I have tried to do a dist-upgrade but it is failing with udev error because the kernel is too old or doesn't support the pre-reqs.

Since release 198, udev requires support for the following features in the running kernel:

Please upgrade your kernel before or while upgrading udev.

Any chance we can get an update please?

edit: I was able to upgrade the kernel with one of Roman's and then was able to dist-upgrade https://romanrm.net/a10/kernel

I'm trying to update X1 but udev is failing with the same error as dels78. This weekend I'm going to install Roman's kernel, but until that I will watch this thread for whether we are going to have a update or not.

Edit: I updated the kernel and did a dist-upgrade. Many things has stoped working. My rc.locals is not working anymore and many applications like synapitc and gparted does not even open anymore. Good thing I have a back up image.

igorpecovnik has server versions only.

The only actively supported workstation seems to be ARUNTU: http://cubiuntu.com/

swetoast commented 9 years ago

good so now all the alternatives are covered and fyi a server basicly can be turned into a workstation since its all debian

dllud commented 8 years ago

+1 for a new build based on jessie.
