Looking at the access log to the blog in recent times it is clear that Linux Bodhi is moving a lot 'of people in the world of FLOSS.
's funny how at one point almost born in fashion, and that in the last two years are all trends that tend to' lightness'. I mean that many are obviously looking for a modern operating system but at the same time be able to really work on computers with low power and a few years on his shoulders. A few years does not mean only 3 or 4 but 6 or 7 years old, maybe less computer with 400 MB of RAM and single core processors and Windows today would be good only for the lonely (again if the boot is successful).
So here is that in this context a couple of years ago was born the race to LXDE , lightweight desktop manager like Windows 2000 and so it seemed just the tonic to take to ferry people from Windows to Linux perhaps reviving an old PC. Series: The new computer with Windows38, but you've got the old test to see if you like Linux ....
Then you realize that LXDE is as light, lighter than XCFE , is still not optimal, but for the misery and OpenBox FluxBox are a bit 'too spartan and a bit of' carinezze 'the Linari we want on the PC.
Well, how many times now that there appears Bodhi Linux horizon that with its desktop manager out of the chorus (Enlightment), and its minimalist displaces all logic of force and take its place in the world of distributions "to the bone."
Today, Jeff Hogland has announced version 0.1.7 release candidate of Linux Bodhi for which he announced a series of minor adjustments. First, after a long discussion it was thought that Firfox 4.0 was not really a choice of browsers light, so they switched to Midori. Midori is a less developed browser and WebKit on GTK +2, very fast and very small footprint.

Bodhi Linux has always been known to have only two and a half installed: The browser, the terminal and Synaptic Installation of programs. This time it was also added Leafpad, minimal operator texts that on many occasions can be useful for editing configuration files.
Software
Bodhi Linux is in turn based on Ubuntu, from which a number of mutual compatibility and certainty in terms of software, and this makes it a more interesting choice given that provides us with perhaps the largest park in the world of Linux programs. Bodhi
team has, however, tried to make life easier for those who have been moved to Linux for the installation of new applications: if it was not simple enough Synatpic will just go the site and at Bodhi Add Software (add software) will be possible with a single clik install dozens of programs directly from vs. browser.
page program applications are divided into categories and subcategories click on the desired sub-category lists the individual applications are available: here to install just click on the name and the Bodhi ingenious system will activate the download and then install without any further questions .
Bodhi and printing
A question that you might like is easy, but how do I install a printer, good look in the Extra category, subcategory and you will find System Tools 'Printing'. One click and start the installation of CUPS with all dependencies required to add and configure a printer according to the rules of Debian / Ubuntu. Random
other little things
Among other things I can think to recommend for installation would include:
Evince - to view the PDF Software

Eye of gnome - to view pictures in folders
gcalc - We can do without a calculator?
ubuntu-restricted-extras - to get all the codec you need
Skype - telephony and chat
Pidgin - all other chat and messaging
libreoffice - suite of office applications (that hard)
gnumeric - spreadsheet very light
abiword - word processor without exaggerated claims
vlc - mediaplayer also well known in the windows world
