VectorLinux 6.0 "SOHO" edition for small or home office is based on the KDE-4.4.2 plasma desktop with many graphical and system enhancements. All the productivity software one would need like Digikam, the gimp-2.6.10, k3b-2.0, Scribus, OpenOffice and Inkscape to name a few. The kernel is version 2.6.31.11 which adds new wireless network possibilities along with greater speed and stability. The GUI installer first introduced in the VL standard 6.0 release has seen further refinements and is the default installer. Support has been added for a wider range of graphic chipsets and both lilo and grub2 bootloaders are available. Importing user accounts from previous installs is now possible provided a separate home partition is used.
The latest versions of Firefox, Opera and SeaMonkey browsers are also included. X.org has been upgraded to version 7.4 to expand the useable hardware base for SOHO. Included out of the box is multimedia support so that all of the popular formats play without the need for searching for third party downloads to play a certain format. The latest amarok 2.3.1 is included for your music appreciation.
