Welcome to this year's second edition of DistroWatch Weekly. Our apologies to all those who have had trouble visiting this site over the past week - this was caused by a failure of one of the machines providing DNS services for DistroWatch.com. The domain is resolving again, but in case a similar problem happens in the future, just a reminder that you can still visit us at http://66.111.55.60.
Xandros - a community player?
The first reviews of the recently released Xandros Desktop 2.0 are in and it is nice to see that the product continues to gather praise. With all its usability enhancements and innovative approach to desktop computing, Xandros Desktop has quite possibly done more than any other Linux company to bring our favourite operating system closer to non-technical users as a viable replacement for Windows. As such, Xandros deserves our admiration.
But product quality aside, there is one dark aspect of the company that is rarely mentioned in reviews: Xandros's involvement -- or lack, thereof -- in the Linux and Open Source Software developer community. It is a well-known fact that Red Hat employs a famous kernel developer, or that SUSE sponsors KDE and ALSA. Even some smaller Linux companies are actively contributing, a good example of which is Lindows.com's sponsorship of Gaim and other Open Source projects. These types of sponsorship deals benefit all of us - one doesn't need to be a Red Hat, SUSE or LindowsOS user to take advantage of the new features in the Linux kernel or the improved cross-platform compatibility in the latest version of the popular instant messenger. But what about Xandros? Besides the general "bug fix contributions" and a few proprietary, undistributable and closed-source applications, what exactly has Xandros done to contribute to the development of Linux and Free Software? Has it sponsored any Open Source project? Has it released any of its own work under GPL? No, as far as we know, it has not.
Given the above, should we, as a community of Linux users, support a company which bases its products on Linux and other Open Source Software without making any solid effort to contribute back? Or should we just accept that Xandros is a business, which needs to make a profit to survive and therefore is not expected to do us any favours? It would be nice if the company was capable of sponsoring third-party projects or willing to release some of its own code for the benefit of the rest of us, but is this a realistic expectation? Please discuss below.
SystemRescueCD for partition management
Have you ever needed to make some major changes to your hard disk partitions and wondered which tool to use? If so, forget the US$70 Partition Magic and download the free SystemRescueCD instead. It comes with two excellent graphical partitioning tools, which can be used without installing and configuring XFree86 (they work with the help of QtEmbedded). These are QtParted and PartGui. Between them, they are capable of creating, formatting, deleting and resizing many partition types, including FAT, NTFS, ext2/ext3, ReiserFS, JFS and XFS (resizing of JFS or XFS is not supported) and manage other aspects of your hard disks. All partition management is done in a nice graphical environment, very similar to Partition Magic itself, except that the SystemRescueCD is a lot more functional and it costs exactly zero dollars.
While the partitioning ability of SystemRescueCD is probably its most interesting feature, the CD comes with a number of other interesting utilities. One of them is Partimage, a Ghost/DriveImage clone for Linux, which is able to save and restore any partition of a hard disk into an image file. Also included are many file system and archiving tools, as well as a CD burning utility and even a free virus scanning program - Clam Anti-Virus. See these screenshots and read about the product's features for further information.
The latest version of SystemRescueCD is 0.2.9 and you can download it from here (the ISO image is about 80MB in size).
MadPenguin.org turns one
"It was one year ago today (12:00AM January 12, 2003) that Mad Penguin officially came online. In that time, we have covered more ground than similar sites that have been around for many more years. In short, we have kicked some serious penguin booty, and we have all of you to thank for it... our readers. It seems like only yesterday that MadHunter emailed me proclaiming that we had 12 users online at the same time. It was such a big accomplishment at the time considering that we were running the site on an old server out of my third bedroom on a cable connection. Soon, the site took off and it took over my Internet connection with its bandwidth usage."
This is a good time to open a bottle of your favourite beverage and celebrate: MadPenguin.org is definitely one of the more imaginative Linux web sites on the Internet: with original content, comprehensive reviews, wealth of tips and tricks and other useful information, it is worth a bookmark and a daily visit! Congratulations and many happy returns!

Upcoming Releases and Announcements |
Aurox Linux 9.3
Aurox is working on a new Aurox Linux release, version 9.3: "This release will contain many changes. First of all, Aurox 9.3 will be based on Fedora Core. Since Red Hat stopped developing their distribution we cannot base our work on Red Hat 9, which will be soon outdated. We believe that free community spirit will help the Fedora Project. Aurox 9.3 (and further) will have all the features that were present in previous versions: multimedia support (MP3, DVD, all kinds of video files), educational software, games. Since the very beginning of Aurox we emphasised language support -- Aurox 9.3 will have Polish installer as usual (a feature still missing in Fedora). Aurox 9.3 will provide KDE with its original look & feel and a "Light Desktop" for slower machines. Expected release date: 15 March 2004. If you want to help, visit our site and subscribe to aurox-devel list!"
Agnula/DeMuDi 1.1.0
The AGNULA GNU Audio Distribution project is entering its final testing phase before the release of version 1.1.0: "As we approach the release of AGNULA/DeMuDi 1.1.0 (which should hopefully go out on Jan 15, 2004) we'd like to spread awareness on the availability of the debian packages we've been working on in the past weeks. These packages are built against a frozen snapshot of Debian Unstable (and specifically, the snapshot frozen at 15/11/2003) but they should work on Sarge systems too, as there hasn't been any major upgrade between the two. They won't work without major overhaul on Debian Woody systems, unfortunately - please read our information about how to use a subset of our Debian packages installing from CD or installing over the network on a stable Debian system."

DistroWatch in Investor's Business Daily
- A reader wrote: "Congratulations on being quoted in today's (Jan 8, 2004) edition of Investor's Business Daily."
No, we are not ready for an IPO just yet, but we were still pleased to see that Investor's Business Daily took interest in Linux distributions in its article entitled "Smaller Versions Of Linux Start Popping Up". Besides mentioning your favourite Linux web site, the author also talks about Puppy Linux, Damn Small Linux, LinuxInstall.org and a few other Linux distributions. The article is available to subscribers only at investors.com.
That's all for this week, see you next Monday :-)
