DistroWatch Weekly, Issue 282
[Posted December 15, 2008 by ris]
The
DistroWatch
Weekly for December 15, 2008 is out. "
This week's feature
article shows keen Linux users how to make the most of their computer by
performing a custom install for a leaner and faster system - in this case
we build a custom Ubuntu 8.10. In the news section, openSUSE prepares for
the imminent release of version 11.1, Debian announces the upcoming second
and final release candidate of the Debian installer, the Unofficial Fedora
FAQ updates its HOWTOs for the recently released Fedora 10, the University
of Glasgow settles on Slackware Linux for its log-in server, Spain's
Trisquel is added to GNU's free distribution list, and Chile's Educalibre
gets Tuquito Linux running on Intel Classmate netbooks. We also have links
to two interesting interviews - one with Timothy Cramer from OpenSolaris
and the other with Warren Woodford of MEPIS Linux. Finally, if you are
still searching for that elusive minimalist Linux system that would run
smoothly on any old computer, take a look at Tiny Core Linux - a desktop
distro in 11 MB. Happy reading!"
