Cedaredge, CO,
May 24, 2007: Technalign, Inc. has released Pioneer Basic Release
2.1 of it's base Linux Operating System. Pioneer Basic Release 2.1 is
being released on DVD. Technalign will continue to ship Pioneer Basic
Release 2.0 for those users who do not wish to purchase a DVD drive for
their systems. Pioneer Basic R2.1 is similar to Basic R2.0 with several
exceptions. The biggest exception is that Pioneer Release 2.1 is based
on Feisty and not Edgy while it continues to be based on Kubuntu. Adept
is nolonger incorporated as the update manager, but is now replaced with
Synaptic per the business and consumer communities. Also notable are the
Guarddog Firewall as well as the KlamAV anti-virus utilities that have
been added and OpenOffice 2.2.
"We are listening
to our user and business community," claims Technalign CEO Dianne
Ursini. "Pioneer Basic Release 2.1 incorporates the functions and
features that our communities have requested."
Pioneer Basic Release
2.1 represents the most user-friendly version Technalign has released
since its beginnings in 2002. Users can now make the transition from Windows
easily and be up and running in no time. Those consumer users who have
little or no experience running Linux can visit one of over 1,400 Technalign
Partners who will perform a Windows to Pioneer conversion as well as walk-throughs
and training. This version of Pioneer Basic is now the perfect fit for
SOHO to the large enterprise.
The Pioneer Knowledge
Base will provide the method of upgrading to Pioneer Basic 2.1 and it
is recommended that users perform the upgrade or move to Release 2.1.
The upgrade would also require Automatix to be changed as well.
Technalign plans to
start the change on all it's releases including Pioneer Stagecoach and
Pioneer MigrationSERVER. Pioneer Rifleman will continue development under
the new 2.1 release.
Pioneer can be downloaded
from the Pioneer download pages. Technalign's Pioneer Linux products are
free to Consumers and Nonprofit organizations. Commercial and those requiring
support from a Partner, or Technalign directly must purchase a boxed set.
Those running Pioneer
Linux Releases 1.0 and 2.0 can upgrade. A Knowledge Base article provides
the methods for the upgrade.
