Try Vixta Linux

Vixta Is a new Fedora 8 based Linux os,which use kde environment and it is meant to look like Microsoft vista.

Goals:
1)Absolutely free
2)Spread linux
3)No need of Config.
4)User-Friendly.
5)Eye-catching.
6)Like Microsoft Vista in look and Feel

Too bad they didnt include features and stability as a goal.
Vixta a is a welcomed concept,but its still in childhood stage it need lot of development to be fully featured OS.It have stability issue and crashes.It have some kde applications like Kate, Konquerer,Ktorrent and Kolorpaint but KMail or Kontact is missing.Kernel support was limited,i couldn’t find any matching source.After updating the kernel it wont boot.Vixta discussion forum is not very active most questions are anwered like “refer documentation”.The vixta kernel donot include modules to enable cpu scaling in modern operating system ,i think its because they wanted to save space.
My dell xps m1530 laptop was hotter than with any other OS i have still used especially while compiling source code.Another irritating bug was the blinking panel,which would disappear while doing cpu intensuve tasks,but luckly will come back.

Conclusion:
Vixta is a nice idea,But to make it a good operationg system it have much distance to go.Its plus points are familiar looking with nice eye-candy. I suggest you install using virtual box as i did.Its source code is not provided,they tell any way its very similar to fedora so its not worth reproduce the same code.But think its not fair according to GPL every linux distro must provide its source code.Lets hope things get better in future and they will provide the source code..
