Lycoris Linux at ExtremeTech

Posted by Hemos on from the looking-closely-at-it dept.

Eugenia writes "Most of you probably remember Redmond Linux, the user-friendly distro that tried to duplicate the familiar WindowsXP UI feel under Linux. Well, there is no more Redmond Linux. The company recently renamed the product "Lycoris Desktop/LX". ExtremeTech features today a very favorable review of the distro, includes screenshots and information on the installation, network setup, desktop environment etc."

  1. Re:Q for window manager folks... by FPhlyer · · Score: 5, Informative

    Why doesn't someone make a window manager that's pixel-per-pixel compatible with Windows?

    Someone tried. The project is "Qvwm". I don't know if it is actively maintained, as I can't hit the website. Try getting more information here: http://www.icewalk.com/softlib/app/app_00661.html
