If you didn't follow the changes during the pre/rc releases, here are the most important changes since 1.1 in no particular order:<br /> + <ul> + <li>Up to date packages: Linux kernel 2.6.32.8, GNU C library 2.11.1, Xorg 7.5, GNOME 2.28, KDE 4.3.5 to name a few major components.</li> + <li>KMS (Kernel Mode-Setting) is now enabled by default for Intel and Radeon cards.</li> + <li>PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) is now part of the base system.</li> + <li>Introduced devtmpfs: you can now exclude /dev from backups, along with /proc and /sys.</li> + <li>Removed several large games from the install images (CD/DVD) which means one less DVD or 4 less CDs.</li> + <li>We finally upgraded our KDE (and related) packages to the 4.x branch. The work started back in April 2009 and now we thought it's a good move to merge that testing repository.</li> + <li>This release comes with Xorg 7.5, see the <a href="http://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.5/doc/RELNOTES.html#AEN26";>upstream list of new features</a>.</li> + <li>We've updated our bluez userspace stack to the 4.x branch, which allowed us to improve both GNOME and KDE bluetooth support.</li> + </ul> + Please refer to the Frugalware <a href="http://ftp.frugalware.org/pub/frugalware/frugalware-1.2/ChangeLog.txt";>Locris ChangeLog</a> for more information.<br /> + Download for i686, x86_64 and ppc: See our <a href="http://frugalware.org/download/frugalware-1.2-iso";>mirror list</a>.
