CRUX 3.0 發布
CRUX是一個輕量級的、為i686優化的Linux發行,它面向經驗豐富的Linux用戶。這份發行以簡單化為主旨,這反映在其基于簡單的tar.gz格式的軟件包系統上,以及BSD風格的啟動腳本和相對較少的軟件包收錄。它的第二個著眼點則在于利用Linux的新特性以及新近的工具及系統庫。
Juergen Daubert has announced the release of CRUX 3.0, a lightweight, x86-64 optimized Linux distribution targeted at experienced Linux users: " More than 11 years after the release of CRUX 0.5 for i686, CRUX 3.0 is the first release for the x86-64 architecture. At the time Per Liden had created CRUX, the i686 processor on base of the 32-bit Intel IA-32 architecture was state-of-the-art and therefore chosen by him as the default optimization for CRUX. But nowadays the i686 architecture is more or less obsolete, at least for desktop machines, and superseded by the x86-64 architecture. Toolchain updates: CRUX 3.0 comes with a multilib toolchain which includes glibc 2.16.0, GCC 4.7.2 and Binutils 2.23.1. Kernel: Linux 3.6.11. CRUX 3.0 ships with X.Org 7.7 and X.Org Server 1.13.0."
