DistroWatch Weekly, Issue 293, 9 March 2009

distrowatch.com: Have you ever run out of space on your hard drive or had to fiddle with shifting data around? Well, Logical Volume Management (LVM) could be the answer for you! It is supported in most Linux distributions and this week we take a look at what it can offer. In the news section, openSUSE publishes new trademark guidelines, Ubuntu releases mainline kernel updates, the Debian project goes to the polls to elect a new project leader, and ULTILEX delivers a brilliant live CD that offers a collection of minimalist Linux distributions and several useful utilities. Finally, while the week has brought precious little in terms of interesting new releases, we took the time to add four new distributions to the DistroWatch database; that includes the purposely insecure Damn Vulnerable Linux, the Slackware-based Parslinux with KDE 4, the ultra minimalist Tiny Core Linux, and the energy-saving wattOS. Happy reading!
