PaiPix Linux Description

PaiPix Linux is a compilation of Free Software, based on KNOPPIX live linux. PaiPix Linux is a compilation of Free Software, based on KNOPPIX live linux, that is meant to be used in any environment but with special emphasis on science and technologies.PaiPix Linux should provide an open door to the public including not only the tolls used by the scientists but also the best free applications that make your computer more interesting for any usage.If you like it for office, video or even gaming, who knows if someday you can get curious and give a look at the scientific applications that are in your DVD.PaiPix can be used at home, in medium and even large size organizations where the sharing of the compressed DVD image and the included afs file system support make it extreemely powerfull.PaiPix Linux also serves to support clusters of distributed computing (using the paipix-terminalsever), for data servers, farms simulation farms and user laboratories.PaiPix linux combines all the versatility of KNOPPIX with optimized configuration for several languages, including Portuguese. It intends to not only serve in document editing tasks but also for advanced technological and scientific systems.Using the paipix-remaster script, you can change the default language of your iso image or add your personal files to the PAIPIX DVD.This work was only possible because Free Software experts have created all the infrastructure allowing a gigantic world-wide community of software volunteers develop what is already, without any doubt, the best operative system the world.However, because (r)evolutions take time, many companies that are developing systems - which in the end are designed to store in practice the technological and scientific knowledge of mankind - still work in a closed form (proprietary).There is still a reason to use other operative systems while the community of free software does not this knowledge to the whole humanity. In the following table we include a correspondence that facilitates the migration to free software for each application. All mentioned free software is installed in PaiPix!This software is distributed without any guarantee if not the fact that a great number of components are permanently being used and tested by millions of people in the whole world.Based on Knoppix 3.8, including kernel 2.6.11. It uses the Unionfs file system that mounts the DVD image in read-write mode. Using this feature, PAIPIX can run your 3D-enabled drivers for ATI or NVIDIA cards. Just use 'knoppix install=ati' or 'knoppix install=nvidia' as boot option and run the FlightGear simulator (fgfs) to see the new fantastic 3D support in LinuxWhat's New in This Release:· PAIPIX 7.10, the upgraded PAIPIX 7. While PAIPIX 7 integrated in the same DVD the installation, live and upgrade systems, the new PAIPIX 7.10 uses backports to combine the stability of Debian Etch development, X window and KDE with upgraded kernel (2.6.22), OpenOffice.org 2.2 and many more updated applications. New scientific applications were also included. The new PAIPIX 7 GNU/Linux keeps its focus on scientific software but drops the emphasis on a pure live DVD to integrate the installation, live and upgrade systems. These solutions result form using the Debian official packages 'debian-live' and 'debian-cd', making the development of PAIPIX more sustainable in the medium range. What's New in This Release: · Kernel 2.6.26, Openoffice 3.0 and many more applications.
