Damn Small Linux (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damn_small_linux) is back from the dead, with a version 4.11 RC1 release announcement (http://distrowatch.com/?newsid=07373) at Distrowatch and another at the DSL Forums (http://damnsmalllinux.org/forums/index.php?topic=11.0)! Quoting: 'Here is the first release candidate for Damn Small Linux (DSL) 4.11. The changes in this release are a step toward making DSL a friendly alternative for older hardware. I've fixed some bugs, updated some applications, and replaced others. Applications: updated JWM to 2.1.0 (now supports rounding); updated Dillo to 3.0.2 (much improves CSS support); added XChat 1.8.9; added sic 1.1 IRC client; added XCalc-color. Modified desktop functionality: it is now possible to switch between JWM and Fluxbox without shutting down X; added menu items to switch between DFM and xtdesk icon engines or use none at all." Here's the download page (http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/download.html)
