[manjaro-general] 2nd Release Candidate of Manjaro KDE 0.8.9 available!

[Manjaro Linux | Manjaro Linux: Manjaro Team]

[![kde089rc1][1]][2][![kde089rc1-1][3]][4]We are happy to announce our second release candidate of Manjaro KDE Edition.

The **KDE edition**, featuring **KDE 4.12.1**, was designed to get all Windows users a new home here at Manjaro. We gave this edition a sleak new look to match look and feel to our other editions. With **Turbulence** you can customize your installation now even more. **KDE-Connect** will handle your Android phone. Share your files and even control your desktop with your pone. Everything you expect from KDE can be found on this install media.

**Turbulence** started as a tool to customize various aspects of your operating system at first boot for the KDE desktop. Similar to Chakra's kapudan, written in QT and Python, Turbulence is completely unique to Manjaro. Turbulence can be also found in our Openbox Edition.

Some of it's features are:
