In order to reduce the large amount of GB needed to pre install all of the games, we have created an install script that runs directly from the desktop. Some games such as Torcs and Flight Gears are already installed as default, the rest can be installed by clicking on the install script. This option was taken when we realised that a full installation of all games would have taken almost 10GB in total. Of course we did not want to have such an enourmous distro tu run, additionaly it would have been impossible for average bandwidth users to download a file of this scale. The current version of linpais stands on less than 2GB.

Linpais is a distro made from Ubuntu and its core is deep linked with Ubuntu, all updates suggested from Ubuntu site are still running and suggested as for security and to better optimise your system

Linpais will still run as normal, however, when a new version of Ubuntu will became available to the public, the update manager will offer to upgrade your system to the latest Ubuntu. You can still use Linpais without any changes and get the usual updates (as per Ubuntu 9.10), or you can upgrade your system to the latest Ubuntu. Please note that the online upgrade will overwrite your current system, thus your linpais will be overwriten by the new Ubuntu.

If your computer is not powerful enough to run visual effects, you can turn them off and will still have a usable Ubuntu desktop. Visual effects are turned on by default if you have a graphics card which is supported.
