		<description><![CDATA[The final Fedora 17 beta has just been released. Fedora is Live CD distro, so you can boot it up on a CD or in a virtual machine to check it out before doing an install. I went with the default version that uses GNOME 3 for this Sneak Peek.

		<description><![CDATA[The first release candidate for Linux Mint 12 is out now, and I couldn't resist doing a sneak peek of it. I'll do a full review on DLR when the final release comes out.

Linux Mint 12, as you may have heard, uses GNOME 3.2 as its desktop environment. But the Linux Mint developers never do anything quite the same as other distros. In this release they've added MGSE (Mint GNOME Shell Extensions) that make it possible to use the GNOME 3 desktop in a way similar to previous releases of GNOME.

		<description><![CDATA[A while back I did a review of Bodhi Linux 1.0 for Desktop Linux Reviews. Bodhi has recently been updated to version 1.2 so a quick look is definitely in order. Bodhi, in case you aren't familiar with it, is an Ubuntu derivative that uses the Enlightenment desktop.

Bodhi is more of a minimalist's distribution. If you're looking for tons of software and bloat, you won't find it in Bodhi. It's really geared toward those who want to choose their applications &#038; feature sets rather than have the developers foist it on them.

		<description><![CDATA[I’ve been a distrohopper for as long as I can remember. What is a distrohopper you might be wondering? Well it’s a guy or gal who loves using different desktop distros and who frequently hops from one to another. I wrote a column about the Psychology of a Distrohopper a while back that explores what exactly goes on in the minds of distrohoppers. Here&#8217;s a brief excerpt from that column that helps define what distrohoppers are interested in: Distrohoppers have a compelling need to monitor the progress of desktop Linux by installing the latest and greatest distro. What’s changed? What new features are available? What about the theme? The icons? Distrohoppers are innately curious and have an insatiable need to keep up with the development of desktop Linux. Distrohoppers are not content to simply read a review, they want hands on experience with a new version of a distro and that’s what makes sites like Distrowatch so popular. Every time there’s a new release of a worthwhile distro, you can bet that distrohoppers will swarm the site looking for info and download links. As fun as distrohopping is, it’s not all wine and roses. There’s a dark side to never [...]

		<description><![CDATA[There’s no doubt that Fedora is one of the most popular versions of desktop Linux. As I write this column, Fedora is currently at #3 on Distrowatch page hit ranking. Only Linux Mint and Ubuntu beat it in DistroWatch&#8217;s page hit ranking system. That’s pretty good for a distro that sometimes doesn’t get nearly the same amount of attention and accolades as Ubuntu. Some folks might be unaware though that Fedora comes in a number of different versions; each designed to appeal to a particular audience. Yes, it’s true. Fedora has many faces and here’s a brief look at each of them for those who might be interested in taking another look at this fine desktop distribution. Fedora Games It might surprise some to know that a games respin of Fedora is available. Linux has never been considered a great gaming OS but there are some good games available for it, and Fedora Games might be worth the consideration of gamers. Fedora Games has a number of different gaming genres, including first person shooters, strategy, and puzzle games. You can also download additional games via Fedora’s add/remove software tool. Here’s a very brief sample of the games you’ll find available [...]

		<description><![CDATA[I last looked at openSUSE on Desktop Linux Reviews when it hit version 11.3. This update takes openSUSE up to version 11.4 so I opted to do a quick look instead of a full review on DLR.

openSUSE comes with a number of different desktop environments. For this quick look I went with the KDE version, but a GNOME version is also available on the openSUSE downloads page. You can also roll your own via the SUSE Studio site.

If you aren’t familiar with the Debian version of Linux Mint, you’re in for a real treat. LMDE has quickly become my favorite Linux distribution. It's a great blend of Debian and Linux Mint.

Ultimate Edition 2.8 comes in more than one flavor though and this week I decided to take a look at Ultimate Edition 2.8 Gamers. Linux is not famous for gaming; gaming has actually been the Achilles heel of Linux. Ultimate Edition 2.8 Gamers strives to make gaming a bit more visible and accessible in Linux.

