Knoppix, one of the best original Linux LiveCD distributions, experienced its version 6.7 release this weekend.

Knoppix 6.7 pulls in various package updates from Debian testing/unstable, finally provides experimental support for Nouveau KMS, switches over to LibreOffice, uses the Chromium 12 web-browser, has an optional 64-bit kernel boot option and ADRIANE has been updated against version 1.4.

ADRAINE is a Knoppix innovation that stands for Audio Desktop Reference Implementation And Networking Environment. This is a talking menu system that's designed to lower the barrier for beginner computer users, even if they have no visual sight of the computer monitor.
