GeckoLinux
GeckoLinux is a Linux spin based on the openSUSE distribution, with a focus on polish and out-of-the-box usability on the desktop. The distribution features many desktop editions which can be installed from live discs. Some patent encumbered open source software is included in GeckoLinux which is not available in the default installation of openSUSE. Special attention has been given to the quality of the font rendering. GeckoLinux provides two main editions, Static (which is based on openSUSE Leap) and Rolling (based on openSUSE Tumbleweed).

| About T2
|
| T2 is an open-source system development environment (or distribution build kit if you are more familiar with that term). T2 allows the creation of custom distributions with bleeding-edge technology. Currently, the Linux kernel is normally used, but the project is expanding to Hurd, OpenDarwin and OpenBSD. T2 started as a community driven fork from the ROCK Linux Project with the aim to create a decentralised development and a clean framework for spin-off projects and customised distributions.

Development Release: T2 2.1.0 Beta 2 |
|
The second beta release of T2, a recently created community fork of ROCK Linux, has been released: "The T2 project tagged and released the internal milestone 2.1.0-beta2 ('Your own sweet way'). The release includes more ROCK to T2 naming transitions, including the rename of the internally used toolchain directory from ROCK to TOOLCHAIN, fixes for Findutils, and enhanced X.org Radeon support (especially on PowerPC). The command wrapper code got a significant restructuring so that ccache works more reliable now, as well as general ccache fixes and basic distcc support. We now support marking download URLs as 'no mirror'. And the many updates include GTK+ 2.6.0 as well as FreeType 2.1.7." Read the release announcement as published on the distribution's home page. The source tarball for building T2 is available from here: t2-2.1.0-beta2.tar.bz2 (1.6MB).

Development Release: T2 2.1.0 Beta |
|
T2 is a new Linux distribution (or a "distribution build kit" to be more precise) recently forked from ROCK Linux. Its main purpose is to serve as a clean framework for spin-off projects and customised distributions. The project has released a first beta build, version 2.1.0: "The T2 Project today announced the immediate availability of the milestone release T2 2.1.0-beta 'Today is gonna be the day'. The release includes updates to Gnome 2.8.2, KDE 3.3.2, as well as updates in the toolchain and many other packages. Furthermore, we like to announce that Alejandro Mery was elected as stable release maintainer for the 2.1-stable series." Here is the full announcement, as published on the project's mailing list. Custom distributions can easily built with T2 by downloading the build scripts and by following these instructions.
