All releases of Absolute OS
Release Notes: Security updates and interface tweaks were made. Barring any last-minute bug fixing, this should be the final release in the 13.1.x series.
Release Notes: Security updates including the mozilla-nss package (and Firefox, Seamonkey, and Thunderbird on CD2). Icewm menu fixes and re-arrangement. AbiWord is back in the base install with GTK printing preview by epdfview (so no more AbiWord crashes, hopefully). Several package updates including OpenOffice, Imagemagick, Inkscape, and Chromium Browser. A new default sound mixer: alsamixer-qt4. A new script in the menu to change screen locker mode, and an updated find-installed script.
Release Notes: The main reason for this release is to avoid kernel security vulnerabilities. A few new applications, many library package updates, and a bit of interface tweaking. Starting to feel like a 13.1.x final.
Release Notes: The Chromium browser has been updated, and is distributed with the PDF viewer extension pre-configured, so PDF viewing is a non-issue. There is a security fix. Several programs have been updated for the new icewm menu insertion procedure. geeqie has been updated to allow multiple instances. GIMP has been updated as well as several apps in the CD2 directory in repositories. AbsChart (the pie chart maker) is back in the Graphics menu.
Release Notes: Chromium was replaced by Firefox as the default Web browser. Several security and application updates were made.
Release Notes: Feature enhancements were made. The old KDE3-based K3B is now the default disk burning software, since the rest were unacceptable. A new theme was added. There is a new fail-safe script that is called with the key combination Ctrl+Alt+Esc, which switches the login interface from graphic to text based. This is sort of a fail-safe maneuver if X is not working properly.
Release Notes: The multimedia installer was fixed with a few updates.
Release Notes: A new kernel version, 2.6.32.7, is now used. The device-related scripts were updated and multimedia handling was improved.
Release Notes: Updated libraries, security-related updates, and the beginnings of internationalizing the Absolute utilities (as well as a new utility to switch language/keymaps). New AbiWord with a working Collab plugin. ePDFView replaces xpdf.
Release Notes: A couple of network-related security updates. Perl has been updated along with all Perl libraries and Perl-based applications. Newer QT, a new calendar/PIM (Osmo) and audio editor, a couple of new scripts, and updated file managers working, as always, toward improved file handling.
