Debris Linux 2.0 is package compatible with Ubuntu 8.04 'Hardy Heron' - you can use all packages for this release from the Ubuntu repositories, except for those depending on the Ubuntu kernel! Changes since RC1: fixed the clipboard issue; new feature - build-fstab will also update the swap partition's UUID used for hibernation resume; updated Firefox 3.0.15; Ubuntu security updates. Debris Linux 2.0 will provide security updates until April 2011."

• 2009-11-29: Distribution Release: Debris Linux 2.0
• 2009-06-20: Development Release: Debris Linux 1.8.2 (Beta)

Debris Linux gives you a simple, pleasing, but fully functional desktop with all applications necessary to get work done online and offline. It's intended to be fully usable as a LiveCD, but a lot of work also went into the installer which should make it easy for just about everyone to put it on the hard drive, either on its own partition or by using the complete disk. Apart from providing speed and efficiency, Debris Linux should be suitable for the "average" user who wants to just use a computer.

Debris Linux 2.0 is package compatible with Ubuntu Hardy Heron (8.04) - you can use all packages for this release from the Ubuntu repositories, except for those depending on the Ubuntu kernel!
