Site News :: DSL 1.3 is out!



I finally got enough free time to burn DSL 1.3 and check it out.

Nice job guys!

The icon manager is great and makes extension loading look very professional.

Aterm looks great.

cdw looks like a nice usable cd burning application. It's kinda cool that it uses sqlite for the database interface.

FYI, the "CD Burn App" rxvt window title still says "Bash Burn" instead of "CDW"

Also the new theme looks very sharp.

I like dark themes like bizcard and tree & moon on most of my computers.  However, on some of them the display monitor is very dim and dark themes are hard to use so Lawn or Minimal were required.

This theme definately brightens up the old CRT.

Once again, great job!

New DSL, sweet!
btw, looking on Distrowatch on the distro page hit rankings for 6 month timespan, DSL just climbed up another notch to 9th most popular distro on the planet!   (:

So there's an odd thing..... I can now boot an isolinux
cd on my ancient-but-still-very-usefull Thinkpad laptop.
Maybe it was a cd-drive issue...
After cursing all things Aterm, and rebuilding a freshly
made Ckermit.dsl, some advantages are begining to dawn
on me.
That must have been a lot of work to intruduce Aterm to the
existing distro, and all the other features, thanks to all involved.

:)

Had some trouble moving from 1.2.1 to 1.3, no doubt because of my own inexperience, so I did a clean frugal install. Been using it and everything is looking good. I cant imagine everything it took to do this, thanks for all the hard work.
