LUnix, short for "Little Unix",[1] is a Unix-like operating system designed to run natively on the Commodore 64 and Commodore 128[2] home computer systems. It supports TCP/IP networking (SLIP or PPP using an RS232interface). Unlike most Unix-like systems, LUnix is written in 6502 assembly language instead of C.
[/size]The first version of LUnix was released in 1993, the current version 0.21 dates from 2004. Amongst others, it supports preemptive multitasking, unix pipes, a variety of protocols like TCP/IP, SLIP, PPP and RS232, dynamic memory management and virtual consoles. It contains a web server and clients for telnet, POP3 and FTP and can act as a terminal or terminal server over RS232.
[/size]LUnix was developed by Daniel Dallmann and contributed by Ilker Ficicilar, Stefan Haubenthal and Paul Gardner-Stephen in late 1990s. The first generation LUnix had support for faster RS232 via clever software tricks, 80 column VIC and VDC screen support, PS2 keyboard support, and small set of standard Unix commands. It is possible with this first distribution to attach two keyboards and two monitors and one RS232 terminal to set up a 3 simultaneous, multitasking sessions on a C128.

Better to have a terminal version or FutureOS. (no GUI)
That will be more useful and optimized for our CPC, than a poor "linux" port.

Just a little question (that may looks like trolling) , where is the interest ? to get an OS that comes with new fonctionnalities or just for the pleasure to get itself ?
"NOP" is the perfect program : short , fast and (known) bug free

If it's KDE, will it have all the snazzy visual stuff that's going on?

Since I installed Windows 11 on my CPC 464, I didn't need Unix.
So I uninstalled Unix for CPC.

Sorry guys.

Yeah it has to have the 3D Cube desktop![nb]This is the only thread, that if TFM comes along and demands that the CPC needs 4MB, I'm going to agree with him :D [/nb]

I've called for some medical help to you. You clearly need SOME kind of pills.