		<description><![CDATA[The release of Ubuntu 10.10 has insured that many derivative distros have also been updated. One of the less known but very useful ones is Pinguy OS 10.10. Pinguy OS takes generic Ubuntu 10.10 and adds quite a bit of additional software and value to it.

If you are totally unfamiliar with Pinguy OS, you might want to peruse the full review of the 10.04 version I did on Desktop Linux Reviews. You can also get more background on the distro from its creator on the Pinguy OS site.

However, I have simply renamed it "Ubuntu Muslim Edition 10.10" for this quick look, to make it easier for folks to know exactly what it is.

Tiny Core is...well...it's freaking tiny. I mean really, really tiny! It weighs in at an incredibly petite 10 MB download. It's clearly designed to give you a functional but totally minimalistic distro.

		<description><![CDATA[I just finished reading a fun and interesting book about Superman and his struggles with Hollywood. So I thought it fitting that I write one of this week's Quick Looks about Super OS 10.10. No, Super OS is not from the planet Krypton and it's not vulnerable to Kryptonite. It's an Ubuntu remaster that takes the Ubuntu base on throws in a bunch of other software, drivers and codecs.

One might call it Super Ubuntu, but that probably would not please the folks at Canonical. It might invite unflattering comparisons between regular Ubuntu and Super OS, from those who prefer the latter to the former.

		<description><![CDATA[Every once in a while we hear that desktop Linux is dead and buried. A columnist at PC World recently pushed this hoary old chestnut in a column entitled “Desktop Linux: The Dream is Dead.”

Ugh.

I hate it when somebody regurgitates this stuff. It never changes and it’s never fair or accurate to desktop Linux. Most of it is simply spin, lies and distortions and it ought not to go unchallenged. Yet we see these presstitutes pushing this crap over and over again.

This release brings Lubuntu, along with the rest of the buntus, up to version 10.10. Lubuntu is a distro designed to provide a lightweight alternative to Ubuntu itself.

		<description><![CDATA[Last week I reviewed Kubuntu 10.10 and Ubuntu 10.10 over on Desktop Linux Reviews. This week I wanted to look at Xubuntu 10.10. I decided to do a quick look rather than a full-blown DLR review because less has changed in Xubuntu than in the other two distro releases.

		<description><![CDATA[Sabayon Linux 5.0 was released about a year ago, and I did a review of it  for Desktop Linux Reviews. Version 5.4 has just been released so I thought it was definitely worth a quick look to see what has been updated and if it's worth checking out.

Sabayon Linux is based on Gentoo. Gentoo doesn't have the most user-friendly reputation, but Sabayon Linux goes a very long way toward making Gentoo accessible to folks that want a well-configured desktop "out of the box."

		<description><![CDATA[Well it finally happened, as we all knew it would. Oracle bought Sun and promptly pissed off a lot of people with its heavy-handed ways. Anybody who has followed Oracle’s past antics shouldn’t be surprised by its behavior since acquiring OpenOffice, nor the reaction from the Open Source community which can be simply summed up as follows:

Fork You, Oracle!

		<description><![CDATA[Peppermint Ice has a new release out today, so I decided to make it the inaugural Quick Look for Eye On Linux. Peppermint Ice, if you aren't familiar with it, is a cloud-oriented distro based on Ubuntu. I did a full review of it on Desktop Linux Reviews, and also a column called War of the Peppermint Gargantuas that compared it to its sibling distro, Peppermint OS One.

		<description><![CDATA[Hi all! Welcome to the Eye On Linux blog. If you&#8217;ve found your way here, you might already be familiar with my other Linux blog; Desktop Linux Reviews. DLR is great for distro reviews, but it doesn&#8217;t work well for Linux commentary, roundups and application coverage. That&#8217;s what Eye On Linux is for, it will be a sister site to DLR. Hopefully it will give DLR readers some fun and informative reading beyond desktop distribution reviews. Thanks again for dropping by and stay tuned for EOL&#8217;s first article or two. I&#8217;ve spent this week getting everything set up, and now I can finally sit down and begin writing content. In the meantime, please do drop by Desktop Linux Reviews to read some distro reviews or drop by the Desktop Linux Reviews Forum to chat about Linux and lots of other stuff. No related posts.
