Electronic Linux Professional Licentiate in Linux (Elplx-2.0) is a very good distribution sitting in the archives and gathering dust in the shelves like books written in English in our universities (nobody to read them).
I was extremely disappointed that it is relegated to archives.
I downloaded it from Distromania archives.
It is a very good distribution not one actually two in one CD.
It has Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (long term support) as default Live as well as install.
It also has Fedora 9 KDE (I gave it up at core 3) Live and Install which is pretty good.
Both connects readily to the internet and elplcs (German and English).
Its lessons are pretty good for a newbie.
This distribution should wipe its dust and come out of the shelf sooner than late.
I was hesitant to download the 1.4 GB thinking that I will get an old (not live) installable CD and my decision to have a go after 100 was a gutsy attempt (I am getting bit fed up with Linux now) and my gut feeling were culinary satisfied.
There is another worthwhile point there which I gathered, like the CD / DVD of the Linux Bible from Christopher Naegus bundling number of Live and Installable CD versions in a DVD saves lot of time for us Sri-Lankans who has to spend over 24 hours to download one DVD.
Very few will go abroad like me and download a few to bring home on a holiday abroad.
This DVD with two distributions well tested, I recommend without any hesitation and I believe it should come out of the shelf (shelf life of of Linux is changing very fast) sooner than late.
