当我刚开始在这里写作时，我介绍了一个 [基督徒的 Linux 发行版](https://itsfoss.com/computers-christians-linux/)，距离现在已经有 6 个年头了，让我们来速览一下这个项目在 6 年的时间里都有哪些变化吧。


### 名字变了，性质也变了


当我们第一次碰到 [Computers4Christians](https://computers4christians.org/)，他们是一个基督教团体，通过安装 Linux 系统来翻新旧电脑，并把它们捐赠给当地社区。他们大约捐赠了 1000 台翻新的旧电脑。该团体基于 Lubuntu 定制了自己的 Linux 版本，名字叫 “Computers4Christians Linux Project”。


今天，Computers4Christians 已经不再捐赠翻新的旧电脑了。取而代之的是，这三个开发者正在专注于开发重命名的 [C4C Ubuntu](https://computers4christians.org/C4C.html)。


当我问他们为什么决定要继续开发这个发行版时，他们回答说：



> 
> 我们希望引导那些不信奉上帝的人与耶稣·基督建立真正的联系，并借此发展一些信徒。任何人都可以，在几乎任何电脑上，下载、运行临场镜像或者安装我们的 Linux 发行版。C4C Ubuntu 用户可以通过多个版本的圣经、基督教教义、每日灵修、基督教视频和游戏等方式聆听上帝的教诲。我们祈祷每一次的下载、运行和安装 C4C Ubuntu 镜像，都能帮助用户走向基督，或是更接近上帝。“向软弱的人，我就作软弱的人，为要得软弱的人；向甚么样的人，我就作甚么样的人。无论如何总要救些人。” —— 哥林多前书 9:22（网络）

### C4C Ubuntu 中都有什么？


当前版本的 C4C Ubuntu 基于最新的 Ubuntu LTS（20.04.4）构建。它使用 Xfce 桌面环境代替了 GNOME 桌面环境。我问他们为什么决定基于 Ubuntu 而不是 Lubuntu。开发者 Eric Bradshaw 告诉我说，他们之所以切换到 Ubuntu，是因为 Lubuntu 的 LXQt 桌面环境有缺陷，而且它在旧电脑上表现不佳。


以下是 C4C Ubuntu 预装的内容：


* 主要的常用软件：Catfish、FileZilla、GIMP、Gnash、GnuCash、Gufw、LibreOffice、OpenJDK Java 11、Pidgin、Pinta、Synaptic、Thunderbird 和 VLC。
* 与基督教或圣经相关的软件和媒体：十二使徒问答和记忆游戏、圣经、圣经桌面版、8 个圣经知识游戏、10 个圣经经文迷宫探索游戏、Diatheke、117 个 Flash 圣经游戏、24 个有趣的圣经故事、Verse、Wide Margin、西福斯圣经指南、新信徒和门徒的阅读材料以及基督教视频。
* 圣经：有声圣经（WEB）、AKJV、ASV、BBE、ERV、KJV、NHEB 和 WEB。注释：MHC、NETnotesfree、Personal 和 TFG。每日灵修：DBD 和 SME。词典：MLStrong、Robinson、StrongsGreek 和 StrongsHebrew。通用书籍：MollColossions 和 Pilgram。地图：ABSMaps、eBibleTeacherMaps、EpiphanyMaps、HistMidEast、KretzmannMaps、NETMaps、SmithBibleAtlas 和 SonLightFreeMaps。
* 我们的背景图片包括 150 张不同的“<ruby> 上帝的创造 <rt>  God's creation </rt></ruby>”，提供高清、标准和宽屏等尺寸大小。我们还提供快捷方式或启动器，你可以在“基督教”子菜单中找到它们，点击即可直达 37 个在线的基督教视频集、音乐视频集和 YouTube 频道。
* 预装的 Firefox 上有数百个手工挑选和分类的书签，不管你是要学习 Linux 还是要了解上帝，你都可以找到相关书签。有一个叫 “FoxFilter” 的家长控制扩展可以帮助过滤掉网页上不适当的内容，用户如果觉得有用，可以订阅它。
* C4C Ubuntu 团队引入了 [GNU Gnash 的 snap 包](https://snapcraft.io/gnash-raymii)，它是一个 Flash 播放器。有了它，用户就可以玩预装的 Flash 圣经游戏了。

When I started writing for It’s FOSS, I covered a [Christian Linux distro](https://itsfoss.com/computers-christians-linux/?ref=news.itsfoss.com). It’s been six years since I did so. Let’s take a quick look and see what has changed for the project in that amount of time.

