AriOS is a GNU/Linux operating system based on Ubuntu. AriOS comes with many extra applications, multimedia codecs, flash and java plugins, many tweaks and a unique look and feel! AriOS is not just Ubuntu+extra packages. It has been carefully designed to help you get productive instantly instead of spending a lot of hours configuring your system. AriOS word could be translated into “The Operating System from the Ancient Persia”.
组件如下
No Unity! Unity has been removed as I think it still lacks a lot of features and customization options.
-Downgraded compiz. AriOS comes with compiz 2:0.8.6-0ubuntu9.2.1 to avoid the problems reported about the new version shipped in Natty.
-Sessions: You can choose between 3 sessions at login: AriOS, AriOS-2D and Gnome Classic. The default session (AriOS) uses compiz as window manager, if your video card is capable of running compiz and you have the proprietary drivers installed (Nvidia & ATI). Otherwise it will revert to AriOS-2D session which uses Metacity for managing windows.
-Alt+F2 shortcut has been re-assigned to Synapse, the smart, semantic launcher. There are 3 ways to summon Synapse: pressing Alt+f2, pressing Ctrl+Space and using the “Run Command” button in the main menu.
-Offline driver installer: This is a utility meant for computers with poor or no internet connection. It installs proprietary drivers (Nvidia, ATI, Broadcom STA, etc.) It should only be run before any software is updated, added or removed. To use it run “AriOS Driver Installer” from the “Administration” menu or type “driver-install” in a terminal. (Many thanks to hacktolive.org for helping me to make this work.)
-Multimedia codecs and two powerful media players (VLC and GNOME Mplayer) for playing all kinds of audio and video files as well as video DVDs.
-Evolution replaced by Thunderbird.
-LibreOffice has replaced OpenOffice.org
