Porteus 3.1 RC1 发布
Porteus是一份快捷的、便于携带的、模块化的自启动运行光盘及USB介质发行，它基于Slackware Linux。该发行始于一份Slax的社区改造版本（另一份基于Slackware的自启动光盘，但已不再维护），以KDE 3作为i486版本的缺省桌面，并以裁减过的KDE 4作为x86_64版本的桌面环境。此外还提供轻量级的LXDE可作为替代桌面环境。
The Porteus Community is stoked to announce the candidate release of Porteus Desktop Edition 3.1rc1 is ready for download. As usual we have available prepackaged modules for Google-Chrome, Opera, Libreoffice, Abiword, Skype and printing/scanning software, which can be dropped in place to get out-of-the-box functionality!
You can customize your Porteus ISO using the web wizard here: build it now
You can download the ISO and other files for the desktop edition here: 32bit and 64bit
You can download the kiosk ISO (and customize it with wizard embedded directly into it) from here: http://porteus-kiosk.org/download.html

Porteus Kiosk Edition 3.1.1:
New version looks after various kiosk ISO related issues, brings 3 months free trial to the 'automatic updates' service and adds initial UEFI support which is not fully implemented in the ISO yet. New features, as well as kernel and userand updates (including latest mozilla-firefox-31.0 ESR) are not included in this release but are available in the automatic updates channel for those who are willing to subscribe to this service.
Changes in this release include:
- Updated make-iso.sh script to create 'eltorito EFI' images when efi component is present in the ISO
- PXE boot: improved compatibility with IIS and other http servers
- Added quirk for loading 'broadcom' driver during PXE and normal boot when BCM57780 chipset is found
- Display kiosk version during boot
- Added a fix to clean the screen properly after counting (modules/seconds)
- Kernel config: added FB_EFI support
- Kiosk wizard: added possibility for 3 months free trial of the 'automatic updates' commercial service
- Security fix: deactivated 'ctrl+l' keybinding by default. When firefox's 'address bar' is disabled the user could invoke an URL window by pressing 'ctrl+l' key combination and browse to other sites through it
- Switched to MAC based authorization for dhcpcd which is persistent (MAC never changes) unlike duid in kiosk
- Updated 'xzm download' function to resolve remaining md5sum issues. After this upgrade you should never experience them anymore (they may still occur only when there is something wrong with your connection)
- Upgraded to mkisofs-3.01a24 for better UEFI compatibility
