12.10 Beta 2 Release


Great news! I have fix a few things with the previous release and now have a working beta 2 release. A few application are missing but overall the build works well for daily use, the boot animation has been fix, auto login for live session now work with 10 seconds auto load for the user “luninux”, internet connection, and many drivers have been added, more stable software selection, as always the installer is in the “Examples” folder on the desktop and the sideshow has been partially updated. Please download this release a soon as possible, I ensure you that you will love it. Download 12.10 Beta 2 from the Unstable page or use links below LuninuXOS-12.10-Desktop-amd64-Beta-2.iso (amd64 md5) | LuninuXOS-12.10-Desktop-i386-Beta-2.iso (i386 md5)

12.10 Beta 1 Release


Please download the 64bit from LuninuXOS-12.10-Desktop-amd64-Beta-1.iso and 32bit LuninuXOS-12.10-Desktop-i386-Beta-1.iso or simply visit the Unstable page to get testing release. 12.10 is very unstable, one of the major problems being you have to manually copy /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf to /etc/resolv.conf so you are able to browse the web and use the internet, with that said, you have to manually type the user name “luninux” and press enter twice to login the live session…This is just a general idea for the next Beta, so please make sure you provide your feedback on any positive and negative findings. Thank you.
