Tanglu GNOME For Linux

Tanglu GNOME is an open source Linux distribution built around the complex GNOME (with GNOME Shell) desktop environment and based on the stable Debian GNU/Linux operating system.

Being designed for human beings, the Tanglu Linux distribution includes up-to-date and top notch open source applications, tries to provide users with the best desktop experience, and it’s distributed as separate GNOME and KDE editions.

Two Live DVD ISO images are available for the Tanglu GNOME distribution, for both 64-bit and 32-bit architectures. There are hybrid ISO images, which means that users will be able to deploy them on USB flash drives.

The 32-bit ISO image provides built-in support for PAE (Physical Address Extension). The boot menu can be used to boot the currently installed operating system, run the live environment in failsafe mode, detect the hardware components of your computer, or test the system memory for errors.

Besides a beautiful wallpaper, the GNOME desktop environment integrated in this edition of Tanglu Linux is untouched. It includes only a few applications and provides users with a pure GNOME desktop experience.

Default applications include the LibreOffice office suite (Calc, Impress, Writer, Draw, Math), Mozilla Firefox web browser, Nautilus file manager, Deja Dup backup utility, Empathy instant messenger, Gedit text editor, Evince document viewer, Eye of GNOME image viewer, Shotwell image organizer and editor, Totem video player, and Rhythmbox music player.

The GNOME PackageKit package manager is also installed to help novice users to easily install or remove applications from their system. There’s also a Software Updater tool for keeping your Tanglu OS up-to-date at all times.

Among other utilities included in Tanglu GNOME, we can mention GNOME Documents, ADSL/PPPoE support, addressbook, GNOME Keyring, Remmina remote desktop client, terminal emulator, Orca screen reader, archive manager, calculator, character map, log viewer, font viewer, system monitor, disk usage analyzer, disk partitioner, and screenshot utility.
