ALT Linux TDE 20180328

ALT Linux TDE is an open source distribution of Linux built around the the Trinity desktop environment and based on the Mandrake operating system. It is designed to be used on computers with old hardware components.

Distributed as 32-bit and 64-bit Live CDs

It is distributed as two Live CD ISO-hybrid images, one for each of the supported hardware platforms (32-bit and 64-bit), designed to be deployed on either USB flash drives or blank CD discs.

If deployed on a USB thumb drive, ALT Linux provides users with a fully accessible persistent mode, which allows users to save their live sessions each time they’re using the boot medium. The persistent session can be activated from the boot menu, which can also be used to start an existing operating system or run a memory test.

Features the Trinity desktop environment and many KDE apps

TDE (Trinity Desktop Environment) is a fork of the old-school KDE3 desktop environment, and is comes with a neat collection of open source applications for common tasks, such as Konqueror, Akregator, Amarok, Kaffeine, OpenSCADA, KView, as well as numerous educational apps and games.

The Mozilla Firefox web browser is also included, as well as the Krusader and Midnight Commander twin-panel file managers. Users will be able to install, update and remove packages with the Synaptic Package Manager tool.
