MEPIS Linux is a desktop Linux distro based on Debian that is also easy to configure as a dedicated server.
Morgantown, WV, US and Thessaloniki, Greece, May 14, 2008 -- MEPIS has announced the release of antiX 7.2, "Vetëvendosje."
MEPIS has released a kernel update for SimplyMEPIS 7.0. The new kernels, version 2.6.22-18mepis1, contain all recent security patches from the kernel.org development team.
From a Linux Developer point of view, when users are no longer developing with you...you’ve lost. Empowerment is key to a successful community in Linux. The day the community is no longer empowered to improve is the day the distribution dies. What kills empowerment? Helplessness. Despair. Inability.
As an example, a user might not like it if you tell them their bug will not be fixed for the next release. This is normal practice in many major distributions. But if you tell a user that their bug won’t be fixed through 4 releases, you may have a problem. Unfortunately, this also is becoming a normal practice for some major distributions.
The MEPIS 7.0 pool now contains updates including compiz 0.6.3-1, compizconfig-settings-manager 0.6.0-2, and python-compizconfig 0.6.0-1.
Eclipse 3.2.2-4 has been recompiled for MEPIS and added to the MEPIS 7.0 pool. As usual, Debian Etch users are welcome to install this and other packages from the MEPIS 7.0 pool.
