Dax OS Life For Linux

Dax OS Life is an easy-to-use Linux distribution that includes a modern and familiar graphical desktop interface adapted for the elders of the house, facilitating their access to new computer technologies. It is based on the Ubuntu and Debian operating system and built around the Enlightenment desktop environment.

The Life edition of Dax OS is distributed as a dual-arch Live DVD that will run on either 32-bit (i386) or 64-bit (x86_64) hardware platforms. The ISO image has approximately 1GB in size and must be written to either a DVD disc or a USB flash drive of 1GB or higher capacity.

From the boot menu, the user will be able to start the live environment with default boot options or in safe graphics mode, start the graphical installer to permanently install the distribution on his or her computer, as well as to boot an existing operating system that is currently installed on the first disk drive or perform a system memory (RAM) test.

First of all, we remind everyone that the default language of this Linux-based operating system is Spanish. The desktop environment of Dax OS Life is way too simple and clean, powered by Enlightenment. To launch applications, one must left click anywhere on the desktop and navigate the main menu to the respective category of applications.

Default applications include the Pidgin multi-protocol instant messenger, Mozilla Firefox web browser, Transmission torrent downloader, AbiWord word processor, Gnumeric spreadsheet editor, GIMP image editor, Decibel audio player, Brasero CD/DVD burning software and Parole media player.

With Dax OS Life, elders will be able to easily browse the Internet, view photos, play videos and listen to songs, while enjoying a modern, fast and  lightweight Linux system that uses a simple and clean Enlightenment desktop environment on top of a stable Debian/Ubuntu base.
