Here's another one, strongly linked to numerical and quantitative
analysis:
 	
The Quantian Scientific Computing Environment
A Knoppix / Debian variant tailored to numerical and quantitative analysis. 

http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/quantian.html

inside: 
-Octave, with add-on packages octave-forge, octave-sp, octave-epstk, matwrap
and Inline::Octave;
...and much more.

I'm very happy to see all these linux-based solutions to numerical
problems/courses/needs!

Cheers,

						Emanuele
