A distro-tan is a rendition of a distribution of Linux. A distribution is a compilation of software around the Linux-kernel, as well as an installer and a package management system to install/uninstall software. There are countless different Linux-distributions, so the work is nowhere near being finished. Generally, most distro-tans look similar due to being based on the same kernel, but there are some remarkable exceptions. Nearly all of them carry a spear like the original [[Linux]]-tan. |

Complete list of distro-tans and their designers: |
|||
* Damnsmalllinux-tan: She is tiny, tiny enough to be able to use a toothpick instead of a spear. She has a backpack, which looks like a penguin. She has a tendency to be where no one expects her to be. |
|||
* [[Arch Linux]]-tan (Juzo-kun's design) |
|||
* [[Lindows]]-tan: The original designer of her is unknown, she is drawn as girl with a white T-shirt or dress. Her hair changes from green to blue on the way downwards. |
|||
* [[Barbie Linux]]-tan (Aurora Borealis's design) |
|||
* NepaLinux-tan: an asian girl with dark skin and short hair, who only speaks Nepali. her spear has instead of the three banners a nepalese flag. |
|||
* [[Damn Small Linux]]-tan (Aurora Borealis's design) |
|||
* RedHat-tan and Fedora-tan: These designs seem only to differ in the colors in order to show the similarity of redHat Linux and Fedora Core. |
|||
* [[Debian]]-tan (Juzo-kun's design) |
|||
* SuSE-tan: Despite being a chamleongirl, she does not change her color. Her clothes and her tail are in the green of Geeko, the SuSE-mascot. |
|||
* [[Fedora]]-tan (three different designs exist) |
|||
* [[Ubuntu]]-tan: The friendly distro-tan is one of the few colored OS-tans due to her African heritage. |

* [[Gentoo]]-tan (Juzo-kun's design) |
|||
* [[Knoppix]]-tan (2 different designs exist) |

* [[Lindows|Linspire]]-tan (she is still called Lindows-tan despite the revised name of the distribution; many different renditions exist, but all conform to the original design) |

A distro-tan is a rendition of a distribution of Linux. A distribution is a compilation of software around the Linux-kernel, as well as an installer and a package management system to install/uninstall software. There are countless different Linux-distributions, so the work is nowhere near being finished. Generally, most distro-tans look similar due to being based on the same kernel, but there are some remarkable exceptions. Nearly all of them carry a spear like the original Linux-tan.
Complete list of distro-tans and their designers:
- Arch Linux-tan (Juzo-kun's design)
- Barbie Linux-tan (Aurora Borealis's design)
- Damn Small Linux-tan (Aurora Borealis's design)
- Debian-tan (Juzo-kun's design)
- Fedora-tan (three different designs exist)
- Gentoo-tan (Juzo-kun's design)
- Knoppix-tan (2 different designs exist)
- Linspire-tan (she is still called Lindows-tan despite the revised name of the distribution; many different renditions exist, but all conform to the original design)
- Mandriva-tan (Juzo-kun's design and Aurora Borealis's design exist)
- NepaLinux-tan (Kami-Tux's design)
- RedHat-tan (three different designs exist)
- Slackware-tan (three different designs exist)
- SuSE-tan (various designs exist, but differ little)
- Tinfoil Hat Linux-tan (Aurora Borealis's design)
- Ubuntu-tan [two different designs exist]
