In a nutshell, Quirky 6 is intended to be as small as possible (hence compiled from source in [[T2]]), very fast, very simple, and optimised to run on Flash memory media. There are other extended ideas that are in the pipeline. ==Goals of ""Quirky6""== ~**Completed:** ~ No [[Unionfs]]/[[Aufs]] (no layered filesystem). ~ Deployed as a USB-stick/SD-card image only. ~ Optimised for Flash, using [[f2fs]]. ~ No [[mesa]], no [[llvm]]. ~ [[Xorg]] has modesetting, vesa drivers only. ~ No [[initrd.gz]]. ~ No dbus. ~ [[GTK|GTK 2.20.1.]] ~**Outstanding:** ~ very simple replacement for [[udev]]. Using [[eudev]], without rules ~ Run [[cupsd]] only when printing. ~ Install and uninstall [[SFS]] files. ~ Simplified version upgrade (and downgrade). ~ Auditing, allowing rollback (system recovery). ~ Child-proofing. Optional, make PC hard drives invisible. ==Download== ~[[http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/quirky6/x86/quirky-6.0/ ibiblio]] ==Related Webpages== ~[[http://bkhome.org/news/?viewDetailed=00024 Quirky 6.0 announcement]] ~[[http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=90784 Quirky 6.0 feedback thread]] ~[[http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/quirky6/x86/quirky-6.0/release-Quirky-6.0.htm Detailed announcement and release notes]] ~[[http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/quirky6/x86/quirky-6.0/woof-installed-packages list of packages used in 6.0]] ---- ==Categories== CategoryPuppies
