OpenLab GNU/Linux

Last Update: Wednesday 27 July 2011 11:53 GMT


OpenLab GNU/Linux
OpenLab GNU/Linux is an easy-to-use Slackware-based distribution featuring innovative and user-oriented design. Developed in South Africa since 2001, the product takes shape in the form of an installable live CD. It also includes OLAD (OpenLab ADministration tool) and many other innovations ranging from backend systems, such as the hyperdrive suite which simplifies the handling of removable media, to user-level enhancements, such as the highly integrated desktop theme complemented by the award-winning Nuvola icon set.

Table Notes and Explanations
  • Select view: Major packages only (52) All tracked packages (213)
  • Notes: In case where multiple versions of a package are shipped with a distribution, only the default version appears in the table. For indication about the GNOME version, please check the 'nautilus' and 'gnome-shell' packages. As per the Apache project's recommendations, apache 1.3.x is referred to as 'apache', while apache 2.x is referred to as 'httpd'.
  • Colour scheme: green text = latest stable version, red text = development or beta version. The function determining beta versions is not 100% reliable due to a wide variety of versioning schemes.
