Mepis Update

Posted on August 1st, 2009 at 4:54 am

Okay as anyone who loves Mepis knows there is a huge amount of wants and desires and lets not forget the rumors that abound from the Forums to websites. They all seem to have most of the same things mentioned. KDE4 is the biggest thing, while it is available from other sources it has not as of yet made it into the Mepis Repositories.

Another matter of not a slight bit of conversation is the fact that Warren has made the comment, “I think it will need a minimum of 800-850 MB”, well that means that the next Mepis will require a dvd burner to burn and install. Well one or two of the Mepis regulars are thinking of a script to allow those who don’t have a dvd burner to install it from the HD.

So it seems that later this summer Mepis 8,5 will be released, and as normal Warren will release a distro that just plain works, no matter what it’s size, or the packages that are included. So keep tuned and hang on to your socks it is coming and slowly more news will be released.
