Technical details

Damn Small Linux is a modern distribution of Linux, which is optimized for low size and designed to fit into 50 megabytes and only requires 8 MB of RAM and an 486 processor. A variant of Damn Small Linux, X-DSL has been ported to the Xbox.

Character details

Damn Small Linux-tan (aka: DSL-tan) is extremely small, with a height of only about 15 cm (6 inches) or even less. She often can be found where one does not expect it, such as sitting on another's head. Unlike most Distro-tans, who wield spears; DSL-tan resorts to wielding a toothpick. She appears as a tiny school girl with a black+white shirt and skirt, light brown hair and eyes, black cap, orange shoes and a backpack that looks like a penguin.

She is an extremely fast runner, high jumper and excellent spy and is rather timid because she's much smaller than everyone else but is comfortable around the diminutive OS-tans. She also cares deeply for her little brother, Damn Small Linux-kun and likes to be his mentor.

OSC Notes

She is a wanderer but bands together with the other Damn Small-tans: Damn Small BSD, Damn Small Linux-kun and Damn Small Solaris-tan.
