Distribution Release: Kurumin Linux 7.0 Light |

The Kurumin project has announced the release of Kurumin Light 7.0, a mini-CD edition of the Brazilian distribution based on Debian GNU/Linux. Kurumin Light comes on only 182 MB, but includes the full KDE desktop with Konqueror and Kaffeine, the Kurumin-specific magic icons and all the custom scripts. Compared to the standard edition, it lacks some of the larger applications, such as OpenOffice.org and Java, and it also comes without support for scanners and 3D acceleration. Kurumin Light can be used as a live CD, but a hard disk installation script is also available for those who wish to give it a permanent space on their hard disk. More information about Kurumin Light can be found on the project's web site (in Portuguese). Download: kurumin-light-7.0.iso (182MB, MD5).

Distribution Release: Kurumin Linux 6.1 "Light" |
|
A new, stripped-down edition of Kurumin Linux 6.1 has been released. The Kurumin project, which started in 2003 as a 200MB bootable CD, but has since expanded to include OpenOffice.org, Java and many other popular software applications, is returning to its roots with "Kurumin Light". Besides eliminating some of the larger software packages, as well as dropping support for scanners and 3D accelerated graphics cards, this 182MB live CD has been optimised for fast booting and reduced memory consumption. As such, Kurumin "Light" fits on any mini-CD and 256MB USB storage device, and it can also serve as a quick hard-disk installation media. Please see the release announcement (in Portuguese) for further information. Download from here: kurumin-light-6.1.iso (182MB, MD5).

Development Release: Kurumin Linux 7.0 Alpha |
|
Carlos Morimoto has announced the start of a new development cycle leading towards Kurumin Linux 7.0. According to the release announcement (in Portuguese), version 7.0 is expected to be a special, "long-lasting" release, based on Debian "etch". As such, the Kurumin development tree has been synchronised with "etch" and users can expect headache-free version updates to a relatively stable Debian "testing" branch, instead of running a more problematic combination of software from both "testing" and "unstable" Debian branches. One feature that will not be included in Kurumin 7.0 is Xgl - a technology that is not considered mature enough and which is of interest to a comparatively small proportion of Linux users - those with modern ATI or NVIDIA graphics cards. One other new feature in this release is read/write support in mounted NTFS partitions. Interested testers can download the new CD image from here: kurumin-7.0a.iso (583MB, MD5).
