Slackware-13.0 ChangeLog (2009-08-06)
Thu Aug 6 00:48:30 CDT 2009
Hi folks! We're going to call this set of updates RC2. There are still
README files to be handled (that's the nature of documentation, I guess), as
well as some other things remaining on the TODO list, but X seems pretty
stable now, and it seems like a release soon would be in order so that we
can march right back into development territory with -current again soon.
Enjoy, and let us know about any problems you run into!

Rebuilt
- kde/kdebase-runtime-4.2.4-i486-2.txz

KDE 4.2.4 was developed on for now.
Upgraded. Added new options to the
- n/network-scripts-13.0-noarch-1.txz
rc.inet1.conf file to adjust debugging level, or to turn off ipv4ll
(zeroconf) IP address assignment. Thanks to Eric Hameleers.

Rebuilt. Upgraded to Terminal-0.4.0 and added
