LinuxTLE project is a community Linux distribution developed in Thailand and designed for the Thai speaking audience. The early versions were based on Red Hat Linux and Fedora Core, but starting with version 8.0, the developers have chosen Ubuntu as the distribution's new base system.
The project's latest release is a beta build of LinuxTLE 8.0 (code name "Patong"), a distribution now based on Ubuntu instead of Red Hat and Fedora Core as was the case with the previous versions.
The release is a re-mastered edition of the Ubuntu 6.10 installation CD, with kernel 2.6.17.10, GNOME 2.16, Firefox 2.0, LibThai 0.1.7 (a set of Thai language support routines), updated TLEDict Thai dictionary and TLE-Center administration module, APT and Synaptic package management utilities, and the usual range of open source software packages and some proprietary kernel modules.
