Carlos Morimoto
Carlos Eduardo Morimoto is the author of Kurumin, a Linux distribution based on Knoppix. It was the most popular Linux distribution in Brazil. After almost ending the project, due to many complaints from users in his forums and technical problems, mostly caused by the fact that Kurumin was based on Debian unstable, which is not targeted to non-experienced users, and was the majority of Kurumin users, Morimoto improved it and it reached its success. In 2008, Morimoto abandoned the project due to personal reasons. A new group of developers attempted to continue the project, now called "Kurumin NG", and based in Kubuntu, when Leandro Santos, the developer of Kalango Linux (another distro based in Kurumin) joined efforts with Morimoto to develop the new version of Kurumin. But this new effort was short-lived and was shut down some time later. He is also the author of several books about hardware and software, especially Linux, all published in Brazil Brazil ( pt, Brasil; ), off ...

Kurumin
Kurumin Linux was a Live CD operating system based on Debian. Its main features are the advanced hardware auto-detection (inherited from Knoppix) and a Portuguese user interface, and its main goal is ease of use. As of release 7.0, the size of the disk image is approximately 603 MB. Version NG 8.06, based on Ubuntu 8.04, was released June 24, 2008, and was discontinued on January 29, 2009. Name origin and history The name comes from the Tupi word ''"curumim"'', which means boy. The usage of the letter K, instead of the usual Portuguese spelling (''"curumi"'' or ''"curumim"''), brings it in line with KDE (Kurumin's default desktop environment), as well as with Knoppix. In late 2007, Morimoto said, that the project would be halted or have its scope reduced. In November 2008, the project was officially discontinued. Features The distribution sports an open-source control center named ''ClicaAki'' (roughly: "ClickHere"). It features a series of shell scripts, Kommander-based ...

Linux Distribution
A Linux distribution (often abbreviated as distro) is an operating system made from a software collection that includes the Linux kernel and, often, a package management system. Linux users usually obtain their operating system by downloading one of the Linux distributions, which are available for a wide variety of systems ranging from embedded devices (for example, OpenWrt) and personal computers (for example, Linux Mint) to powerful supercomputers (for example, Rocks Cluster Distribution). A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software, documentation, a window system (the most common being the X Window System, or, more recently, Wayland), a window manager, and a desktop environment. Most of the included software is free and open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, allowing modifications to the original software. Usually, Linux distributions optionally include some proprietary so ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Knoppix
KNOPPIX ( ) is an operating system based on Debian designed to be run directly from a CD / DVD (Live CD) or a USB flash drive (Live USB), one of the first live operating system distributions (just after Yggdrasil Linux). Knoppix was developed by, and named after, Linux consultant Klaus Knopper. When starting a program, it is loaded from the removable medium and decompressed into a RAM drive. The decompression is transparent and on-the-fly. Although KNOPPIX is primarily designed to be used as a Live CD, it can also be installed on a hard disk like a typical operating system. Computers that support booting from USB devices can load KNOPPIX from a live USB flash drive or memory card. There are two main editions: the traditional compact-disc (700 megabytes) edition and the DVD (4.7 gigabytes) "Maxi" edition. The CD edition had not been updated since June 2013 until recently. As of version 9.1, CD images are being released once again. Each main edition has two language-specific edi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
