If you can, make a clone of your current system and save it jic
I've updated my minime with some minor glitches with 'style' settings not the defaults and not adjustable but otherwise looks to be OK.
More importantly....libs and kernel update went well.

AFAICS, as per forum postings this is not the final rollout to PCLOS 2009, but very close.

I'm just about to 'do' my PCLOS system ...

EDIT: :o :o
As warned even on my recently updated system: 670mb dl

Update (IE FIX)
Under KCC there is now a section marked "GTK Styles and fonts"
Go in there, and ensure the buttons maked "GTK Styles" and "GTK Fonts" are set to use your KDE styles and fonts.

The full install (new ISO) won't be out for a few days, all the servers just got synced with the updates and they are getting hammered with everyone updating their original installs....:o

Is there an x64 version of this new one?

Same problem I had when updating 2007. The fix worked for me. Also sound was not working because the upgrade muted some settings in Kmix. Other than that, the upgrade was flawless, and I am liking the new artwork.
