A special edition of the siduction Linux operating system featuring the Fluxbox window manager #Siduction Linux #Fluxbox desktop #Debian Linux #Siduction #Fluxbox #Debian
siduction X.Org is yet another special edition of the Debian-based and open source siduction Linux distribution, specifically designed for those of you who are desperately looking for a fast operating system with a minimal set of applications. It is built around the lightweight Fluxbox window manager.
The X.Org edition of siduction can be downloaded from the dedicated download section (see above) as two Live CD ISO images, which can be burned onto CD discs or written to USB flash drives of 1GB or higher capacity, supporting both 64-bit and 32-bit hardware platforms.
The boot menu is identical with the one found on other siduction flavors, allowing the user to start the live session with default settings or in safe graphics mode, run a memory diagnostic test using the powerful Memtest86+ utility, as well as to start an existing operating system from the first disk drive.
The user can change the language for the live environment (default is English US), add specific options to the aforementioned boot entries, use a custom timezone, change the boot source, and add extra kernel parameters.
As mentioned, the siduction X.Org operating system features no desktop environment, as it is powered only by the minimal and lightweight Fluxbox window manager, which comprises of a single panel located on the bottom edge of the screen from where users can interact with running programs and switch between virtual workspaces.
Default applications include the Zim data management software, Nano text editor, Midnight Commander twin-panel file manager, XSane image scanner, Midori web browser, HexChat, Irssi and WeeChat IRC clients, Bash, Dash and Sh shells, Aptitude package manager, Ceni network manager, and GNOME Partition Editor.
Siduction X.Org is a small and very fast operating system, which has been designed from the ground up to be used by people who are looking for a minimal Linux distribution that uses a reliable Debian GNU/Linux base.
