NEW • Development Release: gNewSense 3.0 Beta 1 |
 |
Sam Geeraerts has announced the availability of the initial beta release of gNewSense 3.0. gNewSense is a Debian-based distribution sponsored by Free Software Foundation and built strictly from free ("libre") software only. This version is based on Debian 6.0 "Squeeze" (with GNOME 2). From the release announcement: "The beta release of gNewSense 3.0 (code name 'Parkes') is available for download. There are netboot images for all 3 architectures and a live CD for i386. I'd like some feedback on that first before I spend time on creating a live CD for amd64. I also hope to resolve some of the following issues with the live CD shortly: the live installer (which can be started with the icon on the live desktop) fails at step 'Configure the package manager', the text and GUI install (started from the boot menu) do work; you get an i486 kernel by default, you can install the i686 kernel like any other package once you've booted the system; boot menu items Memtest86+ and Help fall off the bottom of the screen...."

NEW • Distribution Release: Hybryde Linux 13.04 |

Olivier Larrieu has announced the release of Hybryde Linux 13.04, a rather unusual distribution which ships with 11 desktop user interfaces (Enlightenment, GNOME 2, GNOME 3, KDE, LXDE, Openbox, Unity, FVWM, Xfce, MATE and Cinnamon) and which provides a way to seamlessly switch between them without a need to restart the X window system. This it does so via a default home-made desktop called HY-D-V1: "After more than five months, we have a new concept: HY-D-V1 which is a new paradigm for the desktop. It works with web technologies. This new version, Hybryde 'Fusion', includes HY-D-V1 which has been created for artists and users who want to transform their desktop into an artistic tool and for those who want to play with graphic effects. That's because Linux users are not merely professionals and because computers are not reserved to business use alone."
