Welcome to the DNALinux Forum

The todays downtime is hosting fault, since the webhosting company site is also down.
Sorry for the inconvenience!

It seems it was a short (less than 5 hours) outage. Now the site is working again.
Check it up at: DNALinux.com

Where can we find DNALinux screenshots ?!!!

In the Freashmeat page there is a screenshot, see here:http://freshmeat.net/projects/dnalinux/
but is from 0.3. The current 0.33 is a little bit different.
Most included bioinformatics apps are text based, so I don't see the screenshot as a big deal (anyway I will included screenshots in the home page).

What kind of bioinformatics packages are available? And do some package licensing depend upon academic use ie. phred/phrap?
I had a look on the website but it only listed a few examples, it would be nice to see a complete list.

I've just updated the FAQ to show all bioinformatics software included.
Please go to: DNALinux , go to FAQ, General Questions and then select: "Which Bioinformatics software is included in DNALinux?".
If you need a software not included there, just tell me. If licence doesn't allow redistribution, I ask to the author.

What is DNALinux? Monday, 12 May 2003 DNALinux is a Linux distribution with bioinformatics software pre-installed. Last Updated ( Tuesday, 25 May 2004 )

Hmmm... that's pretty interesting, I wonder if that's going to usher in a new wave of Linux distributions designed to work off CD. Can you imagine ChemLinux or maybe PhysLinux ?

GeeWiz, better stop before I give away some really really cool ideas!

Some possible bioinformatics software that could be included:

Perl
BioPerl
BioPython
Pise
tgicl
sputnik


What are other people's thoughts/suggestions?

I think we should iniciate a new thread with this subject (no apps to be included).

Regarding your ideas, here is what I have to say:

<b>Perl</b>
<b>Python</b>

Will be in 0.37

<b>BioPerl
BioPython</b>

I am working to include them

<b>
Pise
tgicl
sputnik
</b>

I will have to check. From them, I only know Pise.
