very kind of you :)

if you can create a torrent and seed it and just send me the torrent link i can add it to the site and obviously give you credit for hosting ... if not a torrent even a direct http link would be extremely helpful and very much appreciated.

The major changes in Opera will not happen very soon, they will implement changes on mobile browser before touching Pc browser and that will only be near year end, and just because they are moving to webkit it doesnt mean its a bad thing, right now no one knows whats going on behind the curtains. They have always been the best browser in my eyes, not just because of speed, but because its highly configurable and to be blunt their speedial feature just kills other browsers ( yes you can add it to chrome and firefox via extensions, but it still not the same thing and surges the resource usage ) and until that changes i will continue to support them.

Analyst are always highly critical and always fearing the worst, Opera has recently purchased Skyfire as well, and from what ive read Opera team are already implementing patches from Presto into Webkit, so in the long run Chrome browser will also improve, so there is probly alot going on that no one knows about, im sure the Opera team know what they are doing.

And as i stated, currently it is the best web browser, Ive tried them all, I live online, and Opera just feels smoother, looks better, runs faster most of the time, uses less resources, less bandwidth, has most common features built in without the need for additional extensions and is highly configurable. So while it holds this standard it deserves its place in the Distro :)

Dont you ever get tired of one desktop ?
Click to expand...

Nah, I use XFCE on my Desktop & Openbox on my laptop. Every now and again I will give the likes of gnome3, unity, kde4, mate, cinnamon etc a spin but but there is no attraction for me to stay.
 
Just a silly bug/mistake I picked up. Your installer still references Linux Mint in the partitioning section. There are 4 options, but the 2 middle options were not changed.
 
yip, aware of that, something i forgot to remove, had a D date to get the final build uploaded and my focus was on stability and bug fixing, so was bound to miss something, but its minor tho so not to much worry, altho i was waiting to see who would post about it :)

We already busy with the next release which is based on 3.8 kernel, and its fixed on that build, infact we replacing ubiquity completely.
 
We have reached over 1300 Downloads in the first week since the release of 1.0 of MukuluLinux, We are proud of the fact that we have yet to receive any bugs reports.

We have started working on Makululinux Version 1.2 :)

Some nice changes are being implemented, All desktops environments are being updated to latest versions ( Cinnamon 1.7, KDE 4.10, Mate 1.6, Unity-raring ) the Distribution is built on kernel 3.8 to support newer hardware. Some new Software will be added and current software will be updated. New Deepin Software Center is being implemented.

Unlike the previous release this release is not be based on Mint 14, Altho our work from the current release is used as a base framework, we promise to bring the same stability.

I will post updates on our blog as new updates are available, you can follow the blog here.

A Beta Release is in the works, ETA Date, Soon.

I think I had the older version. I downloaded 2.5 last night and installed it.

Had lots of problems with the updares, but I think I can relate that to my ISP. Will try again today.

Did join your forum, so I will soon be your biggest pain in the arse noob.
:)
 
lol, there is no such thing... :)

I am really proud of all our current releases, however you should check out the new MakuluLinux 3.0 previews, this will be a MAJOR change from older versions, for starters its based on Debian, and not Ubuntu or mint and even in early stages runs extremely stable, Building the Distro even tho it includes A Hell of alot more work, i have had FAR less problems and thus progress is going at a much faster speed. It took me MONTHS to build just one distro off the mini iso from ringtail, With debian, even from scratch i do in a matter of days what ringtail took weeks to do.

Preview Version 3 here :
