The first beta version of Wolvix Cub 2.0.0 is ready for testing.

Grab the ISO here:

    * Oithona.com: wolvix-cub-2.0.0-beta1.iso
    * RubyRingTech.com: Wolvix download mirrors
    * List of packages: packages-wolvix-cub-2.0.0-beta1.txt

Wolvix Cub is a smaller edition of Wolvix featuring Fluxbox as it's default window manager and a moderate selection of lightweight applications. The Fluxbox desktop can be optionally enhanced with an application launcher bar (wbar) and a system monitor (Conky) from launchers in the menu. It also features LXDE, a lightweight desktop environment.

Netbook compatibility has been improved for Asus Eee PC models 901 and up with the inclusion of the Ralink rt2860 driver. And for all Eee PCs with the addition of the ACPI scripts which controls the hotkeys.

Some screenshots taken on my Asus Eee 1000H:

    * shot1 shot2  shot3
    * shot4  shot5  shot6

Known issues: The bug with gksu still unresolved so Cub is also affected by this. And there's an issue with SLiM which seems to be related to the Intel graphics drivers where an image of the login screen appears in a window. It's an annoying, but harmless bug. Just close the window and you'll get the desktop.

Give Wolvix Cub a spin and let me know what you think of it.
