Bodhi Linux 2.3.0 Released

After almost exactly three months since our Bodhi 2.2.0 release the Bodhi team and I are happy to announce the next update release for our 2.x.y series - Bodhi Linux 2.3.0. Again because this is a minor update release people who are already using our 2.x.y branch can simply upgrade to this release via their package manager. Something else I would like to mention is that next month our 1.x.y series release will be reaching its end of life next month (meaning our repos for it will be fully shutdown) so this is a great time to upgrade to our matured 2.x.y release if you've been waiting.

For those who don't care to hear my ramblings, you can find direct download links for our ISO images on Source Forge here and then torrent downloads for the ISO images here (please help seed for a few days if you can).

As with our 2.2.0 release there are three disc downloads for this version:

• 32bit featuring a current PAE enabled kernel
• 32bit featuring a non-PAE kernel with older hardware support
• 64bit featuring a current kernel

Software wise we see the following updates with this release:

• Linux Kernel 3.8
• Enlightenment 0.17.1
• Midori 0.4.9
• Terminology 0.3.0
• eCcess system tool
• Ubiquity 2.12

And of course there are a number of other application updates in the Bodhi repos (not included by default) such as Firefox 19.0.2, Chromium 25, nVidia 310 drivers and LibreOffice 4.0.1

Of course we have some fresh looks for this Bodhi release in terms of art as well! You will find the following default themes on this Bodhi disc:

Angelic

Miguel

Egypt
