Spread the love

corn salad was the first to inform us that a new version of the Linux distribution Red Hat Linux has been released. This version has been given version number 7.3.

This release is again quite up-to-date in the linux world. For example, KDE 3.0.0 is integrated with XFree86 4.2.0. RedHat also has a new (stable) version of Mozilla in it (0.9.9).

Of course, not only the software has been thought of. Hardware support has also been improved. For example, thanks to kernel 2.4.18 there is now USB 2.0 support. Users with a digital camera will also be satisfied, because the makers of Red Hat Linux have also thought of this this time. For a full list of packages, it’s best here to look. Red Hat Linux (Personal) can be downloaded from Red Hat’s FTP server. It was quite busy at the time of writing. Here is a list of mirrors.
