High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Fluxbuntu is a lightweight Linux distribution which uses the Fluxbox window manager and is based on Ubuntu. By contrast, Ubuntu uses the Unity (previously GNOME) desktop environment, Kubuntu uses KDE, and Xubuntu uses Xfce, all of which are somewhat more demanding of computer memory and resources. Fluxbuntu is designed to be versatile, while minimizing the need of system resources (similar to Lubuntu, which uses LXDE). Although its website states that the project is still active, as there have been no updates since 2007, the project is considered to be dormant. (The opening page of the website has a Last-Modified date of November 2008.)
