Viola TEST-1 contains a new kernel, many updated software packages and several fixes for the reported defects. This version is synchronized with Parsix and Debian testing repositories as of April 18, 2008. Several bugs have been solved (#101, #102, #103, #105, #106), replaced GQView with EOG image viewer, removed bug-buddy, gdb and iptraf to make more free space.
