The installation is available in about thirty languages and includes configuration of the X server for many graphic cards. This release includes a number of up-to-date large software packages, such as the K Desktop Environment 3.3 (KDE), the GNOME desktop environment 2.8...." Find out more in the release announcement and release notes. The biggest distribution release ever, Debian 3.1 comes on no fewer than 29 CDs (binary + source); these can be downloaded from one of the Debian mirrors.
