The first beta of Xfce 4.6 is now available
We are one month since the release of Xfce 4.6 ALPHA. And now it's time to release the first BETA, codename 'Fuzzy'.
A lot of bugs have been fixed in this release, a few highlights:
- Xfwm4 can now detect if a program is unresponsive. It will show a dialog to let the user kill it.
- Xfce4-session will start up significantly faster by using parallel startup.
- It is possible to configure the keyboard-layout.
- Toggling event-sounds with libcanberra + gtk 2.14 is now possible (meaning: you can turn them off).
And lets not forget the translations, thanks to them Xfce 4.6.0 will be available to a lot of people in their native language.
Ofcourse, this is still a beta. This means that not everything is working perfectly now.
