Linux Deepin 12.12 video preview

lihongwu · 12-25-2012, 01:54 AM

We have taken a preview of Linux Deepin 12.12 and put it on YouTube, in which you can see what Linux Deepin 12.12 will be like. The video demonstrates the new desktop environment and new versions of Deepin’s featured applications.

The video above only helps you catch a brief glimpse of what is new. We hope you find it exciting. Another thing to mention is that the issue with the dock where it is blocked by the windows are already fixed.

And… Hey! There is still much more to expect. ;-)

Yours truly
Linux Deepin Team

I like how the player comes with different skins.
The application icons look nice too!

Not yet, but a beta version will be out soon for testing. The developers and designers still have much to polish up.

Ok, thanks but I'll wait a little while.

In the video I noticed that the text was in Chinese. Linux Deepin does come in English as well right?
I'm assuming but it's not safe to assume sometimes.

Yes, it's perfectly safe that you assume it comes in English.
And As long as they do not bother to have me improve the translations (with my poor knowledge in the English language), I will try to make the user experience of the English version at least equivalent to the Chinese one, as I also set my locale to English for daily use and therefore am directly affected.

LOL! Thanks lihongwu!

I hope in your case they don't bother you with the translation-

I'm looking forward to trying this new distro! It looks great!

Probably no point asking for news about the release date or a progress report but any idea what the ugrade process from the current version will be?

It takes a while sometimes for the Linux Deepin Developers to get (if any) bug fixes worked out.

You could look in the Linux Deepin forum and see if the 'upgrade' has been documented or mentioned-

Looks like the 12.12 BETA has (finally) been released, in Chinese only (so far).

Actually It was an alpha one. And lots of things still have to be done before we can move to the next version, e.g beta, for testing.
Thanks for your support and thanks to all those who have waited so long for the new version of Linux Deepin.

Yes, it has now been released and is in Chinese so far, regrettably.

Really like 12.06 so I'm looking forward to the final version of 12.12
