paldo GNU/Linux Review by
4.0/5

paldo stands for “pure adaptable Linux distribution" and it’s an open source Linux kernel-based operating system built around the modern GNOME graphical desktop environment, using the controversial GNOME Shell interface.

The distribution can be downloaded from its official website or via Softpedia as two Live DVD ISO images, one for each of the supported hardware platforms (32-bit and 64-bit). The users must write the ISO images to DVD discs or USB thumb drives in order to boot them from the BIOS of a computer.

The Live DVDs come with no bootloader, which means that when the users boots them from the BIOS of a PC, using either a DVD disc or a USB flash drive, it will boot straight into the GNOME desktop environment. No login screen is implemented and no default password for the paldo user.

Apparently, the desktop environment implemented in the paldo Live CD has not been altered in any way, form or shape, providing users with a pure GNOME 3 desktop experience. It uses the default artwork and comprised of a panel located on the upper part of the screen, from where you can launch applications, interact with opened windows or cycle between virtual workspaces.

The distribution comes pre-loaded with several GNOME-specific apps, including the Gnote note-taking program, Empathy multi-protocol instant messenger client, Evolution email and calendar client, Gedit text editor, Cheese webcam viewer, Brasero CD/DVD burning software, Rhythmbox music player, Totem video player, XChat IRC client, Epiphany web browser, as well as Orca screen reader and magnifier.

The GNOME Contacts, Terminal, Screenshot, Calculator and Clocks utilties, Nautilus (Files) file manager, Disks disk manager, Baobab disk usage analyzer, XSane image scanner, Evince document viewer, File-Roller archive manager and gThumb image viewer are also installed
