Same procedure as every year!
K. Knopper is presenting the new Knoppix 7.0 at CeBIT Hannover
http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html
An article about the new features is there (German, couldn´t find it in English):
http://www.linux-magazin.de/Heft-Abo...4/Knoppix-7.0/

A download-version will come (as every year) later.

For the german-challenged, like myself, you can get a better
idea using google translate. Just add it to your browser toolbar.

Some things don't come through quite right. I think Klaus has
REPLACED lxrandr with arandr. I would, anyway.

Looks evolutionary rather than revolutionary to me, I think that's fine.
Shall be interesting to see how the advertised chroot into a pure 64-bits system may work in practice.

KNOPPIX 7.0 / ADRIANE 1.4 is currently included exclusively in Linux Magazine. About 4 weeks after CeBIT, the public edition of CD and DVD will be available for download again from the usual KNOPPIX mirror sites.

I wonder if someone with access to the 7.0 DVD could uncompress the minirt and post the 7.0 init script. That might save us some work later, to make the announced 7.0.1 maintenance release as good as possible.

I have sent it to your email-address.

Greetings Werner

Hello,
I also would like to get the Knoppix 7.0 minirt for the same reason.
The magazine will only show up in a month in the US...
Thx, Gilles

I have put the file here for you to download:
http://www.icpug.org.uk/national/programs/minirt.gz

Let me know when you have it as I will remove it afterwards.

Note that the file size is the same as that for Knoppix 6.70 so it may not have changed since then.
