The second alpha of Chakra was released for some days ago. Notice this is alpha so !caution! do not use in production environments etc etc. Chakra is a new distrobution which can be summed up as: ArchLinux+KDEmod+user friendly The new alpha has KDE4.2, Koffice 2 beta6, Amarok 2.0.1 as default Enjoy http://chakra-project.org/download-iso.html#releaseinfo
OK Loaded this into VMWARE Workstation 6.5 HAs gone very VERY VERY well for an alpha desktop Very well instituted KDE Functional Arch modded live CD and very nice installer Heh heh no guarantees re no bugs ( aahhh pacman worked when I needed it ) Its late here I've posted my rudimentary observations here http://chakra-project.org/bbs/viewtopic.php?id=439 maybe more tomorrow I've really got too much free time atm Ha: linux nerds with a SOH eeeek even got us down here in mind
I have been using ArchLinux+KDEmod now for a couple of years and as soon i heard about chakra i knew i had to try it out. So i jumped on alpha1 directly when it got released and while it was kinda buggy i really liked it. Now when alpha2 has been released i see alot of improvement, which many comes from kde4.2 of course but also to their own programs such as shaman (even though i only use the cli), arxin, tribe etc. It's still not entirely perfect, i don't think any distro will be until at least kde4.4 is released. But at least now i have removed ubuntu which i dual booted before and dedicated my computer entirely to Chakra and KDE (iam sure i will install ubuntu once again when 9.04 gets released, can't help it, ubuntu is a great distro)
