Hi to all.

A colleague teaching programming in a Jerusalem high school has asked me
to get him a try-out version of Linux. He's a total newbie (never seen
Linux in any form), has excellent Hebrew, so-so English and native
Russian. Obviously a live CD is step one.

For Hebrew I'll give him Kinneret and Kazit. Since I'm unsure how
comfortable he'll feel with an English GUI, I've looked for a live CD
with a Russian interface. Google gave me a Russian Knoppix
http://www.linuxcenter.ru/index.phtml?good=417 , but there seems to be
no free download. I'll d/l and burn Blin for him, but it has no KDE,
which would be better if he's already looking at KDE in Kazit and
Kinneret. (Better not overwhelm him with variety on first contact).

I'm curious as to whether there are any other recommendations from the
list membership. (One year of elementary Russian at university 25 years
ago makes reading Russian websites a slow task.)
