About

BunsenLabs Linux Lithium is a distribution offering a light-weight and easily customizable Openbox desktop. The project is a community continuation of CrunchBang Linux. The current release is derived from Debian 10. The distribution consists of configuration and resource packages installed on top of Debian. There are no changes to the way the Debian base system is administrated. Pre-configured Openbox window manager with tint2 panel, conky system monitor and jgmenu, a feature-rich desktop menu. Assortment of harmonising GTK2/3 themes, wallpapers and conky configurations. Various configuration and application utilities to maintain this system. Additional desktop-, multimedia- and hardware-related packages come pre-installed to offer a better “out-of-the-box” experience. There is no limit to customization. We offer combined live-CD and installation media for the Debian amd64 (x86-64) architectures and i386 (i686) architectures.

About

NixOS is a Linux distribution built around the Nix package manager and Nixpkgs. It lets users describe operating-system settings, packages, services, accounts, and other system components in configuration files, then build and activate the resulting system with NixOS tools. This declarative approach supports maintaining repeatable configurations across personal computers and groups of servers, while system generations allow users to select or roll back to earlier configurations. NixOS provides graphical and minimal installation images for supported 64-bit Intel/AMD and ARM systems, and can also be deployed as virtual machine images or on Amazon EC2. It is intended for Linux users, developers, and system administrators who want to define and manage workstation, server, or cloud-machine environments through versionable configuration.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • BunsenLabs make OpenBox very easy to use in a day routine on computer. The base of this operating system is Debian and we can get software from Debian repositories. After install we are presented to a script that helps us to install LibreOffice, OpenJdk and Printer support. Nice job and excellent design. I like the Dragon theme.
  • Openbox window manager. Compact. Runs well on older hardware. Easy to install. Good support (forum). User friendly. Low memory usage. Fast.

Cons

  • 1. The installation is from Debian installer so, we have to read carefully each step on installation, but it just requires more attention, not a handicap; 2. We have to study OpenBox. Not a handicap, but an invite to learn.
  • Sometimes upgrades from Debian versions take a bit longer.
