- Lubuntu 10.10 Alpha 2 Available to Download: from OMG! UBUNTU! by noreply@blogger.com (omgubuntu.co.uk)Lubuntu 10.... http://bit.ly/awX7mR
- 古いPCの延命はコスパ的には窓から投げ捨てたほうが幸せになれるのは分かっているが、、ネットで知り合った方から譲ってもらったPCだから、うーん、後5000円くらいは延命費出してもいいかな、しかしLubuntuのスクリーンセーバーでCPU100%とは、まるでSH8でVISTAの状態だ
- Installed Peppermint OS and it seems to suit me better then Lubuntu although it's approximately the same. Think I'm gonna stick with this OS

I just created an ISO of lubuntu Lucid for testing purpose. But before starting to download it, please read the following "release notes" :
* Using lxdm instead of gdm This ISO uses a not-yet-in-the-official-repository version of lxdm, thedisplay manager of LXDE instead of gdm. I would like to test the stateof it and if it's possible to include it in Lubuntu.
* Using network-manager instead of wicd This is a temporarily solution, my first tests reported that wicd doesn't work on Live-CD.
* Doesn't have utilities (manage users, network etc ...) It's a bug in gnome-system-tools (see bug 497441 [1]) which bring all GNOME packages as depends. It was temporarily removed from the seed.
* Doesn't have an installation icon See previous point, it's the same problem.
* Can't use synaptic, or any applications using gksu It's a problem in lxdm, not creating an .Xauthority file. To workaround it, you can do in a terminal "startx", which should crash but create the necessary file. It's something to fix before trying to include lxdm.
* No customization, looks like a Ubuntu CD Yes, I know. Artwork welcome :)
So, as everyone is warned, there is the link : ISO: http://people.ubuntu.com/~gilir/lubuntu-lucid-20091220.iso

Last note, this ISO was created "by-hand" (mean by using chroot/mksquashfs/mkisofs), because building with official architecture is currently blocked (space problem on the server).
Happy testing :)
