NEW • Distribution Release: gnuLinEx 2006 |
| The regional government of Extremadura in Spain has announced the final release of gnuLinEx 2006, a Debian-based distribution designed for deployment in the region's government offices and schools. The new version is built on top of the Linux kernel 2.6.16, with X.Org 6.9.0 and GNOME 2.14 as the default desktop. KDE 3.5 is also available from external repositories. All packages included on the download CD are Free Software, but users who wish to install proprietary drivers and other non-free programs can do so via the AptLinex utility. One of the new features in this release is a graphical control panel for system administration. Find more information in the gnuLinEx 2006 guide (with screenshots) and in this changelog published by Barrapunto (both links in Spanish). Download: linex2006.iso (699MB, MD5). |

| About gnuLinEx |
| gnuLinEx is a Linux distribution developed by the Extremadura Regional Government in Spain. gnuLinEx is based on GNU/Debian, a Linux distribution that, thanks to its design, makes it easy to create other distributions that can inherit its advantages and get rid of some of its faults (for example, the difficulty of setup and configuration). By using a modified Debian distribution, the Extremadura Regional Government has benefited from the fact that there is a large amount of varied software for it. As a matter of fact, there are 8710 different software pieces. The stability, speed and security of Debian should also be underlined. When it was created, gnuLinEx was based on the then latest stable Debian distribution: 2.2 or Potato. Nowadays, the version based on the new stable Debian version (3.0 or Woody) is available, along with two revisions or updates. |
