    Pearl Linux 1.5 64 bit

    Pearl Linux 1.5 64 bit

    Mac OSX Style Linux Desktop with Webmin managed Server

    Pearl Linux 1.5 64 bit has been fine tuned since our first release of Pearl 1.0 on this our first 64 bit version. The changes were made to hopefully add a quicker experience. Opera is now the default browser but we also added Seamonkey and Firefox as many requested. The new WPS is our default office suite. A very close alternative to Microsoft Office Suite. As with Pearl Linux 32bit their are two usable window managers. The default Xfce manager Xfwm as well as Compiz. We changed the Xfwm / Compiz switcher a bit as well as added a very handy short easy to understand QuickTips document (located in the Documents directory in the users home directory). This document may help the "runaway desktop" that compiz could have on most folks that are not above average Linux users when fine tuning your compiz settings. Please see README file for the updates made to the latest release of Pearl Linux 1.5 Alternative. Use "custom" as user name hit enter Leave password blank and hit enter.

    mintyMac minny

    mintyMac minny

    The fastest booting Mac OS X like LXDE Live CD distro around

    A 32 bit OS Designed to actually be run from your USB drive. Not the usual quick booting system that can't do a thing once you boot quickly into it but one thats got everything you need to get on the Internet on any computer connected to it. The Chromium browser is ready to go out of the box without downloading a thing including the flash plugin ...etc... ready to go meaning after the average LIVE boot time of 1 min. 10 sec. your mintyMac OS is surfing the net, creating graphics with gimp, preforming system admin with gparted, listening to your tunes with Banshee, web camming with Cheese, even network monitoring with Etherape. If you choose to install instead after using the LIVE option the average install time is between 15-25 minutes. Built on a Gateway Netbook (LT-10) tested on Gateway mini towerr dc9600. pav.6300, and an old AMD motherboard system we had laying around.

    Pearl Linux Surf

    Pearl Linux Surf

    Quick booting OS Built for live usb web browsing

    Pearl Surf was designed to run from a usb thumb drive made the the Ubuntu USB-Creator. We included all you need to start browsing with Chromium and Thunderbird for an email client. Also included for added multimedia functions is Clementine, Banshee and totem. I decided that I was not looking to have the fastest loading live OS as from what I see is all anyone is concerned about, but to acually take a full minute maybe even 1.5 to load and have a decent OS to work with. It loads very fast on many types of systems we check our systems on from net books to all brands of desktops. This is also a great system for you to add software of your choosing for your own custom built system. Ubuntu Software Center is installed for you to add to this lightweight release of Pearl. Java and Flash support built in.

    GRUB4USB

    GRUB4USB

    GRAND UNIFIED BOOT LOADER FOR USB

    FOR WINDOWS USERS WHO WANT TO JUMP TO LINUX EASILY/PAINLESSLY WITH A FAST BOOTING USB FLASH DRIVE. LATEST VERSION AT www.grub4usb.com A simplified "FAMILY TREE"/"Ancestor" perspective: www.grub4usb.com for more. Introduction (from http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/) GRANDPA: GRUB is a Multiboot boot loader. It was derived from GRUB, the GRand Unified Bootloader, originally by Erich Stefan Boleyn. DAD: GRUB4DOS made it easier for Windows/DOS users, but was still unreliable; the boot record was difficult to install for average users. GRUB4USB was developed to automate the installation of the correct 446 bytes to the boot sector, providing Windows Users with a bootable USB Flash Drive which could contain any flavor of Linux (or other OS). IDIOT PROOF: GRUB4USB is "AUTOMATIC AND HANDS FREE". Simply insert USB Flash Drives, they're detected, the boot record is installed with a Linux distribution to quickly create functional, bootable USB Flash Drives; aka LIVE USB.
