Alternative Desktop Environments

Alternative Desktop Environments
I have changed the default download to include the alternative desktop versions. The ISO uses a Net Installer to select and install the desktop environment during the Post Installation Setup process. The ISO does require internet to install. I have successfully tested each DE enabled in the installer under a VM in UEFI mode. I am not sure if Legacy BIOS can successfully install but most systems fitting the hardware requirements for install have UEFI boot support these days so Legacy BIOS is not a priority at the moment.

Upcoming Work and Bug fixes
There are some theme issues such as theme files getting over written when selecting multiple DE's or some icons from KDE re-appearing on non-KDE environments when updating apt packages. These are simple fixes by editing desktop base and base files packages. Other issues include theming issues and wallpaper on IceWM and WindowMaker.

Once the bugs are all fixed, work will start on updating features in the TTOS ProShield Sentry firewall and work will begin on both the Linux Enterprise Server and Gaming Distro.

Have a great night everyone!
