4MLinux developer Zbigniew Konojacki is informing Softpedia today about the immediate availability of the third point release of the 4MLinux 20.0 GNU/Linux distribution.
4MLinux 20.3 is the third point release to the 4MLinux 20.x stable series of the independently-developed Linux-based operating system, bringing some of the latest security updates and a new kernel, namely Linux kernel 4.4.44 LTS.
“This is a minor maintenance release in the 4MLinux STABLE channel. The release ships with the Linux kernel 4.4.44,” said Zbigniew Konojacki in the release announcement for the 4MLinux 20.3 release.
Among the applications and components that have been updated in 4MLinux 20.3, we can mention the Audacious music player, Mozilla Thunderbird email and news client, LibreOffice office suite, PeaZip archive manager, and Mozilla Firefox web browser.
It also looks like the updated 4MLinux 20 ISO image, which you can download right now from our website if you want to deploy the operating system on new computers or reinstall, includes new versions of the FileZilla, Dropbox, WinSCP, and Java JRE.
4MLinux 20.3 comes approximately one month after the release of 4MLinux 20.2, and existing 4MLinux 20.x users can upgrade their installations to the new version by running the “zk update” in the terminal emulator program.
Meanwhile, the developer works on the next major release of the 4MLinux operating system, version 21.0, which is currently in Beta stages of development. The final release is expected to land in March, and will be supported until November 2017.
