The long awaited Zenwalk 5.2 is out in Beta.

It's been 4 months since the last release, and it is time to brush off the packages.

What's new?

The package manager, netpkg "new generation" v4, has been completely rewritten in Perl-GTK and many features have been added making this already great application even greater.
Mplayer is provided with the latest dvdnav (DVD menus support).
The powerthend adds cpu scaling daemon and control script.
Suspend/resume system has been improved.

What's updated?

As usual for each release, the desktop has been refreshed with new artwork.
Almost all packages have been updated or rebuilt, to be noticed we find: Linux kernel 2.6.25.4, Xfce 4.4.2.

What else?

The update takes care of a number of security fixes (already available to users as updated packages in the current tree).

As the community thrives, Zenwalk now has a web-accessible Package Database and a conveniently arranged User Repository. Please also have a look at the Zenwalk Companion - a guide to the extra packages available to Zenwalk. Please see the zenwalk.org website for more information, and welcome to support.zenwalk.org for bug reports and friendly discussion between Linux purists :)
