Zenix.logo ~ Linux for Enlightened Beings

Welcome to Zenix.


Zenix is an Ubuntu remix with several goals:

  1. Community - We would like to continue the tradition of an Ubuntu "Buddhist Edition". This is achieved primarily via themes and the inclusion of Buddhist Bookmarks in Firefox. The Buddhist content is "soft" and for non-Buddhists should be non-intrusive.

  2. Security - Zenix includes an active firewall (iptables configured with GUFW) and AppArmor is configured out of the box (with custom profiles for network aware applications).

  3. Compatibility with Ubuntu - Zenix uses the standard Ubuntu repositories and we hope to release Zenix in sync with Ubuntu.

Future plans:

Zenix is just starting and as our community grows we hope to provide additional features. Examples include a meta package in the form of a ppa akin to zenbuntu-desktop which would provide artwork (zenix-xsplash for example) as well as the custom apparmor profiles.


Community participation is encouraged!!!

The project is starting up and we welcome anyone interested in becoming involved. This can include everything from sending additional bookmarks for inclusion in Firefox to Artwork to testing iso to development.


Additional Information:

The final iso are available for testing.

The installer (ubiquity) is now working, however it pulls in additional packages such as JRE, Open Office, and a number of Language packs.
