Sorry to bother you as I am new to DSL. I brower the DSL directory and some threads in this forum but I just can not figure out how to get the source code of DSL. Don't tell me to get the 3.4 knoppix source. I am interested to see this derivate of knoppix.

As far as I know DSL is Knoppix, but with a lot of the bulk stripped out and scripts added for DSL-specific tasks. As far as programming goes, the kernel is the same and the applications are the same...there isn't a DSL program for which to obtain sources. The programs included are the same as those found at the original authors' websites.

there is no source code for a linux distro, there is sourcecode for the kernel and for applications, look on the internet and you will find. they are not included in dsl to save space.
