GoblinX is a bootable live CD distribution based on Slackware
Linux.
The primary goal for GoblinX is to create a more pleasant and
functional desktop, standardising all icons and themes to make it easy
for novice users to learn about available applications.
The GoblinX is available in three
different live CD varieties: the common live CD, GoblinX Standard, a
smaller edition called GoblinX Mini and a professional edition, GoblinX
Premium. Support is included for 5 languages: French,
Portugese,
Spanish, German and English. It also features a modular
system,
enabling applications to be added to the live CD.
The Premium Edition contains languages,
libraries, files and applications used to compile other programs from
source code, contains several more applications to everyday use and
games for your entertainment, also contains more drivers and
packages
needed to improve hardware support, like sane, gimp-print, hpjis,
ndiswrapper, slmodem and more.
