Subject: [STUX NEWS n.3]  Stux Linux 0.6.4 released and STUX PACKAGES


Milan, 5 feb 2004

STUX NEWS:
---------

STUX version 0.6.4 released to fix an error in script hd-install, 
introduced in version 0.6.3.

And now, HAVE FUN !

The real news are STUX PACKAGES, that are applications packaged to work 
with no effort in STUX Live CD environment.

At the moment, these are the STUX PACKAGES available:

Drivers:       NVidia video drivers
Games:         Doom Demo
               Quake I Demo
               Quake II Demo
               Quake III Demo
               Unreal Tournament 2003 Demo
x86 Emulators: Bochs 2.1
Messengers:    Amsn

If you are running STUX Live CD now, you can download and execute 
packages in a few minutes, with no effort, clicking:

K Menu -> STUX -> Installed application -> download and install applications

Note that you need a linux filesystem (ext2) with enough disk space to 
download, install and execute packaged applications.

Note also that Quake III and Unreal Tournament 2003 require an 
accelerated 3D video card (I am currently using GeForce MX 4000 with 
NVidia chipset).

For all games is required a processor at 800 Mhz or superior, no i486, 
AMD processors are not always supported, and the video card must support 
AGP transfers.

Read more about STUX PACKAGES at:
http://gpstudio.com/stux/stux-packages.html

REQUESTS:

- If you have a speedtouch ADSL modem: I need to test Speedtouch 
drivers: if you can help, please let me know.

- If you have a 3dfx video card: I need to test Unreal Tournament Demo 
(the old version) package: if you can help, please let me know.

- Do you offer Linux-related jobs ? Do you need Linux consulting and 
support ? Please, let me know.

- Mirrors for STUX iso files are always welcome.

Thank you

STUX HQ, 18 Jun 2007.

STUX Nightly Builds:
--------------------

STUX NIGHTLY BUILDS is a tool that provides STUX iso files updated
daily.

STUX NIGHTLY BUILDS runs every night and checks:

     1. if a new STUX Utilities package is available.
     2. if a new KNOPPIX iso file has been released.
     3. if new SLACKWARE packages have been released.

if at least one of these conditions is true, STUX NIGHTLY BUILDS will
download updated software and will rebuild an updated STUX iso file.
The resulting bootable ISO file is automatically shared with
BitTorrent. Torrent files are available on
http://gpstudio.com/stux/nightly.

STUX NIGHTLY BUILDS automatically provides STUX Beta-Versions that are
always up-to-date with:

     1. the latest Knoppix Kernel
     2. the Current Slackware tree
     3. the latest STUX utilities software

The resulting ISO file is automatically tested before release:
if the default KDE session cannot be cleanly reached in the Live CD
environment, the iso file will not be published.
This guarantees that all available ISO files can boot cleanly and that
the boot process can reach the default KDE session.

STUX NIGHTLY BUILDS process activities are published every night on
http://gpstudio.com/stux/nightly

HTTP MIRRORS:
-------------

HTTP Mirror for STUX 1.0 is ready on http://stux.headru.sh
Thanks to Alan Bruce.

Be happy,
Giacomo Picconi
