Nexradix Description

A GNU/Linux distribution Nexradix is a GNU/Linux operating system that is specifically designed to be easily and freely usable and redistributable, even for commercial purposes. You can download it for free, or you can purchase a physical copy via the Twisted Lincoln, Inc. online store.Once you have the ISO image on your system, you'll need to burn it to a DVD. Since an ISO image represents the full contents of a disc within one file, you'll need to use your DVD burning software's "image burning" functionality, rather than simply coping the single file to a DVD. This can typically be found within your software's menu system as "burn disc image" or "burn DVD from image," or something similar. If you need assistance in creating your disc, feel free to contact us via the official Twisted Lincoln, Inc. discussion forums. Requirements: · Penium III 600mhz or better CPU · 384mb of Ram · 4gb free disk space What's New in This Release: · Upgrades from prior versions (except 1.10) are now supported directly from the installation DVD, without requiring any internet access. Simply browse to the "nxr-upgrade" directory, and execute the "Upgrade_Nexradix" script, and you will be guided through the upgrade. · A "tools" directory was added to the base DVD directory. Inside is a tool called Ext2Fsd -- it provides driver support for ext2/ext3 under Microsoft Windows. This was added to provide the ability to access files on a Nexradix? partition in a dual-boot scenario. · Upgraded Iceweasel to version 3.5, which provides a large number of new features, including native support for Ogg Theora playback, a private browsing mode, and many huge speed improvements. · Improved the OEM configuration utilities with a new graphical interface. Admins can now completely custome new user settings via the graphical environment, as well as backup and restore these settings. Simply log in under the "oem" user, and the tools will be on the desktop automatically. · Added a backup archive of the default new user profile settings, which can be easily restored if needed. · EXE files are now displayed with their native icons (when available). · Added the Wine Gecko HTML rendering engine, allowing Wine to render HTML pages without a separate download. · Removed the Transmission Bittorrent Client, and replaced it with Deluge -- the new client adds dozens of improvements, including vastly improved interface integration, support for filtering sites, and various performance improvements. Deluge is also cross-platform, making it a better choice for users switching to GNU/Linux for the first time. · Torrent files now have their own icons. · Set the Ctrl-Alt-Escape shortcut to "xkill" -- a program that changes your cursor in to an "X" that will close any application you click on. · Set the Alt-F11 shortcut combination to make the current window fullscreen (with no title bar). · Added a set of Nautilus templates, which make it quick and easy to create new files by right-clicking on the desktop. · When running the file browser as root (admin), you can now graphically create hardlinks via a right-click menu option. · Replaced F-Spot with GThumb -- GThumb has fewer dependencies, is lighter-weight, and provides comparable features to F-Spot. · Added a new, dark GNOME Forest theme that uses the default Nexradix? color scheme, but with a darker look. · Added a menu item to allow the quick and easy launch of a "guest session" for temporary users. · Added a new graphical utility to aid in the backup and restore of Icedove email profiles. · Improved the startup splash screen with a new design that looks better on a wider range of displays. · A set of default xorg.conf files are now included in /etc/X11, allowing admins easy access to basic templates when troubleshooting. · Upgraded all major packages and components to match upstream release of 9.04 (jaunty). · ...and a variety of bug fixes and misc. improvements
