Free edition 1.0 software for linux

Wolvix is a desktop oriented distribution made to fit the needs from regular to advanced desktop users.
This edition is meant to be a portable audio & video ripping/encoding and editing OS, without DRM and rootkit problems or worries. I guess you can say Sony inspired me somewhat to create this edition.
Media Edition features lots of audio and video software and it also has most of the applications you need for daily tasks: Web browser, IM client, word processor, spreadsheet, graphics manipulation tools, etc.
In this edition you will find some of the many great multimedia applications available for GNU/Linux. You get: CD rippers/encoders; audio editors; a digital audio workstation; an audio mastering program; DVD rippers/encoders; a DVD authoring program; video editors; a movie studio program; TV tuner programs; GUI front ends for portable audio devices; and of course various music and multimedia players.
In addition to the Xfce4 Desktop Environment, Media Edition features the Fluxbox Window Manager.

ToBiX is a Morphix-based Linux live CD containing a range of specialist applications for bioinformatics. With this distrubution you just boot from the CD and you have a fully functional LINUX OS distribution with open source applications.
Besides using some RAM, ToBiX doesnt touch the host computer and is ideal for presentations, workshops or other learning or scientific activity on bioinformatics and computational biology.
ToBiX comprises some of the most useful and powerful bioinformatics tools such as:
- Blast 2.0 - Basic Local Alignment Search Tool for rapid searching of nucleotide and protein databases;
- Copasi - software application for simulation and analysis of biochemical networks;
- mpiBLAST - MPI based parallel implementation of NCBI BLAST;
- SimWiz - collection of Java tools for visualization of data resulting from different kinds of biochemical simulation processes;
- Cellware - tool to model whole cell biochemical reactions;
- Gromacs - molecular dynamics simulation package;
- SBML-Editor - tool for the quick creation and edition of SBML files;
- Stocks 2 - software for simulation of biochemical processes using Maximal Time Step Method

Ch is an embeddable C/C++ interpreter for cross-platform scripting, shell programming, 2D/3D plotting, numerical computing, and embedded scripting. C/Ch/C++ allow users to use one language, anywhere and everywhere, for any programming tasks. Ch is the solution for:
- Embedded Scripting
- Enterprise
- Academic
- Plotting and Numerical Computing
C++ is C plus plus minus. Ch is C plus (Ch = C+). Ch is a C interpreter. Ch is C with classes and high-level extensions. Ch is a superset of C. Note that C++ is no longer a superset of C. For example, VLA and IEEE floating-point arithmetic in C are not supported in C++.
C is for low-level system programming and embedded systems; C++ for large-scale projects. Ch is optimal for platform-independent scripting in numerical computing and visualization, rapid application development, Web programming and plotting, embedded scripting, shell programming and integration with legacy systems.
Like C++, Ch is designed to be a superset of C, which means a C program can run in Ch without modification. Unlike C++ which is designed for serious professional programmers (elite), Ch is designed for both novice beginners with no computer experience (average Joe and John) as well as experienced programmers.

GoblinX Mini Edition is a son of GoblinX and contains only XFCE as windows manager and GTK2/GTK based applications.
The edition is indicated for those users whose want to remaster the distro and also those with difficulties to download more than three hundreds of megabytes, original size of GoblinX Main distro.
The GoblinX Mini Edition will have newer versions released faster and it will be used also for tests and for system and hardware support improvements.
The Mini Edition includes GoblinX default modules such as 01.x.base.mo, 02.x.deflibs.mo, 03.x.defX.mo, 04.x.default.mo, modules included also in master edition, and 08.x.mini.mo, which adds more applications to the edition.
The ISO image is about one hundred and fifty megabytes, but the mini edition contains an excellent source of applications and its more easy to download and also to remaster because modules are already prepared to allow a fast rebuild of the ISO file.
The ISO image has less than half size of the original GoblinX.
The edition also is been used for tests and all applications not based on QT libraries will be tested first by the mini edition, and these tests will make more stable the main distro.
Try out the mini edition, make it your small Linux LiveCD and save memory, you can also use a minicd to burn it and some other devices... If you edit or remove some applications, it can fit into a 128MB pen drive...
The Mini Edition will use the same version definition of GoblinX, so the mini edition is starting using 1.2.0 as edition version.
Enhancements:
- GoblinX Mini 2.0.0 is released. The GoblinX Mini Edition is the son of GoblinX and contains only the Xfce windows manager and GTK+-based applications. This release follows Premium 2007.1 edition and starts the second generation of the distribution. All new features and upgrades prepared for the Premium edition are included, including a new functional Magic Center which works with Xfce and all graphical user interfaces.

SLAX is a small bootable CD containing the Linux operating system. It runs Linux directly from the CD (or USB) without installing.
The Live CD described here is based on the Slackware Linux distribution and is downloadable from this website as an ISO image.
The primary goal of SLAX is to provide a wide collection of useful software while keeping the cds image small enough to be written to a 185 MB CD-R(W) medium (small 8 cm CD). SLAX boots directly from the CD or USB devices and it provides a full featured Linux operating system.
All your available partitions and data storage devices (CD-ROM, USB storage devices, etc.) should be recognized at boot and should be mounted to /mnt/xx. As an example, "disc0part1" may be assigned to the first partition on your primary hard drive, "disc1part1" for your USB storage device, or "cdrom0" for your CD-ROM drive. SLAX will never write anything to the mounted devices. Mounting is safe and does not change the data.
After booting, you should be able to login as a "root", with the password "toor"; both without quotes, of course :)
When logged in, you have many options. At the shell prompt, you may start Midnight Commander (type "mc" to the console), play some music from your hard drive (type "play /mnt/path/file.mp3"), adjust your audio volume (type "alsamixer"), configure IP address (type "netconfig") or browse web pages with the text-based browser (type "lynx http://url").
To start the graphical environment included with SLAX, type "gui" (for graphical user interface). It will attempt to autoconfigure your graphics card, monitor, keyboard and mice, and if successful it will run an X session with KDE. Im pretty sure that you will know how to get around at this point. :-) Use "guisafe" instead of "gui" for safe-mode (VESA framebuffer) without autodetection.
In the unfortunate case your mouse doesnt work, try to move it for a few seconds to see if it will be autodetected. If it isnt, shut down Xwindow (press Ctrl+Alt+Backspace) and start it again. If this wont help then you are using something I have not included in the autoconfiguration process (COM2 mouse?). If you are comfortable with bash, or you atleast understand how to make your favorite mouse function under Linux, try to modify the symbolic link /dev/mouse manually.
If you dont like the autoconfigured screen resolution, refresh rate, or the K Desktop Environment, start "gui" with some additional options. Try for example "gui 800x600 60", where 800x600 is the desired screen resolution and 60 is the desired refresh rate. Fluxbox is one of the other window managers included and may be called with "guifast" or "gui fluxbox". In any event, type "gui --help" for more information.
All scripts and source code are available and can be used to build your own Live CD.
SLAX is available as an ISO image of the CD. It fits on small 8cm CD-R(W). Burn it with your favorite cd-writing software and then boot from the CD.
You might want to check your BIOS to assure its set to boot the CD prior the disc.
Enhancements:
- added KDE 3.5.4 with Slackware 11 fixes for media:/ URL in konqueror
- probeusb parameter now sleeps delay_use+1 seconds to wait for USB devices
- (this usually defaults to 6 seconds)
- fixed fuse libraries, which were missing in rc1 version
- added newest NTFS-3g beta version, NTFS writing now works, I hope
