Welcome to the LXDE edition of Bridge Linux, previously known as Bridge Linux Light. It is an open source and freely distributed operating system whose main target are old and semi-old computers, as it uses the lightweight LXDE desktop environment and Arch Linux distribution.
Availability, boot options, supported platforms
Bridge Linux LXDE is the smallest edition of this Arch Linux based operating system, which can be easily downloaded from Softoware as Live CD ISO images for both 32-bit (i686) and 64-bit (x86_64) hardware platforms. They must be written to USB flash drives or blank CD discs in order to boot them from the BIOS of the PC.Among the boot options provided by the Live CDs, we can mention the ability to start the live environment with default options or by forcing the VESA framebuffer and using the nomodeset option in case the first entry does not recognizes your graphics card and won't boot. In addition, you can view details about your computer's hardware components, run a memory (RAM) test, reboot or shutdown the machine.
