“In response to the ever growing expectations of its community,
MandrakeSoft launches MandrakeFreq, an innovative program allowing
users to test the new features of the Linux-Mandrake distribution
in between each official release. These distributions, downloaded
from web or available on Cds will be released periodically. As
opposed to “Cooker”, MandrakeSoft’s experimental distribution,
MandrakeFreq’s new features will be on a stable basis. These
distributions are tested but are not considered as officially
supported by MandrakeSoft, as they may contain bugs and beta
programs.”

“The first version of MandrakeFreq is available on the web now
and contains in addition to the official updates:

  • KDE 2.1, features a long list of enhancements on the 2.0
    release.
  • XFree86 4.02 with support for the latest video cards.
  • Mozilla”
