Joanna Rutkowska has announced the availability of the second beta release of Qubes OS 2, a Fedora-based desktop Linux distribution whose main concept is "security by isolation" by using domains implemented as lightweight Xen virtual machines: "Qubes 2 beta 2 has been released. We're progressing fast and today I would like to announce the release of Qubes R2 beta 2. The major changes in this beta release include: upgraded Dom0 distribution to the latest Fedora 18 (all previous releases used Fedora 13 for Dom0); upgraded default VM template also to Fedora 18; upgraded Dom0 kernel to 3.7.6; upgraded KDE environment in Dom0 (KDE 4.9); introduced Xfce 4.10 environment for Dom0 as an alternative to KDE; a few other fixes and improvements, including the recently discussed disposable VM-based PDF converter. The upgrade of the Dom0 distribution and kernel should significantly improve hardware compatibility." See the release announcement for more information and a screenshot.
