Best Linux Name Change |
|
Best Linux - name change and product release. There can be many reasons to change a product name, but this is one of those more entertaining reasons given by the Finland-based Linux distributor: "Changing the name back to good old SOT Linux is now possible, as Sweden is no longer our primary market focus. Several years ago we were obliged to change the name from SOT Linux, because the word 'sot' means 'disease' or 'soot' in Swedish, neither of which were considered desirable by our marketing department." The new release, SOT Linux 2002, comes in two editions, desktop and server - the desktop edition's ISO images are provided as free downloads: SOTL_2002_DESKTOP.iso (627MB). You can also get the retail version for €79 (US$70) which includes documentation and support - visit the distribution's webshop to order. Our Best/SOT Linux page has been updated and promptly renamed.

Tribblix
Tribblix is a general-purpose operating system derived from OpenSolaris, OpenIndiana and illumos. The base kernel and commands come from illumos, with everything else rebuilt from scratch. It is a traditional system where software is distributed as SVR4 packages and lightweight window managers are preferred over heavy desktop environments. Xfce is the primary desktop option, with MATE, Enlightenment and various window managers also available for installation. While Tribblix inherits many of the key illumos technologies, such as ZFS, zones, DTrace and SMF, it uses its own build and packaging system.
Status: Active
