Ignalum Linux
Ignalum was located in Markham, Ontario, Canada. The privately held company was founded in the year 2002 with a vision of creating a cost-effective, installation-friendly, complete Linux-based operating environment offering full Windows compatibility. Ignalum Linux was a complete, Red Hat and RPM-based operating system optimized for the i686-class processors. It contains an easy to use installation program, extensive online documentation, and a menu-driven package system. A full installation gives you the X Window System, C/C++ development environments, Perl, networking utilities, a mail server, a news server, a web server, an ftp server, the GNU Image Manipulation Program, OpenOffice Suite, Netscape Communicator, plus many more programs. Ignalum Linux can run on any P6-class and higher processors (but uses -march=i686 -O2 optimization for best performance on i686-class machines like the P3, P4, and Duron/Athlon).

NEW • Development Release: Bodhi Linux 4.0.0 Alpha |
Rate this project
|
Jeff Hoogland has announced the availability of the initial alpha build of Bodhi Linux 4.0.0, an upcoming major release of the Ubuntu-based distribution featuring a modified variant of the Enlightenment desktop called Moksha. This alpha build is available for 64-bit computers only: "Not only is our first 4.0.0 alpha release here, but it is here relatively on schedule. If all goes according to plan we will have something stamped as stable before September hits. I would just like to be clear that this is far from a polished or finished product. This release has the following known issues: no bootsplash; the installer brings up a password prompt, just click OK to continue; some extra menu entries are present, feel free to manually remove them; many others I have yet to find. This release is also only coming in 64-bit flavoring. The final Bodhi 4.0.0 release will include 32-bit and non-PAE releases still. Hopefully, with the beta release early next month I will have these other variations put together." Read the release announcement for further information. The Bodhi Linux 4.0.0 alpha live DVD image is available for download from SourceForge: bodhi-4.0.0-64-alpha.iso (674MB, SHA256, pkglist). |

Distribution Release: Bodhi Linux 6.0.0 |
|
Bodhi Linux is an Ubuntu-based distribution which combined Ubuntu's long-term support (LTS) release with the Moksha desktop, which is a fork of the Enlightenment user interface. "Today the Bodhi Team is pleased to announce the release of Bodhi Linux 6.0. Bodhi 6.0 is built on the Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS (Focal Fossa) base. Our Arc-Green theme underwent a major revamp now featuring an animated background, updated splash screen, and numerous tweaks. The BL6 login screen now features the elegant slick greeter. Naturally, there also is a new Plymouth theme. The Moksha desktop environment has had numerous improvements and a few new features added. In addition to all this, the Bodhi Team has tried to improve support for non-English languages. As a result, we now install by default the gnome language tool. None of this would have been possible without the support of the Bodhi community and the volunteer work of our small group of translators." Further information can be found in the project's release announcement. Download (pkglist): bodhi-6.0.0-64.iso (832MB, MD5, torrent), (837MB, MD5, torrent), (1,606MB, MD5, torrent). |

Distribution Release: Bodhi Linux 5.1.0 |
|
Bodhi Linux is a lightweight, Ubuntu-based distribution featuring the Moksha desktop environment. The new version, 5.1.0, is the first release under the project's new management. "Today I am pleased to announce the release of Bodhi Linux 5.1.0. This is my first official release and is somewhat delayed from our original plans. Hopefully, this delay is worth it to our users. Much thanks to Stefan 'the waiter' Uram for his work on both the code and the themes and icons - Bodhi would not be the same without his creative input. In addition, it features several breaks with Bodhi tradition. In addition to replacing epad with Leafpad, Midori with Epiphany and ditching eepDater, we now offer two 64-bit ISO images and a revamped AppPack ISO image. If you are unsure which version is best for you, please see this wiki page explaining the differences between them." See the full release announcement for more information and a video trailer.

Jeff Hoogland has announced the release of Bodhi Linux 5.0.0. Bodhi Linux is a lightweight Ubuntu-based distribution featuring Moksha, an Enlightenment 17-based desktop environment. The project takes a decidedly minimalist approach by offering modularity, high levels of customisation, and choice of themes. "Today I am very pleased to share the hard work of the Bodhi Team which has resulted in our fifth major release. It has been quite the journey since our first stable release a little over seven years ago and I am happy with the progress this projected has made in that time. For those looking for a lengthy change log between the 4.5.0 release and 5.0.0, you will not find one. We have been happy with what the Moksha desktop has provided for some time now. This new major release simply serves to bring a modern look and updated Ubuntu core (18.04) to the lightning fast desktop you have come to expect from Bodhi Linux." Information on the new version can be found in the project's release announcement. The distribution is available in three editions: Standard, Legacy (for older, 32-bit computers), and AppPack which includes more software on the installation media.

