'''siduction''' is a desktop-oriented [[operating system]] based on the "unstable" branch of [[Debian]], which uses the codename ''Sid''. It was forked from [[aptosid]] in September 2011. The distribution consists of a [[Live CD]]/[[Live DVD]] (bootable CD-ROM or DVD) for the [[x86]] architecture installable to a hard drive through a graphical installer. The goal of the distribution is to provide a stable, easy-to-use and cutting-edge [[Free and open source software|free and open source]] operating system.<ref name='linux.com 2008 article'>{{Cite web| url = http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/149400 | title = Sidux grows on you | accessdate = 2010-05-27 | last = Linton | first = Susan | date = 2008-10-08 | publisher = [[Linux.com]] | quote = The developers strive for an easy-to-install and easy-to-use modern Debian derivative| archiveurl= http://web.archive.org/web/20100514102550/http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/149400?| archivedate= 14 May 2010 <!--DASHBot-->| deadurl= no}}</ref> The Siduction project will maintain regular releases, has an open development model, and is known for it's friendly relationship with its user community.
==Features==
Siduction is based on Debian's most modern branch, sid. It includes a manual<ref name='sidu-manual'>{{Cite web| url = http://manual.siduction.org | title = The Siduction Operating System Manual | accessdate = 2013-12-25 | publisher = [http://manual.siduction.org siduction.org]}}</ref> and a collection of tools and scripts to make desktop administration easier.
One of siduction's more notable features, unlike most other Linux distributions, it utilizes a true [[Rolling release|'rolling-release-cycle']], and thus continues to remain current. Users can update all of the system's packages via the command 'apt-get dist-upgrade'. Through this model, there should not, in theory, ever be a need to overwrite an siduction system by installing an entirely new version. Other Linux distributions that use the rolling release model include [[Arch Linux]], [[PCLinuxOS]] or [[Gentoo Linux|Gentoo]].
===Live media===
Each release comes as a [[Live CD]] or [[Live DVD]], booting to a graphical desktop without installation. On the Live CD a USB installer is provided to create a [[Live USB]] system, but the [[Live USB]] can be created easily from the [[Live CD]] ISO file.<ref name='liveusb'>{{Cite web| title = How to make a Live USB from the Live CD ISO file | date = 2013-12-25 | url = http://manual.siduction.org/hd-ins-opts-oos | author = Siduction user manual }}</ref>
===Installer===
The graphical [[Installation (computer programs)|installation]] can be started directly from live mode, without rebooting. siduction can be installed to USB-connected hard disks and [[USB flash drive]]s, as well as to internal [[Hard disk drive|hard disks]].
===Updates===
Once siduction is installed, it can be kept up-to-date with updates from the Debian Sid and siduction repositories. Updates are typically run from command line using [[apt-get]]. Because post and pre install scripts in the Debian packages may restart your display manager during updates and cause conflicts with running userspace applications, it is recommended that users upgrade their system outside of X (i.e. while NOT running the 'GUI'). This is achieved by applying all updates at 'run-level 3'.
Warnings regarding upgrades are posted on the main website and in the [http://forum.siduction.org/index.php?board=22.0 Upgrade Warnings] section of the forum.
===Support===
* The IRC channels #siduction and #siduction-de at irc.oftc.net, port 6667 gives fastest response.
* The [http://forum.siduction.org forum] is also a good place for questions and talks, however the reaction time is longer, but it is a good source for searches.
===Multilingual===
The default language of siduction releases is English, however German, English (GB), Italian, Polish, Portuguese (BR) and Romanian localisations ([[i18n]] support) are also provided within the DVD, selectable at boot prompt.
===Packages===
Siduction comes with a selection of programs, covering system rescue and web surfing. The complete package list is available for each release in the project download directory,<ref name='download directory'>{{Cite web| url = http://ftp.spline.de/pub/siduction/iso/ | title = siduction release download page | accessdate = 2013-12-25 }}</ref> named <release-name>.manifest.

==Name==
The part ''sid'' of the distribution name is derived from Debian Sid (named after the [[List_of_Toy_Story_characters#Sid_Phillips|Sid Phillips]] character in [[Toy Story]]). $foo bar baz ... The names of the releases are taken from famous rocksongs.
==Software==
Siduction releases contain only [[free software]] as defined by the [[Debian Free Software Guidelines|Debian Free Software Guidelines (DFSG)]]. To aid proof of compliance, a monolithic tarball containing the source for all packages used in the release is provided alongside the Live CD ISOs.<ref>{{Cite web| url=http://debian.tu-bs.de/project/aptosid/release/ | title=release-source-repository}}</ref>
Access to non-free software such as codecs, plugins and wlan firmware can be enabled by configuring contrib and non-free Debian repositories in /etc/apt/sources.list.d
In keeping with the evolutionary nature of the "unstable" Debian branch, siduction releases do not provide an upgrade path from previous release versions. Rather, once installed, incremental updates are performed via regular "dist-upgrades". The idea of a "Release" is instead to improve Live CD hardware support, performance, flexibility and reliability, built from the current debian unstable repository.<ref>http://news.siduction.org</ref>
==System recommendations==
Siduction is supported for the [[P6 (microarchitecture)|i686]] computer architecture and the [[amd64]] computer architecture.
