linux kernel 2.6.33 with the latest Squashfs and Aufs 2; X.Org Server 1.7.5; new applications – OpenOffice.org instead of KOffice, a lot more of the KDE Games, GIMP, VirtualBox, Firefox, Transmission, GParted and other applications where updated to the latest versions; new desktop environment – KDE 4 is now mature enough to provide an overall better user experience.
