New Linux Distribution Brings Goodies to Debian (OStatic)
Susan Linton takes
a look at Saline OS 1.0, a new distribution based on Debian Squeeze. "
Saline OS is delivered as an installable live CD and features Linux 2.6.36, Xorg X Server 1.7.7, and GCC 4.4.5. Chromium Web browser, IceDove mail client, Rhythmbox, Fotoxx photo manager, Parole video player, Osmo organizer, OpenOffice.org, Pidgin, and Xfburn media creator are part of the software stack. Synaptic setup with Debian Squeeze repositores is available to install other software if desired. An icon on the upper panel launches automatic updates, which are pulled in from Debian Squeeze. The lower panel with lots of application launchers hides until hover."
