Happy Holidays Everybody!

The first updated version of Parsix GNU/Linux 3.6 aka Vinnie is
available for immediate download now.

This version merges all the published updates into the ISO images.
Parsix now offers security updates. Vinnie ISO images are compiled using
SquashFS 4.0 with LZMA compression will fit on a blank DVD.

We are back to using Isolinux as CD/DVD boot loader, as GRUB2 has issues
such as booting from external USB devices.

The updated Linux 2.6.32.26 kernel with improved configuration is
patched using the latest TuxOnIce suspension/hibernation and Kon
Kolivas's BFS patches. 

Improved live boot system loads the system faster and this version also
ships our experimental USB installer that enables users to run Parsix
from USB keys and pen drives.

Vinnie has a brand new light look and feel. Parsix 3.6 default features:
NetworkManager 0.8.1 as default networking stack, GRUB 2 boot loader and
ext4 file system, brand new update-manager package, and X.Org 7.5.

Highlights: GNOME 2.30.2, X.Org 7.5, GRUB 2, GNU Iceweasel 3.5.15,
GParted 0.6.2, Empathy 2.30.1.1, OpenOffice.org 3.2.1, Compiz-Fusion
0.8.4 and VirtualBox-OSE 3.2.6. For more information see release notes
