AntiX 6.5 RC5

AntiX runs a 2.6.15 kernel and offers a choice of Fluxbox or IceWM as the desktop environment. It is architected for i586 and x86_64-bit machines and only has about a 400MB footprint.

AntiX, is an attempt to give something back to the community, and aimed for boxes with 128MB RAM (it does work with 64MB RAM + 128MB swap). You can call it whatever you like, but it is supposed to be like antics (fun) and antiques (i.e., older boxes)





The main applications include:
Abiword text editor

Firefox 2.0 browser

GAIM 1.5 instant messenger

Mplayer media player

Xchat chat client

GIMP 2.2.13 graphics editor

xpdf
Also included are: Gnumeric, Sylpheed-claws, Dillo, Links2, LeafPad, Nano, gftp, Pan, Irssi, Raggle RSS reader, Gtk-Gnutella, BitTorrent, Flash, Xmms, Scite, Audacity, Xine, "Midnight Commander," Rox-filer, Xarchive, XCdroast and Graveman.


Note: when you run the live CD, you need to supply a login name and password -- both are "demo". After experimenting with the live CD, if you want to install antiX to your hard drive, you need to run the minstall MEPIS installer. To do that, right-click your mouse and select Admin/Tools > Mepis Admin > Install. Now, you will be prompted for the "root" account password; at this point type "root" and hit Enter. That should launch the installer.

DVD repositorios

Esta es la dirección de los archivos de ubuntu

http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/

Una vez que bajes los archivos a un disco, crea directorios con el tamaño del dvd que vas a grabar y antes de grabar los archivos ejecuta

sudo dpkg-scanpackages . /dev/null | gzip -9c > Packages.gz

Esto te crea el archivo Packages.gz que luego a tu synaptic le permitirá tomar al dvd como repositorio.

Enlightenment E17 en Ubuntu 7.04

Instalar Enlightenment 17 en Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn
21 05 2007

Bueno, a mi personalmente no me gusta Enlightenment pero hay mucha gente que sí, y cuando lo quise instalar para mi fue un lio porque era muy principiante pero esa es otra historia para instalar Enlightenment se hace esto:

1) anda a la consola y escribe:
sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list (ubuntu)

sudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list (kubuntu)

y agrega estas lineas al archivo de repositorios.

## Enlightenment 17 repository “edevelop.org”
deb http://edevelop.org/pkg-e/ubuntu feisty e17
deb-src http://edevelop.org/pkg-e/ubuntu feisty e1

copialo tal cual, es para tener mejor orden :)

luego cierra y en consola escribe:

wget http://lut1n.ifrance.com/repo_key.asc

sudo apt-key add repo_key.asc

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

Ahora instalamos E17 en consola escribiendo:

sudo aptitude install enlightenment enlightenment-data enlightenment-dev enlightenment-dbg e17 e17-devel-extras

y Listo E17 en tu Desktop enviroment como WM :)

eso si cierra seción y luego elije enlightenment como secion antes de iniciar :)
