SalentOS is an Ubuntu-based GNU/Linux distribution that uses Openbox as window manager. SalentOS has been designed to embrace lightness (hence the choice of Openbox), but at the same time it maintains the completeness and features of Ubuntu. The system includes elements of GNOME and Xfce desktops. A separate edition featuring the Qt-based Razor-qt desktop environment is also provided.
Gabriele Martina has announced the availability of a new version of SalentOS, a lightweight Debian-based distribution featuring the Openbox window manager. The new version, SalentOS 2.0 (code name "Neriton"), is based on Debian 9 "Stretch" and features UEFI support (though not support for Secure Boot). "With great pleasure, the development team is pleased to announce the release of SalentOS 2.0 Neriton.

The main innovations: Debian Base Stable (Stretch); Linux kernel updated to version 4.9; compatibility with the new UEFI standard - no Secure Boot; updated and optimized all system management tools (Styler, Yanima); introduced Dockbar (tint2); new wallpapers on-line verification system; optimized the first installation wizard; updated all major packages to their latest stable versions; minor bug fixes.
