LinuxConsole 1.0.2009 Released

Today we saw the latest distro release of LinuxConsole, a basic, independently developed Linux distribution that focuses on games and multimedia support. I found the default LinuxConsole 1.0.2009 live CD to have a very plain feel and setup. All versions featured limited applications in my opinion although the selection was different for each. Well known features of the Live CD version include Gnome, Cups printing, Gimp, gcompris, foobillard, and frozen bubble.

The LinuxConsole 1.0.2009 Live DVD includes everything from the CD, ATICatalyst 9.9, Nvidia 185.18.36, VirtualBox 3.0.6, PlayOnLinux, some interesting 3D gaming options and more.

The LinuxConsole 1.0.2009 Multimedia version is also available and is geared for computers slim on hardware specs. LinuxConsole Miltimedia requires “256Mb only needed for programs, system and data” as stated in the LinuxConsole 1.0.2009 release notes.

If you like the idea but want to create something a little different, check out the LinuxConsole Jukebox. Build your own custom .iso file that includes the modules you want.
