Desktop Light Linux (DeLi Linux for short) was a desktop Linux distribution for old PCs.
Until version 0.6.1 DeLi Linux was based on Slackware 7, using Linux 2.2.
DeLi Linux version 0.7 is a development from scratch with Linux 2.4.33.3 and no longer based on Slackware. The OS still used the Slackware package management, additionally there is a new port system based on CRUX. DeLi Linux is now based on uClibc instead of the GNU C Library. A port of OpenBSD's Korn shell is used as the default shell.
Version 0.8 introduced the Pacman package manager, and the 0.8 series will focus on internationalisation. Version 0.8.0 also switched the web browser to NetSurf and Skipstone, having previously been Konqueror Embedded, and Dillo before that.
DeLi Linux is pre-packaged with Abiword and Siag Office as the office suites. For the web browser, there are NetSurf and Skipstone. Included email clients are Mutt and Sylpheed. Window managers IceWM and Fluxbox are included. For editing, DeLi Linux offers e3, elvis and Beaver.
