Izašao FreeBSD 7.1

Danas je osvanula nova verzija FreeBSD operativnog sistema. Jednog od tri slavna BSDa za kojim nema nekog pretjeranog hypea kod nas (koliko ja znam, Zajko koristi OpenBSD i Alen koristi FreeBSD, mislim da ne znam nikog drugog ko koristi BSD). Također, naša nekad dična BSD sekcija je zatvorena (tačnije, prebačena na wiki) i mislim da i to ima malo veze, no ipak, mi smo Udruženje Linux korisnika pa neću dalje :slight_smile:

Evo par zanimljivih komada iz changeloga:

[quote=FreeBSD 7.1 Release Notes]o The ULE scheduler is now the default in GENERIC kernels for amd64 and i386 architectures. The ULE scheduler significantly improves performance on multicore systems for many workloads.
o The BTX kernel used by the boot loader has been changed to invoke BIOS routines from real mode. This change makes it possible to boot FreeBSD from USB devices.
o The DRM kernel driver now supports i915 GME devices.
o The ale(4) driver has been added to provide support for Atheros AR8121/AR8113/AR8114 Gigabit/Fast Ethernet controllers. This driver is not enabled in GENERIC kernels for this release.
o The ndis(4) NDIS miniport driver wrapper has been improved.
o A bug in the dhclient(8) that prevents removal of the default route from working has been fixed.
o The supported version of the GNOME desktop environment (x11/gnome2) has been updated from 2.20.1 to 2.22.
o The supported version of the KDE desktop environment (x11/kde3) has been updated from 3.5.8 to 3.5.10.[/quote]

Nažalost, BiHnet još uvijek ne podržava BSD tako da ih nema na lokalnim mirorima. Studentima ETFa u Sarajevu budem postavio OpenBSD 4.4 i FreeBSD 7.1 na studentski sharing server dubbed “hepek” :slight_smile: Za ostale tu je DistroCentar :slight_smile:

I kao zahvala što ste (nadam se) pročitali dovde evo i wallpaper Jessice Albe: http://wallpapers.skins.be/jessica-alba/jessica-alba-1280x800-33335.jpg :slight_smile:

Pozdravi,

P.S. Vedrane/Adise, ako mislite da ovo treba ići u neku “novosti” sekciju imate moju dozvolu da prebacite tamo.
