Fatdog64 630RC1 is released

Release notes here: http://distro.ibiblio.org/fatdog/web/630rc1.html.

Get it from ibiblio.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/fatdog/iso/ or its mirrors.

Forum thread: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=730926#730926

Highlights:
- kernel 3.11.4 with dynamic power management support for radeon graphic cards (lower temperature, better battery life, better performance). Please see this post from the radeon driver developer himself to see how to control the power/performance balance.
- updated Xorg and multimedia libraries
- multiple sandboxes (as first discussed here).
- LXC-based sandbox (as first discussed here). Note that the current 630RC1 kernel doesn't support user namespaces because it still conflicts with XFS and we feel that XFS is more important across the board than user namespaces. This may change if we decide to adopt kernel 3.12 which has resolved this issue.
