  To: musl, sabotage

fixed:
- X11 finally works well (use startx to launch)
- lxde desktop is now polished and functional
- alsa works (need to run "alsactl init 3", and a ~/.asoundrc which 
points to card 3, device 0
   see 
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Advanced_Linux_Sound_Architecture#Set_the_default_sound_card 
;
   (the alsa test program "speaker-test" doesnt work, it is buggy 
(SIGFPE), use lxmusic to test.)
   to set volume use alsamixer.
- 2 kernels (enter sabotage-grsec at boot prompt for grsec kernel, the 
default kernel is non-grsec)
- many bugfixes for Gtk and Glib using programs that caused UB
- possibility to switch keyboard layouts: use "loadkeys" in linux 
console (see usage text), or edit /etc/xinitrc for X11

updated programs:
- musl 0.9.7
- luajit 2.0 beta 11 hotfix 1 (mostly equivalent to luajit 2.0.0 
release, which will be out tomorrow)
- gcc 4.5.4

still missing:
- a desktop browser that comes with minimal dependencies (currently only 
lynx can be used to browse the interwebs)
- latest xchat + current patches from git


the images can be directly used in qemu, however qemu i386 seems to have 
a bug which affects the grsec kernel
to use the images in Virtual Box, use "VBoxManage convertfromraw" to 
convert the img to VDI format,
and after booting the image, edit /bin/X and uncomment the virtual-box 
specific stuff).
see earlier release announcements for how to access the rootfs by 
mounting the imagefile directly.

root password is sabotage

the images extract to a 4GB imagefile (about 1.5 GB in use).

https://github.com/rofl0r/sabotage

read COOKBOOK and README in the git repo for further usage info.

to remove an unwanted package, use butch-unlink packagename (that 
removes the symbolic links) and then rm -rf /opt/packagename.
before using butch, the package manager, cd into /src and run ". 
config", to set up the required ENV variables.
