Cutefish OS 0.6 Beta released with more system settings.
And CutefishOS 0.6 Beta was released with more system configurations. Check out the
news and find out where to download the distribution.
CuteFishOS' stated goal is “to make the desktop OS have a better experience” and
an installable distro image is available for download for testing and development purposes.
CuteFish's desktop itself consists of a desktop dock (which can be moved left or right), a
basic status bar (with global menu), plus a full-screen (searchable) application launcher
and session and lock screens.
Now a new beta version of CutefishOS is available for download, CutefishOS 0.6 beta.
What's New in CutefishOS 0.6 While things are ready for the “daily driver”
(yet), the distro provides a quick and easy way to try out the latest developments in
the Cutefish Qt-based desktop environment on top of a familiar apt foundation.
We saw an Ubuntu-based deployment a few months ago.
In CutefishOS 0.6 beta, the distro comes with a number of new settings, including:
network proxy Sound settings
Bluetooth settings 24 hour time option
Energy management There are also some new features, such as
the ability to drag and drop icons from the tray to rearrange them. You can also turn
Cutefish's dock into something more like a panel from the Dock settings page:
Cutefish file manager supports drag and drop to move files, as well as the ability to show
hidden files. Now I know these look like basic features, but keep in mind that developers
started from scratch here. Features, big and small, take a while to implement.
Finally, Cutefish's lock screen now shows media controls if music or videos are playing.
There's also a new unlock animation to enhance the user experience.

Download and try CutefishOS 0.6 The CutefishOS 0.6 ISO image can now be downloaded
by going to the distribution's download page .
Keep in mind the usual caveats that apply to sampling unstable software. Although I
haven't encountered any major issues during my practice, the distro (like the desktop
environment) remains a work in progress.
