If you're searching for an operating system that allows the freedom of worldwide communication; to use the same types of material produced by a worldwide community to read, write and produce art, drawings, images, music etc... better yet; to easily, quickly and safely share them all, you will now have no excuse to not give Dreamlinux 3.5 Desktop Edition a try.

Dreamlinux Desktop Edition 3.5 is a complete redesign of the distro, now supporting a totally independent architecture named Flexiboost* , based on overlaid modules.

This Flexiboost modules' feature allows the co-existence of two or more window managers (currently Gnome and Xfce) and to share the same customized appearance. Both desktop working environments share all the applications available.

Packaging the best office, image, design and multimedia OpenSource Software (OSS), Dreamlinux 3.5 Desktop Edition allows you to produce professional-quality contents.

Ruby is a true interpreted object oriented language with several of the most advanced features found in other languages and some features unique to its own implementation. Thanks to the huge success of its "Killer Application", Ruby On Rails, Ruby is experiencing an increasing popularity among developers.






Highlights

Easy, simple, fast!

You can install Dreamlinux on
hard disks already partitioned or not. You can also install a complete new GRUB boot manager, with a nice
Dreamlinux themed splashscreen or you can include the Dreamlinux load information into an existing GRUB boot manager.

Dreamlinux Installer automatically detects existing linux partitions and allows you to repartition disks prior to installation. It also allows you to install your /home dir into a separate partition, as well as almost any other dir you want. So, if, for instance, you customized Dreamlinux to a server distro you can install your /var, /usr, /usr/local, /opt, /srv, /boot, and /tmp to different partitions.

Better yet, any customizations you did during the LiveCD session will be maintained after installation.

New to this version of DLI is the possibility to install Dreamlinux to a disk, using it completely, not worrying about partitioning and the likes

USB Flash Memory

You can install Dreamlinux to a USB pen drive. You can do this while running the LiveCD
