Releases : Zenwalk Live 4.6 Released!

,----[ Quote ]
| The most important change in 4.6 at the system level is the new tool chain, 
| including Binutils-2.17.50, GCC 4.1 and Glibc-2.5, which hve been fully 
| implemented. All libraries and applications have been compiled with this 
| modern tool chain and benefit from the latest evolutions in GNU software and 
| resulting binary optimizations.

Zenwalk 4.2 -- There isn't anything mini about this distro anymore

,----[ Quote ]
| Overall: I am honestly pleased to give this package a 4 Pennie review.
| The simplicity of the system, the functionality and way that Zenwalk
| keeps everything basic. There is no fluff to the system, there is no
| monster 4 Gig download, no extra packages that you will never, ever
| need. The team in France really has a gem. It does need a little
| polish on the installation, especially on the networking, which does
| require some insite, which hopefully we helped you understand. Now,
| it is hard to capture everything you need, so please look to the
| forums or here if you need additional support there. Other than that,
| the installation is pretty easy to follow given that it is a text
| based installer for a slackware system.

| Main changes in this release are: kernel 2.6.21, with KVM support;
| a new toolchain, featuring a new glibc and GCC so that most
| packages have been rebuilt; Xfce 4.4.1 with new plugins and
| system notifications (for example, udev now send user notifications
| about hotplugged devices); Firefox 2.0.0.3, Thunderbird 2.0.0.0;
