Salix Fluxbox edition development has begun

The lightweight and quite popular Fluxbox window manager gets its own Salix edition! This is the first public release of Salix Fluxbox. The collection of applications that come with this release is very similar to the one in the Xfce edition, including the Firefox web browser, the Claws-Mail emailer, the OpenOffice.org office suite, the exaile music library the Gimp image editor and more. All Salix system tools are of course also included and available through the customized Fluxbox menu. The collection of applications should not be considered final; it may, and it will most probably change until the final release. User input is mostly welcome.

Please download the iso image, test it and tell us what you think about it. Help us weed out any bugs and tell us what you think might make this even better, so we can make the final release as good as possible. You can download the installation image from our SourceForge page.

The latest development release is:

Many thanks to Kerd and ax who created the Fluxbox edition. They deserve all the credit for developing this.

Have fun!
