Knoppix 3.6 'aKademy Edition' announced at the KDE World Summit
===============================================================

     To celebrate the start of the CodeMarathon
[http://conference2004.kde.org/sched-marathon.php] event at the KDE
World Summit 2004 [http://conference2004.kde.org/], the KDE Project and
Knoppix [http://www.knoppix.org] proudly announce Knoppix 3.6
[http://www.knopper.net/knoppix-mirrors/index-en.html], dubbed 'aKademy
Edition'. Last-minute bugs were fixed, and the finished version
demonstrated exclusively in an aKademy tutorial on Knoppix
[http://conference2004.kde.org/tut-knoppix.php], indicative of the
strong relationship between the Knoppix and KDE developer and user
communities.

     Klaus Knopper, said: "Since the first Knoppix version users have
been using KDE and are very comfortable with its  efficiency and
userfriendliness."

     Building on their successful LiveCD platform, Knoppix 3.6 comes
with KDE 3.2.3 and the FreeNX Server, which is the speed boosting NX
Terminal Server technology [http://www.nomachine.com/resources.php] in
KDE. In presentations at LinuxTag [http://www.linuxtag.de] and aKademy,
co-authors Fabian Franz and Kurt Pfeifle impressed audiences showing how
FreeNX with KDE can provide multiple reliable remote X connections, a
huge advantage for KDE developers and Knoppix users alike.

     Check the Knoppix mirrors
[http://www.knopper.net/knoppix-mirrors/index-en.html] for downloading
the ISO. Also you can get FreeNX packages at Kalyxo.
