Last week we learned a bit about the chaotic jumble that is audio on Linux, and about the new PulseAudio sound server that just may create bit of order, and perhaps some more user-friendliness. Several Linux distributions default to using PulseAudio, such as Fedora, Ubuntu Hardy Heron, and Mandriva.

Kernel Developers Want Linux Purity
Not that long ago Linux barely had two drivers to rub together. Now it claims to support 'more hardware devices than any other operating system in the history of the world' and, figuring it's time to push IHVs to open their code, 150 Linux kernel developers, including Alan Cox, signed a 'Position Statement' decrying the use of any closed source kernel module or drivers in Linux.

What is custom nimbleX
Do-it-yourself distributions have made great strides
since Linux from Scratch, or even rPath's rBuilder
Online. In the last few months, users have even
been able to produce custom disk images with such
tools as Fedora's Revisor and Ubuntu's Reconstructor.
However, one of the most elegant tools to emerge
recently is Custom NimbleX, a online program that
allows you to construct an ISO image in your browser
and then download it. Custom NimbleX lacks some
things, but is so simply and well-designed.
Visitors to the Custom NimbleX URL are met with a
minimalist window in the middle of a page,
surrounded by ads. A bar graph at the top of the
page shows 200MB the image takes up for the basic
operating system. You can begin customizing from here.
If you make a mistake or change your mind, you
can use the Back button to retrace your steps right
up to the time you actually produce your ISO image.
On the first screen past the Welcome, you choose the
level of customization. If you simply want an image
of NimbleX, you can choose Minimal (which refers
to the amount of customization, not the size of the
image). However, as the instructions in the window
point out, that "is probably not the reason you came
here." Instead, most users will probably want to
choose the Custom install, which provides no guides
about what to install, or Recommended, which includes
suggested defaults.
