Dear FLUKA users
FLUPIX 2008.3b has been released:
Most important changes:
1. The new version of FLUPIX is based on Fedora-11.
2. Specially remastered to minimize the disk space 319Mb compared to
554Mb of the old version.
3. LXDE as a default window environment
4. No complicated persistence mechanism. It requires a virtual disk
labeled "/home" to keep the data. If you are already using a previous
version of FLUPIX you could run the command 'migrate.sh' through a
terminal to perform the migration.
5. Simpler setup
6. All latest Virtualbox additional utilities are integrated
7. Desktop resizing works simply by resizing the window.
8. Automated procedure through kickstart file to generate the ISO image.

P.S. This message is sent to the fluka-users and fluka-discuss lists as
well as to some other lists internal to the FLUKA Collaboration. I
apologize to all those who will get it twice or more

> FLUPIX is a KNOPPIX (www.knoppix.org) version of the Live CD, with
> pre-installed FLUKA, flair and all the necessary tools for performing
> fluka runs. FLUPIX can run as a bootable CD/DVD, bootable USB or
> through any virtual machine from any host operating system (Ms Windows
> XP, Vista, Mac OS, Linux, Solaris etc.) based on an Intel CPU. However
> FLUPIX includes all the additions of VirtualBox
> (http://www.virtualbox.org) an open source Virtual machine supported
> by Sun, that provides easy installation and high performance. Using
> VirtualBox (recommended way of working) you can install and have
> FLUPIX running in a couple of minutes. The only disadvantage of
> VirtualBox is that you need to have at least 1GB of RAM for Windows
> XP, Linux or 2GB for Windows Vista.
