Grafpup in Linux-User News
german print-magazine http://www.linux-user.de/ has a small announcement on the news-page (just the print-edition, not online).
1st News-article, 1/3 of a Dia-A4-page, with screenshot.
It mentiones the modules for KDE and OpenOffice2, too
Unfortunately I have no scanner.
Some words:
Grafics Toolbox
Nathan Fisher... Live-Distro...basically tools for Grafics... based on Puppylinux , 72 MB, Icewm ... Gimp Inkscape Cinepaint...Scribus... Graveman...
Runs completely in RAM, so all apps are extremely fast.
From Puppy it inherited to postinstall packages from the "Puppy-Fundus".
Congrats to Nathan from me

Nathan has a great distribution that compliments PuppyCongrats to Nathan from me Very Happy

Supporting Nathan is a great way to BEGIN your new Linux adventure

With Grafpup (http://grafpup.com) Nathan Fisher placed a Live distribution together, which contains above all tools for working on diagrams. The system be based on Puppy Linux (http://www.puppylinux.org) and is only 72 MByte largely. As Windowmanager Icewm is used. With the programs the slim distribution the most important ranges covers Gimp for pixel diagrams, Inkscape for Vectorzeichnungen, Cinepaint for animations and Scribus as DTP program. For burning CDs and DVDs it offers the program Graveman. Since the system copies itself from the start when desired completely into the main memory, also larger programs start such as Scribus very fast. From Puppy Grafpup inherits the ability to after-install finished packed program modules. Completely new modules contain a current KDE and OpenOffice 2. After an installation on the non removable disk the Moeglickeit exists to extend the system with software from the rich selection from Puppy to.

the Linux kernel is big, monolithic, and has many of the device drivers built in ... if a built in driver crashes, it tends to cause the whole system to crash
the Minix kernel is small and has most drivers added as external modules ... if a driver crashes, the rest of the system tends to keep running

The proof of this is that he messed the design up. MINIX is a nice, modular microkernel system, with the memory manager and file system running as user-space processes. This makes the system cleaner and more reliable than a big monolithic kernel and easier to debug and maintain, at a small price in performance
My only regret is that he didn't develop Linux based on the microkernel technology of MINIX. With all the security problems Windows has now, it is increasingly obvious to everyone that tiny microkernels, like that of MINIX, are a better base for operating systems than huge monolithic systems
haha...sometimes those software translators aren't 100% in the translation. Someone posted a better translation (or at least one that makes sense in English) on the Grafpup board.
