gNewSense : A totally Free Ubuntu Linux

Today the gNewSense team released version 1.1 of their “cleaned” Ubuntu Linux version. Basically, they take Ubuntu Linux and strips it for all non-free packages (applications, drivers etc.), making it a ‘Linux for Human Beings’ that appreciate Freedom in every aspects of the word.

The result it a Linux distribution promoted by the Free Software Foundation.

It even contains a re-branded Firefox, named Iceweazel (this is due to the strict copyright terms with the current Firefox name and logo).
