FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
9 A.M. EST, March 21, 2006

Morgantown, WV, February 27, 2006: MEPIS founder, Warren Woodford, announced that three extras CD ISOs for SimplyMEPIS 3.4-3 are now available at the MEPIS subscription site.
The extras CD ISOs are provided as a convenience for subscribers. When a package is installed from the Debian pools, it may trigger an undesired update of many other packages. Also the Debian etch and sid pools have become more and more unstable during the past 6 months. The extras CDs avoid that problem by providing versions of packages that were available at the time the MEPIS products were finalized.

For up to 4 days, please send feedback to eval(unescape('%64%6f%63%75%6d%65%6e%74%2e%77%72%69%74%65%28%27%3c%61%20%68%72%65%66%3d%22%6d%61%69%6c%74%6f%3a%64%65%76%40%6d%65%70%69%73%2e%6f%72%67%22%3e%64%65%76%40%6d%65%70%69%73%2e%6f%72%67%3c%2f%61%3e%27%29%3b'))
Is 3.4-3 Ready for Release? Vote Now!
It's been several months in the making, but we at MEPIS think that Simply 3.4-3 may be ready for final release. It works on our machines.

There have been a few reports that CD drives and SATA drives are not being recognized. But, try as we might, we cannot duplicate the problem.
SimplyMEPIS 3.4-3rc3 - Much Better
Morgantown, WV, January 23, 2006: It is hoped that SimplyMEPIS release candidate, version 3.4-3 rc3 addresses the remaining major issues reported by the test community.

More Udev Related Install Fixes - Only Change in RC2.1
If you use reiserfs and had trouble installing with RC2, that problem should be solved in RC2.1. Otherwise RC2.1 is the same as RC2.

Printer Problems Breakthrough
Last week Danno at A&B Computers in Cottage Grove, MN donated an old HP DJ660C to our test lab and we were able to duplicate the problem some of you were having with older printers.
The problem has been solved, at least for us. And other problems had already been solved. Now every printer we have, works with every computer we have.
SimplyMEPIS 3.4-2 RC 2 Progress Update
