Sabayon 7 tries on GNOME 3.2 plus experimental 'Fusion Kernel'
Oct. 14, 2011

The Gentoo-based Sabayon 7.0 is now available, equipped with both an "ultra-optimized" version of the Linux 3.0 kernel and an experimental "Fusion Kernel." Sabayon 7.0 offers a choice of GNOME 3.2, KDE 4.7, and Xfce 4.8 desktop environments, plus LibreOffice 3.4.3.2 and native support for Btrfs.

Like the recent Fedora 16 and OpenSUSE 12.1 betas, as well as the final Ubuntu 11.10 distro, Sabayon 7 moves to GNOME 3.2 -- the latest bug-fixed and slightly modified version of the controversial GNOME 3 desktop. Meanwhile, Sabayon 7 moves up to an "ultra-optimized" version of Linux 3.0, and offers a "Zen"-like, experimental "Fusion Kernel" with BFS and BFQ schedulers and other "Sabayon-flavoured Linux kernel sources on steroids."
