Xebian is a Linux distribution with the goal to make an Xfce Debian based system that is much like Xubuntu.
Xebian most closely resembles a Debian blend, with only a thin layer for artwork and configuration that differs from Debian. No Xfce components “jump ahead” in Xebian and all packaging work is done as part of the Xfce team.
Features include:
- Uses Xfce as the desktop environment.
- Modified default configuration, inspired by Xubuntu, to give you a traditional desktop look and feel.
- With Greybird and Elementary Xfce icon theme from the Shimmer Project for Xfce integration.

What's a Linux distribution ("distro")? |
| A distro provides the user with a desktop environment, preloaded applications, and ways to update and maintain the system. Each distro makes different choices, deciding which open source projects to install and provides custom written programs. They can have different philosophies. Some distros are intended for desktop computers, some for servers without a graphical interface, and others for special uses. Because Linux is an open source operating system, combinations of software vary between Linux distros. |
