The release was tested on Ubuntu desktop releases 9.10 and 10.4 and can work on any system with kernel versions 2.6.27 to 2.6.33. I would be glad to know if Next3 was tested on other distributions. Please send your feedbacks to next3-users@lists.sourceforge.net and state the distribution and kernel version which you are using. Thanks for helping me deliver simple and friendly Next3 snapshots to everyone, Amir.
