Greenie Linux 3.0.2H, an Ubuntu-based Linux distribution designed for Czech and Slovak-speaking users, was announced by Stanislav Hoferek and its main goal is to provide a simple to use operating system for everyday tasks, targeted at beginners and advanced users at the same time. Greenie looks much better now, as it received some aesthetic improvements.

This release is based on the latest stable edition of Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) and comes with Mozilla Firefox 3.0 RC1 and Opera 9.50. The default movie player is now VLC, a cross-platform multimedia player and streaming server that allows you to play different audio and video formats, DVDs, VCDs and different streaming protocols. The default photo viewer is now gThumb, an image browser and viewer for the GNOME desktop environment. Moreover, Greenie's size was reduced so it can fit on only one CD, the Bash aliases were improved for easier command execution and The GIMP comes packed up with a few additional plug-ins.

Fans of the popular Battle for Wesnoth, the free turn based strategy game created by David White, Frets on Fire and MPlayer will be disappointed, because the developer decided to remove them from this release. Frets on Fire is a game written in Python where you have to play along with the scrolling on-screen musical notes to complete a song.

Besides the two already available desktop environments, GNOME and OpenBox, another one was added. LXDE (Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment), is now included in Greenie Linux 3.02H and was designed to be slim enough to keep the resource consumption at a low level. The components of the LXDE are independent and every one of them can be used separately with a small number of dependencies.
