Linux Update-2018-10-10

Linux Update

Since I am going on digital hibernation due to no known reason (I do not fear religion, politics and for that matter science and coding free software from Linux base) here is an update on the latest distributions I tested.

1. Reborn Linux is good for my taste.

2. EOS or the Endless Os has enormous resources and won’t let you boot other distributions (I believe no GRUB)

3. Swift Linux is excellent and is based on MX or Mephis.

4. Elive has excellent desktop effects but lacks in many utilities.

5. Steam OS is for games

6. Sparky Linux on a USB stick is my favorite game collection of Linux.

7. MX Linux is good with lovely collection of packages but I prefer Swift Linux.

8. Crunchbank plus plus, one need to type startx on terminal to get graphic interface of xFce but lacks even Abiword.

9.Easy Peasy has gone dormant but my old DVD still works on 64 bits computer.

10. Rescue Linux won’t help me to boot a laptop with UEFI interface which blocks USB booting but I found a way to mount a DVD and erase Microsoft for good.

11.Tails on a USB is fabulous not Kali Linux.

12. I do not have a DVD with Kali Linux, why with so many (over 400 mostly in 32 bit in my attic)

13. Hardened BSD only on terminal and no graphic interface.

14. Emmabuntus Debian version is fabulous with more utilities than I need.

15.Partition magic (old CD version) one has to buy but why BUY with gParted in all Linux distribution, which is my first choice.

16. Joli Os is dormant.

17. Osgeo is my map tracker

18. Team OS is deadly and takes over your computer (it did and erased my SSD)

19. But my favorite is Debian with many desktops.

20. But I love Puppy Linux 64 bits (beaver the latest) and Knoppix on Top of the ladder or Toppix.

21. I am sorry for the rest (my memory is failing) of the Linux distribution including TriSequel.

Please visit www.distrowatch.com it has an excellent collection (100), some listed above is missing there, that is why this brief introduction of all the vagaries of Linux.

Thanks guys and girls of the Linux community, both in this country and abroad.

KIT, Keep It Up!
