2007-01-12 NEW • Development Release: 64Studio 1.1.0
Free Ekanayaka has released the first development build of 64Studio 2.0, labelled as version 1.1.0: "I’ve prepared a test 1.1.0 release, which is meant to be the first of the testing releases which will lead to the next stable 2.0 release. If you want to stick to stable version please just use the actual 1.0.0. That said, the new 1.1.0 release is just an update of the 1.0.0 one, sporting the new 2.6.19 kernel I’ve packaged, see this changelog. You can dist-upgrade from a plain 1.0.0 install using the testing repository. Note that the upgrade works only with the amd64 edition, as unfortunately the i386 edition was shipped without the kernel upgrade package."

2006-11-14 Development Release: 64Studio 0.9.7
Free Ekanayaka has announced a new testing release of 64Studio, a Debian-based Linux distribution with a collection of software for digital content creation: "This is just to let you know that I’ve built a new ISO with a new 2.6.18 kernel, which includes the latest 2.6.18.2 patches and version rt6 of the realtime-prempt patch. The kernel and the relevant modules are the only differences with respect to 0.9.5, so if you prefer you can just install them from the testing repository. The i386 kernel has been built with HPET disabled, so it should work fine on dual processors too. For AMD64 users, please give it a try and let me know if the new kernel solves the boot issues with 2.6.18." Here is the release announcement.
