Re: [Ankur-core] Ankur's New Bangla GNU/Linux Distro (H oimonti - হৈমন্তী) Released

Dear Golam bhai,

Mainly home users. We are trying with the local PC vendors.. but seems
they are not much interested as there is no rules on piracy. Hoping
for the best. :)

Best,
-Jamil

 Hi,

 That's good news! Whom are you mainly targeting with this?
 I mean are they end-user or also some local PC vendor?

 Cheers,
 Golam

  Friends,
 
  We are glad to inform you that, 2nd installable Bangla distro based on
  Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) [0] has released. The codename of this
  release is Hoimonti (হৈমন্তী). The first one, Sraboni (শ্রাবণী), was
  based on Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake) [1].
 
  Some new features over the default Gutsy installation:
 
  * Customized Debian/Ubuntu Installer: It will take less inputs
  then usual text installer
  * After installation it will boot into Bangla locale (ie. bn_BD
  locale) by default
  * Some important software are included,
o Banshee - Audio Management and Playback application
o Gnash - free SWF movie player
o Gnome-PPP - modem internet connection tool for the GNOME Desktop
o GParted - GNOME partition editor
o Ogle - DVD player with support for DVD menus
o VLC Player - multimedia player and streamer
  * Some codecs are included which will help to play various
  audio/video files out of the box
  * Some updated deb packages (ie. Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.8)
 
  Some issues:
 
  * There might be some issues while installation if the CDROM is
  old, DMA enable/desabled, S.M.A.R.T. enable/desabled for IDE channels.
  * If you put IP address during installation but there is no
  Internet connection, then it will take un-wanted delays cause it tries
  to download some packages from the Internet.
  * Internal modems might not work/be detected/need to download
  restricted modules.
  * Gutsy itself has some issues which are mentioned in their
  Release Notes [2].
  * Let us know if you get any.
