4 The Amnesic Incognito Live System, version 0.7.1, is out.
6 This is a bugfix-only release mainly aimed at fixing serious security
7 issues in bundled software. All users must upgrade as soon as
14 Notable user-visible changes include:
16 * Vidalia: new 0.2.12-2+tails1 custom package.
19 - Don't show Foxyproxy's status / icon in FF statusbar to prevent users
20 from accidentaly / unconsciously put their anonymity at risk.
23 - Upgrade Linux kernel to Debian's 2.6.32-33: fixes tons of bugs,
24 including the infamous missing mouse cursor one. Oh, and it closes
25 a few security holes at well.
27 - Do not install pppoeconf (superseeded by NetworkManager).
28 - Upgrade macchanger to Debian testing package to ease development of
29 future Tails releases.
30 - Debian security upgrades: x11-xserver-utils (DSA-2213-1), isc-dhcp
31 (DSA-2216-1), libmodplug (DSA-2226-1).
33 * Protecting against memory recovery
34 - Add Italian translation for tails-kexec. Thanks to Marco A. Calamari.
35 - Make it clear what it may mean if the system does not power off
37 - Use kexec's --reset-vga option that might fix display corruption issues
40 * WhisperBack (encrypted bug reporting software) was upgraded to 1.4.1:
41 - localizes the documentation wiki's URL
42 - uses WebKit to display the bug reporting help page
43 - now is usable on really small screens.
46 - Install mobile-broadband-provider-info for better 3G support.
47 - Add back GNOME system icons to menus.
48 - tails-security-check: avoid generating double-slashes in the Atom
50 - Remove "vga=788" boot parameter which breaks the boot on some hardware.
51 - Remove now useless "splash" boot parameter.
52 - Fix a bunch of i386-isms.
53 - Pass the noswap option to the kernel. This does not change actual Tails
54 behaviour but prevents users from unnecessarily worrying because of
55 the "Activating swap" boot message.
57 Plus the usual bunch of minor bug reports and improvements.

67 # Can I use it on a pre-Intel Mac computer?
69 Tails images with *i386* in their name work on the Intel x86
70 architecture only. However, we've been working towards releasing a
71 Tails image suitable for the pre-Intel Macs hardware (PowerPC
72 architecture). Stay tuned, it will be prepared and made available
