Bodhi Linux 2.2.0 Released With Stable E17 Desktop, non-PAE 32Bit ISO

<div style="text-align: justify;"><b><a href="http://www.bodhilinux.com/">Bodhi Linux</a> is a minimalistic Linux distribution that uses the Enlightenment Desktop (E17)</b>. Based on Ubuntu, Bodhi Linux is a semi-rolling release distribution: it comes with the core Ubuntu LTS packages but it also uses backports for its applications so the users can get the latest app updates.</div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://img.netupd8.com/bodhi-desktop.png" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="Bodhi Linux 2.2.0: Desktop profile, default theme"><img alt="Bodhi Linux 2.2.0 Desktop" src="http://img.netupd8.com/bodhi-desktop_thumb.png" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Bodhi Linux 2.2.0: Desktop profile, default theme</td></tr></tbody></table></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">The latest <b>Bodhi Linux 2.2.0</b>, <a href="http://jeffhoogland.blogspot.ro/2013/01/bodhi-linux-220-released.html">released</a> yesterday, is the first version to ship with the new <b>stable E17 desktop</b>. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">But that's not all, the new release also comes with <b>two 32bit versions</b>: one that has PAE enabled by default and one that uses the non-PAE Linux Kernel - however, the non-PAE Kernel is older: 3.2 while the PAE-enabled version ships with the 3.7 Kernel. This means that old computers that couldn't boot the previous release (or that can't boot Ubuntu 12.04 / 12.10) can now do so by using the Bodhi Linux 2.2.0 non-PAE ISO.</div><br /><a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: justify;">Also, with this release, Bodhi Linux uses <b>hybrid ISO images</b> so you can write the image using the "dd" command (but of course, using other tools such as Unetbootin still works).</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Other changes in Bodhi Linux 2.2.0 include: updated Bodhi QuickStart guide and Bodhi Guide to Enlightenment, a <b>new default theme</b> along with <b>refreshed default profiles</b> (Bare, Compositing, Desktop, Fancy, Laptop, Table and Tiling) and some <b>new themes installed by default</b>.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">You probably want to see some more screenshots, so here they are:</div><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://img.netupd8.com/bodhi-compositing-sgrey-theme.png" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="Bodhi Linux 2.2.0: Compositing profile, SGrey theme"><img alt="Bodhi Linux 2.2.0 screenshot" src="http://img.netupd8.com/bodhi-compositing-sgrey-theme_thumb.png" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Compositing profile, SGrey theme</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://img.netupd8.com/bodhi-fancy.png" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="Bodhi Linux 2.2.0: Fancy profile"><img alt="Bodhi Linux 2.2.0 screenshot" src="http://img.netupd8.com/bodhi-fancy_thumb.png" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Fancy profile</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://img.netupd8.com/bodhi-laptop-ness-theme.png" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="Bodhi Linux 2.2.0: Laptop profile, Ness theme"><img alt="Bodhi Linux 2.2.0 screenshot" src="http://img.netupd8.com/bodhi-laptop-ness-theme_thumb.png" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Laptop profile, Ness theme</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://img.netupd8.com/bodhi-moonlight-theme.png" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="Bodhi Linux 2.2.0: Moonlight theme"><img alt="Bodhi Linux 2.2.0 screenshot" src="http://img.netupd8.com/bodhi-moonlight-theme_thumb.png" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Moonlight theme</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://img.netupd8.com/bodhi-tablet.png" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="Bodhi Linux 2.2.0: Tablet profile"><img alt="Bodhi Linux 2.2.0 screenshot" src="http://img.netupd8.com/bodhi-tablet_thumb.png" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Tablet profile</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Those of you who aren't familiar with Bodhi Linux probably want to know its default application/package selection: by default, Bodhi Linux uses the <b>Enlightenment File Manager</b>, <b>Midori</b> as the default web browser, Leafpad text editor, LXTerminal, <b>Synaptic</b> Package Manager and LXDM for the login screen, among others.</div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">In other Bodhi Linux <a href="http://jeffhoogland.blogspot.ro/2013/01/bodhi-is-arming-up-for-new-year.html">news</a>, the <b>Raspberry Pi and Samsung Chromebook ISOs were updated a couple of days ago</b>:</div><ul><li>the Raspberry Pi image got the new E17 packages along with WICD network manager by default which should be useful for PIs with wireless addons;</li><li>the Chromebook image now has audio working by default and smoother trackpad, including two finger tap.</li></ul><a href="http://img.netupd8.com/2013-01-04-10.34.59.jpg" rel="image_group" title="My...
