SUSE Linux 10.1 Beta2 is available

SUSE Linux 10.1 Codename 'Agama Lizard' Beta2 is ready for testing. Among many updates and enhancements, here the most important ones since beta2: fixes for a number of bugs - but note that most of the bugs reported against beta1 are not fixed yet; further integration and fixing of NetworkManager; SUSE Linux 10.1 Beta1 comes with the Intrusion Prevention framework; AppArmor 2.0 which is started by default in Beta2; update to KDE 3.5.1 release packages; subfs has been dropped.

For now let me just point out the following issues:

* KDE's media handling does not work (my computer shows wrong
   informations and inserting new media does not open a query
   dialog). Workaround: After installation remove
   /opt/kde3/share/services/kded/networkstatus.desktop before you log
   into KDE.

* If X applications start very slow, update the the fontconfig RPMs
   that are available from
   (http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-10.1-OSS-beta2/fixed-rpms).
