UHU-Linux is the leading distribution of Linux in Hungary.

UHU-Linux is the leading distribution of Linux in Hungary. It is primarily intended for Hungarian users, thus special care is taken to support the Hungarian language as much as possible. Ease of installation and sane default settings both help new users of Linux and make veterans feel comfortable.

Usability as the main goal involves having all the cutting-edge yet stable releases of Open Source packages, with dpkg as the package manager. Development is completely open and everyone is invited to join.

Updates (via Distrowatch):

UHU-Linux is an independently developed distribution intended primarily for the Hungarian speaking market. Version 2.2, the project's first stable release in 2.5 years, was announced yesterday. Some of the more interesting changes and features in this release include: the DVD image is now a live environment with option to install it to a hard disk, including any changes made during the use of the live DVD; NetworkManager 0.8 with easy set up of mobile networking and Bluetooth connections; the latest versions of Thunderbird and Firefox with Java and Flash support, as well as the increasingly popular Google Chromium browser; support for installation from USB storage devices; major components - Linux kernel 2.6.33.3, GCC 4.4.2, glibc 2.11.2, GNOME 2.28, KDE 4.4.5, Xfce 4.6.2, OpenOffice.org 3.2.1.

For full details please read the release announcement on the distribution's home page (in Hungarian).
