Pinguy OS Description

An Ubuntu fork Pinguy OS is a Linux operating system based on the popular Ubuntu 10.04 OS.Developer commentsUbuntu maybe easy to use but not all of the programs for it are, so all I did was listen to what people wanted and found the most user friendly programs for the task.Like Shotwell’s really easy for uploading images to facebook and gtkpod is great for putting music, photos and video on a ipod/iphone and you can use mvPod to covert the video.The system was built to have eye candy (CoverGloobus, Gloobus Preview, GNOME Do, Docky) and for every part of it to be user-friendly, I even changed every file type to open with the right program, like for some reason by default .iso are opened with Archive Manager so I changed that to Brasero Disc Burner.All this Distro is, is a custom built Ubuntu 10.04 LTS that can run as a Live DVD or be installed, it has all the added packages needed for video, music and web content .eg flash and java, plus I have done a few fixes as well. like fixing wireless problems, gwibber's facebook problem and flash videos in fullscreen.Everything is setup for samba, all you need to do is right click a folder you want to share and add a password in samba using system-config-samba. I have also added a Upnp server so you can share your music, video’s .ect with a PS3, XBOX 360 or any other Upnp media reader.Nautilus has been changed for Elementary-Nautilus with added plugins so it can get music and video art from the web.The default theme is Elementary using ttf-droid font with Docky and a custom Conky.
