Mandriva, Mandrake, Lycoris Distrowatch reports that a new beta version of Mandriva Linux 2006 appeared on the mirrors over the weekend. Like the first one a week ago, the new beta release, labelled as 2006 0.1.1, has not yet been officially announced, but the good news is that the mirroring problems we mentioned in last week's DistroWatch Weekly have been solved and the new release is now available from the usual Mandriva mirror sites. OSDir has a handful of screenshots.

The name change was an elegant way to settle the legal dispute with Hearst about the "Mandrake" name.

And Mandriva may not be bundling the 0-day latest releases of KDE/GNOME etc. by default at the moment, but they are providing a version with updated KDE to Mandriva Club members, and there's a separate repository with cutting edge GNOME packages as well.
