rough edges

I'll say it right from the start: TORCS isn't complete. Even though the 1.x version number usually denotes a program that has stepped out from testing and has emerged (gentoo pun) as a complete application.

TORCS visually ok, though there are far too many rough edges and I experienced a number of crashes while playing the game.

Christoph Thiel announced the first alpha release of openSUSE 11.1: "openSUSE 11.1 Alpha1 is available -- but beware, this is an Alpha with very rough edges!

The first openSUSE 11.1 alpha release has been announced, "but beware, this is an Alpha with very rough edges!" There does not appear to be much information posted (beyond the roadmap on what's in 11.1.

Ubuntu, meanwhile, has released the third Intrepid Ibex alpha.

See this page for more information on the alpha3 release.

While testing this on a Thinkpad R51, the system didn't boot after first stage installation. We are still looking into this issue....

Mandriva 2009 Alpha 2 hit the wires yesterday for both the KDE and Gnome desktops. As usual I did the download/ISO burn/boot three-step to check out the KDE version.

And as usual, in spite of glowing reviews it had enough rough edges to constantly remind me this is an alpha release.

Everybody's talking these days about the brand new beta release of Firefox 3, that it brings many improvements and memory leaks fixes, that it is extremely fast and polishes rough edges.

Therefore I wanted to try it myself, but I didn't want to download the binary archive and do some nasty things to my system.
