gNewSense is derived from Ubuntu, and thus has most of the same functionality. There are a number of differences though.

• Firmware removed from kernel in main*
• Builder, a tool to produce a distribution
• Restricted removed
• Ubuntu logos replaced
• Universe enabled by default
• emacs, bsdgames, nethack and build-essential part of the default install

Note our goal is to produce a fully free distribution, not to have as many features as possible.

*At the time of the 1.0 release this was 119 files and the debian/firmware directory
