Description:
Shift Linux is designed to give the user an experience of
being part of the Neowin community as well as having a simple,
easy-to-use Live CD that can be installed to your hard drive, if
you enjoy the way our distribution works. Shift is a free,
GPL-based Linux distribution that can be freely distributed or
modified. There are no restrictions with Shift.
Shift Linux is a project that was created by the Neowin
community (http://www.neowin.net). Based on Morphix Linux, Shift is
Debian based, therefore it has access to all of the software and
applications as other Debian distributions.
As we developed Shift, we decided to produce different versions
of Shift for computers with lighter or more robust hardware
configurations. We have produced Shift with Fluxbox as the
predominant desktop manager, and Shift with Gnome, for heartier
machines. We will also add a version that gives the user the
opportunity continue to add different desktop managers as time goes
on.
The project team consists of members with a wide variety of
experiences and talents. Each has contributed in his / her own way.
Whether team members have worked on the distribution itself, or the
Shift website, their efforts have been dedicated to creating this
quality product.
What's New in 0.5 Stable Release:
· Shift Linux is a Linux project that was created by the
Neowin community. Based on Morphix Linux, Shift is Debian-based
live CD; therefore it has access to all of the software and
applications as other Debian distributions. Several editions of
Shift Linux have been developed to produce for computers with
lighter or more robust hardware configurations. We have produced
Shift with Fluxbox as the predominant desktop manager for lower
resource computers, and Shift with GNOME and KDE desktop managers,
for heartier machines. Shift Linux 0.5 has all of the most commonly
used packages that are available and is designed to be extremely
fast as a live CD.
What's New in 0.6pre Development Release:
· We are happy to announce that we have released a Shift
Linux pre 0.6 KDE4 version for you to try. KDE4 was just released
on the 11th, and we wanted to try this new desktop version with our
distribution. We have based this test version on Ubuntu and have
incorporated all of the latest packages. It has not been branded,
but it does contain a working installer.
· This is BETA software!, please use caution when
installing it on your system.
