2007/06/01 Sam Linux 2007.1 Test 1


Well here is the release of Sam Linux 2007.1 Test 1 which I haven’t yet tested. I tested the one for 2006 and found that it was a very good but very slow distro, though I had it running on 500 MHZ processors. here is an excerpt from Distrowatch.com:

A new development build of SAM Linux, a distribution based on PCLinuxOS, has been released: “SAM 2007.1-test1 is available for testing. The most important changes: OpenOffice.org was dropped, here is the reason: SAM now comes with basic support for more than 50 languages, proprietary ATI and NVIDIA drivers have been added to the live CD with a nice GUI to install them, under the hood it is running a development version of kernel 2.6.20.11. All packages have been updated to their newest versions available in the PCLinuxOS repositories, some new ones have been added (PDFedit, Planner, Searchmonkey, Ntfs-config, VirtualBox…) and a fresh theme was created.” Read the rest of the release announcement on the distribution’s home page. Download: SAM-2007.1test1.iso (694MB, MD5).
