Flavio Pereira de Oliveira announced today the third release of his popular Slackware-based Live CD Linux distribution, GoblinX, also known as G:Standard. GoblinX 3.0 used to have five desktop managers, but it appears that Flavio decided to keep only one, the K Desktop Environment. With the KDE4 on board, this distribution offers stability and good looks on a bootable Live CD ISO image.
"In the past the GoblinX Standard included five windows managers and also support for five languages, but G:Standard is now the KDE distribution of our project, and because the limited space it includes only the default engligh [sic] language. In the future the distribution which will replace G:Standard when we finally start the new project will not anymore be a livecd, instead it will be a livedvd. If you need another language you need to download the respective package in our repository inside kdei folder." - said Flavio Pereira de Oliveira in the official release announcement.
