It has been ages since I updated this webpage, not Ultamatix however; it has "grown" with in Ultimate Edition. I felt why should other users suffer and not have access to this amazing tool. There are huge advancements over the old Ultamatix 1.8.0-3, please view the thread for current changelog.
What is Ultamatix? I would like to start off by saying the software if you so choose to install is based off "Automatix", but sold out to pioneer linux so no such thing anymore. I picked up the source and began continuing development. I love GPL.

I am going to be forthcoming in letting you know in my opinion is flawless in both Ultimate Edition 1.8+ x86 / x64 as well as the Gamers edition of the same, also x86 based. Some of my Admins / mods & beta testers have tested it, but not all computers are the same. Please read the next line...
This is intended to run on Ultimate Edition 1.8+ / UBUNTU 8.04+ / Debian (untested).
It does have the following O/S support, but please use at your own risk Gutsy, Hardy, Intrepid, Jaunty (fully tested), Sid, Karmic (only initially tested). It has now been installed on a freshly installed Jaunty Jackalope (amd64 & x86), Ultamatix installed 138 of the 143 applications / games listed below, the other 5 that remained specify (32 bit only), or are broken and have bugs filed against them. Please have a look at the screencast below & note that it is the un-install tab that I display.
Ultamatix 1.8.0-7 (after 138 programs have installed):
Unlike previous versions of Ultamatix the -7 release gets about 99% of it's software from repositories (also now grabs GPG keys), this helps prevent breakage. I would like your input both good as well as bad, this helps me to make the best O/S as well as software that I can. Please feel free to post comments, opinions or suggestions on our forum.
What it is:
Software installation where it does not exist (repo / license / 0 user knowledge required)
Choice of free software or otherwise.
Automation of the above
Choice of what you would like installed (you build your own O/S)
What it is not:
Software that accepts the license agreement for you.
Older Screenshots & Screencasts:Sorry for the poor quality, bottom one was recorded at 1680 X 1050, this will really tax a computer 4 cores or not, actually it is harder on the video cards then the processors.
You can also install it as well as many other applications / games using our repository. A special thanks to goes to my admin, mods & beta testers for putting up with me and assisting in beta testing.
