"... I was really impressed!" ... "...I was pleasantly surprised..." - Marcel Gagné talking about Klikit-Linux on the Computer America Radio Show  (Nov 20,2007)

"The most exciting thing to happen recently to Ubuntu is Klikit-Linux" - Distropedia

What is happening with Klikit-Linux?

At the moment we are working on our most ambitious project, to be able to offer our users the possibility of running Gnome or KDE as their working environment,  and have both seamlessly integrated. Our users will also have the advantage of using KDE 3.x or 4.x depending which one they like or need, and they'll be able to run programs from any of the included enviroments with the same feel and look (in general similar to the look of KDE 4.x).
We are doing a very special selection of the included programs, trying to choose mainly those that are cross-platform not only with in the included enviroments,  but if possible also with the Windows platform.
This release will include legally most of the codecs needed to run practically any multimedia file.
Because of all the work involved we had to skip the version of Klikit-Linux based on the Intrepid core. The current available version of Klikit-Linux is based on the Hardy core, and the future version will be based mainly in the Jaunty core.
The first release of this new version should be ready a few weeks after Ubuntu releases its coming 9.04 (Jaunty) version...
Welcome to Klikit-Linux!

What is Klikit-Linux?

 Klikit-Linux is an informal project focused on developing a modern, free, user-friendly and fun Linux desktop. It uses the well known, award winning KDE environment. It can run as a LIVE-DVD/CD on practically any PC (x86), and can be installed to your hard drive in just a few minutes.

 Klikit-Linux is based on the latest stable release of Kubuntu, taking advantage of many of its best features, and then adds its own touch, depending on the desires of the community. The release dates of Klikit-Linux will depend on the stability of the latest Kubuntu packages.

 Klikit-Linux comes with a collection of applications that will meet most of your daily computer needs, such as office, graphic, multimedia, and  internet work.

 Klikit-Linux is a true community-driven project. You and the community are,  and will always be,  the main voice behind any decision that is taken building the O.S.

 Klikit-Linux is and always will be completely free, You will be able to use it, modify it, distribute it and do whatever you want with it. You will always have the freedom of choice.


What is the Klikit-Linux Storehouse?

The Klikit-Linux Storehouse is a free, easy, one-click on-line service to install and remove linux programs (packages), libraries and drivers. It is basically a sophisticated apt-get web front-end.
Because it is based on apt-get it does not depend on a centralized server, all the packages are pulled directly from the repositories listed in your system's sources list. The advantage is that the software will always be compatible with your system, and will always be up to date.
At this moment it is under very heavy development, and  it is still not complete


For certain packages not officially available the Klikit-Linux  Storehouse provides its own repository.

The Klikit-Linux Storehouse software delivery service is the easiest and safest way to install and uninstall software in your system.

Using the Klikit-Linux Storehouse You will be able to install more than 20,000 packages.

At the moment the Klikit protocol only works with Klikit-Linux, but can be adapted very easily to any system that uses apt-get. In the future we will be providing instructions of how to install and use it in other distributions.

As an extra benefit the Klikit-Linux Storehouse also provides  extra information of the packages,  such as links to its official web page, screenshots, tutorials, user ratings, and more.

Hope to see you in the future enjoying
Klikit-Linux and the Klikit-Linux Storehouse!...
