<p> 
Gentoo Linux is proud to announce the availability of a new <b>LiveDVD</b> to
celebrate the continued collaboration between Gentoo users and developers,
The LiveDVD features a superb list of packages, some of which are listed below.
</p>

<p>
A special thanks to the <uri link="/proj/en/infrastructure/">Gentoo
  Infrastructure Team</uri> and <uri link="http://google.com/+FernandoReyes">
  likewhoa</uri>. Their hard work behind the scenes provide the resources, 
  services and technology necessary to support the Gentoo Linux project.
</p>

<ul>
  <li>
	Packages included in this release: Linux Kernel 3.15.6, Xorg 1.16.0, 
	KDE 4.13.3, Gnome 3.12.2, XFCE 4.10, Fluxbox 1.3.5, LXQT Desktop 0.7.0,

  </li>
  <li>
    If you want to see if your package is included we have generated both the
    <uri link="/proj/en/pr/releases/20140826/x86-amd64.pkg.txt">x86 package
      list</uri>, and <uri
      link="/proj/en/pr/releases/20140826/amd64.pkg.txt">amd64 package
      list</uri>. 
	  The FAQ is located at <uri
            link="/proj/en/pr/releases/20140826/faq.xml">FAQ</uri>. DVD cases and 
	  covers for the 20140826 release are located at 
	  <uri link="/proj/en/pr/releases/20140826/graphics.xml">Artwork</uri>.
	  Persistence mode is back in the 20140826 release!.
  </li>
</ul>

<p>
The LiveDVD is <b>available in two flavors</b>: a hybrid x86/x86_64 version, and
an x86_64 multi lib version. The <path>livedvd-x86-amd64-32ul-20140826</path> version
will work on 32-bit x86 or 64-bit x86_64. If your CPU architecture is x86, then
boot with the default <c>gentoo</c> kernel. If your arch is <uri
link="/doc/en/gentoo-amd64-faq.xml#difference">amd64</uri>, boot with the
<c>gentoo64</c> kernel. This means you can boot a 64-bit kernel and install a
customized 64-bit user land while using the provided 32-bit user land. The
<path>livedvd-amd64-multilib-20140826</path> version is for x86_64 only.
