Linux-100-Extras-Kororaa-03

After nearly five years Kororaa has hit the market with three distributions including 64 bits.

Enjoy the graphic feature and it was on of the most downloaded distribution few years ago.

Kororaa project has released a live CD demonstrating the new Xgl technology for 3D window manipulation and other unusual effects:

Today I am happy to release a Kororaa live CD showcasing Xgl technology.

If you would like to find out what it's all about, then download the CD and boot up your PC!

The Live CD comes with X.Org 7.0, GNOME 2.12.2, 3D support and of course Xgl. Supported drivers are 'nvidia' (NVIDIA) and 'fglrx' (ATI).

Minimum recommended configuration is Pentium 3 with NVIDIA GeForce video card..

After a period of hiatus Kororaa Linux, famous for being one of the first live distributions with out-of-the-box support for the Xgl technology and 3D window manipulation, has been reborn as a Fedora-based live DVD for Linux beginners. Chris Smart on the project's home page.

know that you'll be looking for something Linux related to do over your Christmas holidays and New Year, so I've just released the first installable live DVD beta for testing. The final release will be Kororaa 14 (derived from Fedora 14), code-named 'Nemo'.

As with the original Kororaa, it's based on KDE. Essentially, Kororaa has been reborn as a Fedora remix, inspired by Rahul Sundaram's Omega GNOME remix.

It aims to provide all general computing uses out of the box and it aims to include software packages that most users will want to use.
