Hello friends, through this post I would discuss a bit about the launch of Mageia 2 Alpha 1 on 25 November 2011. Mageia is derived from Mandriva. This new release will bring you updated systemd, Linux kernel, and many more features.
Points stand out from this distribution is a Linux 3.1 kernel supported by back-ported ASPM patches, the addition of systemd (though not yet final), KDE SC 4.7.3, GNOME version 3 which is the GNOME 3.3.2 and so much more enhancement.
