ExTiX
ExTiX è una distribuzione Linux basata su Ubuntu e utilizzante una versione customizzata del desktop manager GNOME 3. In passato la distribuzione è stata invece derivata da Swiss Linux System e Debian Sid.
Versione 15.1
Questa versione contiene (in Inglese):
- ExTiX Gnome is now based on Ubuntu 14.10 Utopic Unicorn. Gnome has been upgraded to version 3.14. (Not in Ubuntu’s repositories). All packages have been updated to the latest version by 150104. Kernel 3.16.0-21-exton is used. (Kernel.org’s kernel 3.16.4).
- Google Chrome is included, which makes it possible to watch Netflix movies. It is not possible in Firefox (in Linux). 3. I have also installed BlueGriffon Web Editor. “BlueGriffon is a new WYSIWYG content editor for the World Wide Web. Powered by Gecko, the rendering engine of Firefox, it’s a modern and robust solution to edit Web pages in conformance to the latest Web Standards”. Only to be compared with Dreamweaver. (In my opinion).
- My new lighter version of ExTiX is now based on Ubuntu 14.10 “Utopic Unicorn”. It uses Razor-qt as Desktop Environment, Slim as Login Manager and kernel 3.16.0-21-exton, equivalent to Kernel.orgs stable kernel 3.16.4. (“Razor-qt is an advanced, easy-to-use, and fast desktop environment based on Qt technologies. It has been tailored for users who value simplicity, speed, and an intuitive interface”). My info/instructions below also apply to ExTiX Light. I.e. just log in as root (with password root) or extix (with no password) from Slim’s login screen to Razor-qt.
