Known problems:

Backingstore inactive on EEEPC 701 ... this is for now the 0.01% where it doesn't work correct : )

Unlike r3.5 it should work an any PC.


Changelog for 3.9.0a "persistence is futile":
  • Switched to knoppix (a debian based distro focused on live-mode)
  • Removed old aros vision files, no new yet included (waiting for the light version)
  • Fixed fs-uae icon, didn't work before
  • Replaced Openoffice by libreoffice
  • Updated gimp
  • Browser is now iceweasel but feel free to install another one


Regressions:
A lot of icons dead end because the linux apps are not all on par with 3.5. If you re-install the apps using apt-get or synaptic, the icons will work again.

New:
It includes drivers for Intel, AMD and NVidia gpu's.
Some work better than others. Some will have compiz fx, some not.

Happy testing : )
