KINO is an open source video editor than runs on GNU/Linux distros such as Ed/X/Ubuntu !

ELIVECD is a multi-media Debian distro that already includes KINO or just download KINO itself !

gNewSense is derived from Ubuntu, and thus has most of the same functionality.

There are a number of differences though.

• Firmware removed from kernel in main*
• Builder, a tool to produce a distribution
• Restricted removed
• Ubuntu logos replaced
• Universe enabled by default
• emacs, bsdgames, nethack and build-essential part of the default install

Note the goal is to produce a fully free distribution, not to have as many features as possible.

Just installed gNewSense and whereas Debian calls FireFox IceWeasel, GnewSense calls FireFox BurningDog !

Burningdog

Here are some differences according to the Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 Bible

• interactive browser
  
• more flexible searching
• apt-get installs "depends" pkgs aptitude installs "recommended" pkgs as well
• aptitude removes automatic dependancies

I noticed the default Default 4.0 install enables/uses a root account (unlike Ubunutu) however I've just re-run the installer in expertgui mode and it gives me a choice of root or sudo modes !

Which mode is your favorite ?

• (default)
• expert
• installgui
• expertgui
