Following the launch of Jolicloud Alpha 2c, we received a lot of feedback showing that most existing audio issues had been solved. For general improvement we also decided to upgrade to the latest stable kernel version (version 2.6.30.4 on kernel.org for our more tech audience).
All you need to do is update your system. Please have a look at this previous post if you are new to Jolicloud and want to know more about our automatic-update tool.
Here are the main improvements that come with this new system update:
Performance: Some users saw their system slow down after installing the Alpha 2c. The performance is now improved on all Atom N270 and Celeron processors netbooks (including Asus Eee PC 701, 900 and 1000HD). The system is also faster now on the Dell Mini and the HP Mini. Incidentally, the netbook launcher icon display bugs have also been fixed.
Sound: The issue with the microphone on the Dell Mini 9 is fixed, and the audio problems reported on all supported netbook models should now be solved. if it’s not the case, please let us know and make sure you specify what netbook model you use.
We hope you enjoy the Jolicloud Alpha 2c and the new kernel!

Sounds, I’d love to enjoy the new release, but I’ve been waiting for an invite for ages.
