[LUG.ro] Kwort 2.4

[Martin Troncoso]

bueno gente, les escribia para anunciarles que salio kwort 2.4, para quienes 
quieran probarlo

The core system is based on Slackware and provides a rock solid system, and 
it's also a great place to start making a full featured and usable desktop 
environment using Xfce. 
This version includes several changes from 2.2 from a new toolchain to a 
completely new base system. The inclusion of hal provides a great way to 
communicate the hardware with the desktop making the system a lot more user 
friendly. 

Good things in this new version: 
Hal: As I said before provides a lot of new features giving the desktop some 
kind of control of the hardware.
New init system: Kwort 2.4 includes a new init system written mostly from 
scratch. Also it puts all the work together with the new service command.
Linux 2.6.24.3: The latest stable version of the linux kernel.
Kpkg: The new version of kpkg was re-written from scratch.
Kwort User Manager: Provides a simple way to create and remove users with 
default Kwort templates.
Xfce: This new version integrate great with hal.
Ristretto: The image viewer of the Xfce project.
Mplayer: The most famous video player on Linux is now included in the iso.
Pidgin: The latest version of the best multiprotocol IM.
Mpd+Gmpc: This is the new combo to play media files in Kwort. Just put your 
media files in ~/Music, go to gmpc, give update and play.
