The much-awaited lightweight spin of Fedora 12 with LXDE, delayed due to a show-stopping bug, was finally released last week: "Fedora 12 LXDE spin available for download. Sorry it took so long. While the actual problems were solved within two days, it took a little longer to create the new ISO images." For those who have never tried the LXDE desktop, here is a quick introduction from the Fedora LXDE desktop page: "LXDE, the 'Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment', is an extremely fast and energy-saving desktop environment. It is maintained by an international community of developers and comes with a beautiful interface, multi-language support, standard keyboard shortcuts and additional features like tabbed file browsing. LXDE is not designed to be powerful and bloated, but to be usable and slim. A main goal of LXDE is to keep computer resource usage low. It is especially designed for computers with low hardware specifications like netbooks, mobile devices (e.g. MIDs) or older computers."