## Changing Names and Priorities

When we first encountered [Computers4Christians](https://computers4christians.org/?ref=news.itsfoss.com), they were a Christian group that refurbished old computers by adding Linux and donated them to their local community. They gave away over 1,000 systems. The group created their own version of Linux, based on Lubuntu, named the Computers4Christians Linux Project.

Today, Computers4Christians no longer gives away refurbished computers. Instead, the three developers are focusing on developing the renamed [C4C Ubuntu](https://computers4christians.org/C4C.html?ref=news.itsfoss.com).

When I asked Computers4Christians why they decided to continue the distro, they said:

We seek to lead unbelievers to an authentic relationship with Jesus Christ and to nurture believers in discipleship. Anyone may download, run live and / or install our Christian Linux distribution on most any computer. The C4C Ubuntu user is exposed to God’s Word with several Bible versions, Christian teachings, daily devotionals, Christian videos, games, etc. We pray each C4C Ubuntu ISO downloaded, run live and/or installed will help bring the user(s) to Christ, or closer to God. To the weak I became as weak, that I might gain the weak. I have become all things to all men, that I may by all means save some. 1 Corinthians 9:22 (WEB)


## What Comes with C4C Ubuntu?

The current version of C4C Ubuntu is based on the latest Ubuntu LTS (20.04.4). They have the Xfce desktop environment installed instead of GNOME. I asked why they decided to use Ubuntu instead of Lubuntu as the base. Developer Eric Bradshaw told me that they switched because Lubuntu’s LXQt desktop environment was buggy and did not run well on older systems.

The following software comes pre-installed:

- Major Secular Software Catfish, FileZilla, GIMP, Gnash, GnuCash, Gufw, LibreOffice, OpenJDK Java 11, Pidgin, Pinta, Synaptic, Thunderbird and VLC.
- Christian/Biblical Software/Media: 12 Apostles Quiz and Memory Game, Bible, Bible Desktop, 8 Bible Knowledge Games, 10 Bible Verse Maze Quest Games, Diatheke, 117 Flash Bible Games, 24 items in Fun Bible Stuff, Verse, Wide Margin, Xiphos Bible Guide, new believer and discipleship material and Christian Videos.
- Bibles: Audio Bible (WEB), AKJV, ASV, BBE, ERV, KJV, NHEB, WEB. Commentaries: MHC, NETnotesfree, Personal, TFG. Daily Devotionals: DBD, SME. Dictionaries: MLStrong, Robinson, StrongsGreek, StrongsHebrew. General Books: MollColossions, Pilgram. Maps: ABSMaps, eBibleTeacherMaps, EpiphanyMaps, HistMidEast, KretzmannMaps, NETMaps, SmithBibleAtlas, SonLightFreeMaps.
- 150 different photographs of God’s creation comprise our collection of backdrops in HD, Standard and Widescreen aspect ratios. We also feature shortcuts/launchers from the Christian sub-menu to 37 online Christian video collections, music video collections and YouTube channels.
- Firefox is packed with hundreds of hand-picked and categorized bookmarks; from learning about Linux to learning about the Lord – it’s in there. And the parental control extension FoxFilter helps filter out inappropriate content on the web – users can subscribe if they find it useful.
- The C4C Ubuntu team included a
[snap of GNU Gnash](https://snapcraft.io/gnash-raymii?ref=news.itsfoss.com)flash player so that users can play the included Flash Bible games.

If you are interested in checking out C4C Ubuntu, you can find download links [here](https://computers4christians.org/Download.html?ref=news.itsfoss.com). The website has a lot of information about the previous version of their distro. The dev team is working to update the site.