Development Release: Bodhi Linux 5.0.0 RC |
|
Jeff Hoogland has announced the availability of the release candidate for Bodhi Linux 5.0.0, an upcoming major new version of the Ubuntu-based distribution that features the Enlightenment-based Moksha desktop environment: "Today I am very pleased to share the hard work of the Bodhi team with our latest 5.0.0 pre-release disc which we are tagging as a 'release candidate'. These disc images have no major issues that our team has been made aware of and will likely be fairly close to the images we will tag as a stable release later this quarter. Past providing our rock solid Moksha desktop on an Ubuntu 18.04 base, these disc images are the first to feature our fresh new look which is a modified version of the popular 'Arc Dark' theme colorized in Bodhi green. Also included are a fresh default wallpaper, login screen and splash scenes as your system starts up. You should note that we still do not have an 'AppPack' release for our 5.0.0 series yet. This will be included with our second release candidate (if needed) as well as the final stable release." Read the rest of the release announcement for more information and screenshots.

Development Release: Bodhi Linux 5.0.0 Alpha 1 |
|
Jeff Hoogland has announced an early development snapshot of Bodhi Linux 5.0.0. The new alpha release is based on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and runs the Moksha desktop environment, which is a fork of Enlightenment. "Some highlights about these 5.0.0 ISO images: Ubuntu 18.04 base; Moksha 0.3.0 testing release; 32-bit and non-PAE support with 4.9 kernel in Legacy ISO image. Please note the focus of these ISO images was simply getting Moksha up and running on the Ubuntu 18.04. I have yet to clean out the ISO images of excess clutter or ensure that everything we expect to deliver a full Bodhi experience is present. We hope these discs will help serve as a testing ground for some of the changes we have been back porting for Moksha before we tag a 0.3.0 release of the desktop. Because we are a project driven 100% by volunteers, there are no strict time lines for how the release cycle for 5.0.0 will fully pan out. Keep your eye on this page for updates as we get time to work on things. Also keep in mind that any future releases towards 5.0.0 you will be able to upgrade to via your package manager so installing early is fine so long as you don’t mind the occasional issue here and there." Additional information and a screen shot can be found in the project's release announcement. Download (MD5) (pkglist): bodhi-5.0.0-64-alpha.iso (719MB), bodhi-5.0.0-legacy-alpha.iso (766MB). |

Bodhi ships with the Moksha desktop (a fork of Enlightenment) and is available in three flavours: Standard, AppPack (offering more applications) and Legacy (for older computers). The project's release announcement reads: "Today I am pleased to announce the release of Bodhi Linux 4.3.0. This is a normal update release and it comes three months after the release of Bodhi 4.2.0. Existing Bodhi 4.x.y users do not need to reinstall as the primary goal of this update release is to simply keep the current ISO image up to date. This release image includes EFL 1.19.1, Terminology 1.1.0, Ephoto 1.5, and Linux kernel 4.11. As with every release in the 4.x.y Bodhi series it is built on top of the rock solid foundation that is Ubuntu 16.04."

Distribution Release: Bodhi Linux 4.2.0 |
|
Jeff Hoogland has announced the release of Bodhi Linux 4.2.0. Bodhi Linux is an Ubuntu-based distribution featuring a fork of the Enlightenment desktop called Moksha. The new version is a minor update to Bodhi Linux and existing users of 4.1.0 will not need to upgrade via new installation media. One of the important changes in 4.2.0 is the dropping of the 32-bit PAE-enabled installation media. Older, 32-bit computers are still supported through Bodhi's Legacy edition: "This is the first release in which we are dropping our 32-bit PAE discs. I would like to clarify that we are still supporting 32-bit computers, but if you need to install the 32-bit version of Bodhi Linux the only version we are preparing is our Legacy ISO image. The Legacy image will work on PAE and non-PAE 32-bit hardware alike. If your computer needs a PAE kernel to utilize all of its memory it is likely better for you to be using a 64-bit operating system anyways. If you do feel the need to use a PAE kernel on a 32-bit operating system with Bodhi though, you can always install the Legacy release and then change kernels afterwards. The release announcement has further details. Download (pkglist): bodhi-4.2.0-64.iso (711MB, MD5, torrent), bodhi-4.2.0-apppack-64.iso (1,293MB, MD5, torrent), bodhi-4.2.0-legacy.iso (663MB, MD5, torrent). |
