The DoudouLinux development team has announced the availability of a new test release of DoudouLinux, a Debian-based distribution targeted at young children: "This latest development release is a bit late but it is finally out. It is still based on Debian 'Squeeze', the current stable release of Debian. Therefore our development version is perfectly stable and you can safely try it.

Compared to 2011-11: many new applications and games; deep code re-factoring under the skin due to the ARM port; improved look & feel; size of icons in advanced activities is now computed at boot to occupy around half the screen area; added playlists for online music and videos using contents from archive.org.

Development Release: DoudouLinux 2011-11 |
|
DoudouLinux 2011-11, a new development build of the Debian-based distribution designed for young children, is out and ready for testing: "This development release is a bit late but it is finally out! This is our second build based on Debian 'Squeeze', the current stable release of Debian GNU/Linux. Therefore our development version is perfectly stable and you can safely try it! However it still requires a lot of work before being promoted as our new official release (expected for mid 2012) and there are small remaining issues, particularly regarding to installation and reboot/shutdown that may hang. The following improvements have been brought compared to 2011-08: new application PixFrogger; animated splash during system boot; auto-login can be activated by selecting only one activity in the activities menu; internal hard disks are now all mounted read-only at boot, which really prevents children from writing on them...."
