easys bietet Ihnen individuell an Ihre Umgebung angepasste Linux Lösungen und hebt sich so von der Vielzahl von Unternehmen der IT Branche ab. Unser Ziel ist es properitäre Software die oft instabil oder sicherheitsanfällig ist durch offen zugängliche und freie Standardsoftware zu ersetzen
For the first time the new installation and the administration framework for Linux - ALICE („Advanced Linux Installation and Cofiguration Environment“) - is introduced to the public. Both tools have been created in close co-operation with the DARKSTAR Linux and the easys developer team. Due to ALICE now novices and advanced users are able to perform an easy grafical installation of a Slackware Linux system, only a few steps are to be taken.
The included QT based partitioning program 'Disk Manager' can independently be launched as a single-task application from the installation medium and offers a comparable functional range, as for instance, the commercialized software Partition Magic or the OpenSource application gParted.
Meta-Packages can now be installed with help of the graphical 'PkgWizard' within a few clicks. Together with the full featured 'PkgManager', easys GNU/Linux can be extended in a modular manner. Soon Meta-Packages for applications like OpenOffice or programs like Amarok will be available on the easys GNU/Linux Download sites.
Another innovation is the switch to the 2.6 (2.6.24.5) kernel series and the omission of the 2.4 kernel support. X DRI (Direct Rendering Interface) and a modular X.org version provide hardware accelerated 3D display.
easys GNU/Linux 4.1 is 100 % compatibel with Slackware 12.1(rc3), because no modifications of the original package sources have been done. Upgrades to Slackware 'current' are possible when ever you want.
