Re: Fwd: New version of xfld - Xfce live demo

Wow! That's quite big. Before Xubuntu, if someone wanted an Xfce livecd,
I used to suggest Xfld. I think it's great news that they are now based
on Xubuntu. Perhaps this warrants a news story entry on the website?

Yes I think it should go on the site. Oliver (one of the Xfld devs who mailed me about this)
corrected me saying that it's only a liveCD. I did not try it myself so don't know about this.
It is possible they do not ship ubiquity at all with their package selection being different.
As for being based on Xubuntu/Ubuntu it is a bit ambiguous as they use the xfce packages
I assume but not all the apps which also make up xubuntu. So the correct thing to say is they
are based on  Ubuntu (repositories) and use some Xubuntu packages, like Mepis I think which is
KDE but not Kubuntu.
Anyway the mail I forwarded says xubuntu and their site ubuntu.
