DragonFly BSD 3.6.0 發布
DragonFly是一份作為FreeBSD-4.x系列在邏輯上的延續而設計的操作系統及應用環境。這些操作系統與Linux可歸為相同的類別,因為它們都基于UNIX理念及應用程序接口。DragonFly是這條發展道路上的一個分支,可以說,是給了BSD一個向著不同于FreeBSD-5系列的嶄新方向而發展的機會。
DragonFly BSD 3.6.0, a UNIX-like operating system created in 2003 as a fork of FreeBSD 4.8, is out: " Version 3.6.0 released." Big ticket items of the release include: " Dports, which uses the FreeBSD ports system as a base, and the 'pkg' tools for installation, is now default on DragonFly; using the parallel building of the 20,000 packages in dports as a test case, contention in the kernel has been nearly eliminated; support for newer Intel and ATI chipsets is present in the system - this may not work for every hardware combination, but a number of users have reported success with hardware-accelerated video using this update; locales and libiconv work have brought DragonFly up to date on language support, utilities should be usable in your native language." Here are the detailed release notes with upgrade instructions. Download ( MD5): dfly-x86_64-3.6.0_REL.iso.bz2 (194MB). The "GUI" images are not yet ready " due to the dports switch."
