FreeSBIE 2.0.1

ReplyFreeSBIEFebruary 12th, 2007Andrew

I downloaded the new FreeSBIE 2.0.1 release. It is very nice. The only thing I would have liked extra is to have Xfce start automatically from boot rather than to have to type in startx. People new to Unix like systems could find this difficult as the command is explained after the screenshots in the documentation. On the other hand it could mean more people read the release notes and find out how to do more with it.

I would encourage everyone who uses Linux to download the CD image and try it out. You may find you like it.

    We chose not to start X.org at boottime by default because FreeSBIE is not only meant for desktops but for administration and testing purposes too. As you said, the release notes explain how to start X at boottime and they were meant to be read ;)

    Thanks for having tried FreeSBIE! :)
