About Debian Edu and Skolelinux

+ +

Debian Edu, also known as +Skolelinux, is a Linux distribution based on Debian providing an +out-of-the box environment of a completely configured school +network. Immediatly after installation a school server running all +services needed for a school network is set up just waiting for users +and machines being added via GOsa², a comfortable Web-UI. A netbooting +environment is prepared using PXE, so after initial installation of +the main server from CD, DVD or USB stick all other machines can be +installed via the network.

+ +

This is the first test release based on Wheezy (which currently is +not released yet). Basically this is an updated and slightly improved +version compared to the Squeeze release.

+ +

Software updates

+ + + +

Documentation + + * The (English) Debian Edu Wheezy Manual is fully translated to + German, French, Italian and Danish. Partly translated versions exist + for Norwegian Bokmal and Spanish. + +

LDAP related changes

+ + * Slight changes to some objects and acls to have more types to + choose from when adding systems in GOsa. Now systems can be of type + server, workstation, printer, terminal or netdevice. + +

Other changes

+ + * LTSP clients start as diskless workstation / thin client can be + configured via command line argument -- or individually adding an + entry in lts.conf or LDAP. + * GOsa gui: Now some options that seemed to be available, but are non + functional, are greyed out (or are not clickable). Some tabs are + completely hidden to the end user, others even to the GOsa admin. + +

Regressions

+ + * No mass import of user account data in GOsa (ldif or csv) available + yet. + +

No updated artwork + + * Updated artwork which is visible during installation, in the login + screen and as desktop wallpaper is still missing or the same as we + had for our Squeeze based release. + +
