ssmithisme Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Any hopes too see this distribution in the future? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr0p Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Uhm... there is no point for BT to move to x64 really, and gnome you can install yourself pretty easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArkNinja Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Yeah, x64 would be pretty pointless... But I do prefer GNOME, it would be nice if they offered both KDE and GNOME as download options, less hassle, especially if you want it to be a Live-CD/DVD/USB.

moonlit Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 64bit isn't really necessary, 32bit works just fine and it's compatible with pretty much everything. As for Gnome, well, personally I would say that BT is what it is, I don't like KDE but if I'm using BT then it doesn't get in my way. It comes as a package and frankly since BT isn't meant to be a desktop distro anyway I see little need for Gnome (or any other major changes). If you want it that bad, you could work Gnome in there yourself, or even better, just install your own distro however you like it and add in the parts of BT you need, most of it is available as standalone apps anyway.

deleted Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Another Solution would be to create your own securty and pen testing linux distro with gnome and on a 64bit kernel. Even if it is just for yourself, its a really good skill to have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it is just for yourself, its a really good skill to have. I was thinking about that actually but I do not know where to start. I would want it to be ubuntu based.

Resix Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 You can add the BT 4 repositories in Ubuntu Packet Manager, and just install all the tools ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArkNinja Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 There are many tools for Ubuntu to make your own distrobution. The one ive heard the most about is reconstructor, and here is a guide I found for it: http://maketecheasier.com/reconstructor-cr...tion/2008/07/05, looks pretty good and the program looks pretty straight forward as far as I can tell.

Mark Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 Does BT allow dual monitors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArkNinja Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I would imagine so, just plug it in... Should do some plug-n-play stuff, if not, try going through monitor configuration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
