[fsug-tvm] Re: Multiple D.E's
check this out http://hightechsorcery.com/2008/10/evaluating-desktop-environments-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex The most popular ones are Gnome (Ubuntu) - default install KDE (Ubuntu) XFCE (Xubuntu) LXDE - http://www.ubuntugeek.com/lxde-lightweight-x11-desktop-environment-for-ubuntu.html Then there are couple of desktops which are themed based on the user audience ( http://www.linuxhaxor.net/2008/05/07/installing-four-other-desktop-edition-on-ubuntu/ ) Edubuntu - is based on both gnome and K desktop environment, but it’s designed for young users. Edubuntu also provides three different theme setups, ‘young’, for younger users, ‘plain’ for a clean desktop setup, and ‘default’, which is a general purpose theme setup. Gobuntu - strictly follows Free Software Foundation’s four freedoms. Which means there will be no firmware, drivers, applications, or content included in Gobuntu that does not include the full source or whose license does not provide the right to use, study, modify, and redistribute the body of work. Then the less known ones like Looking Glass - http://www.debianadmin.com/install-sun-looking-glass-desktop-environment-in-ubuntu.html gOS - http://www.thinkgos.com/index.html fluxbuntu - http://fluxbuntu.org/ (no recent releases) HTH - Nikhil On Mon, Mar 30, 2009 at 3:30 PM, BINNY THOMAS binn...@gmail.com wrote: Thanks a lot.

I have updated the Wiki - check it out and add to it - I think we should have some section where the basics of binary number system can be taught - it will give the students a better idea of how computers work...

Thomas Mani sir took this initiative to switch over and he told that, he could talk more about it after the schools closed for this year academic break. A few days back, he contacted us and gave us the IT books they are currently using. And asked if we could do a syllabus for at least for three class primarily? We have one and a half months time. Though its a small period of time, I hope we can do it with everyone's contribution. -- -- Regards, Prasad.S.R Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes. -- CHE --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ Freedom is the only law.
