Xubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon and eeeXubuntu



Xubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon is a stable verion of the Linux Operating System.

Xubuntu is a complete Linux operating system based on Ubuntu. The main difference between Xubuntu and Ubuntu is the fact that Xubuntu is a little lighter on system requirements and it uses Xfce as it's desktop. Xubuntu is perfect for that old computer just lying around in your basement.

For people with EeePC, there is also a designed to fit on eeePC. eeeXubuntu is a custom version of the Xubuntu 7.10 Live CD with fully-integrated hardware support, including native wireless drivers, functioning Ethernet support, tweaks for low-resolution desktop environments, and other miscellaneous fixes. Wherever possible, these changes are incorporated using custom .deb packages rather than spewing assorted files all over post-install.
