Software changes
  • In CLDX, the Liferea news aggregator was replaced by the RSS plugin for Claws-Mail.

  • CLDX includes system information and benchmark HardInfo.
  • The Shotwell photo suite is not provided out of box anymore.

  • On the other hand, CLS gets a bit smaller as it provides no more wallpapers!
  • Your CPU frequency will from now on be checked with cpupower instead of the traditional cpufrequtils.
