ExTiX is a distribution in the Debian family which offers alterative desktop environments. The project's latest release, ExTiX 24.8, is based on deepin 23. "New functions etc. in ExTiX 24.8 'Deepin': 1. VirtualBox Guest Additions are not pre-installed. No real need for them since you can run ExTiX in full screen in VirtualBox by just changing the screen resolution. 2. You can run ExTiX from RAM. Use boot alternative 2 (load to RAM) or Advanced. A wonderful way to run Linux if you have enough RAM. Everything will be super fast. When ExTiX has booted up you can remove the DVD or USB stick. 3. You can use Deepin Installer as an alternative to Refracta Installer. Use Deepin Installer preferable on UEFI computers if you want/need to install or reinstall GRUB. 4. I have installed Google Chrome 127.0.6533.119-1 as a replacement for Deepin's Browser, which suddenly can be in Chinese. 5. I've added Synaptic Package Manager. A must I think. Watch a screenshot when Synaptic is running. 6. You can watch Netflix while running Google Chrome...." Additional details can be found in the project's release announcement.

RebeccaBlackOS is a Debian-based live distribution which can be used to run Wayland desktop sessions. The project's latest release features a number of upgrades, including swapping out Qt5 for Qt6 and dropping support for 32-bit processors. "New in these ISOs since 2023-01-16: Only 64-bit ISOs are made as QtWebEngine refuses to build in 32 bit chroots. Config files in packages built by checkinstall are correctly marked as config files. Files from the build process are all part of packages, and are not ophaned. The number of potential file conflicts with unintalled packages from the tier 1 Debian repo has been vastly reduced. The few that remain are properly handled by dpkg-divert. Linux 6.10 is built, and drm_panic is enabled. The ttynull driver is enabled. Linux is patched directly to use /dev/ttynull as the default console device. This allows systemd to correctly log to /dev/console. The tier 1 packages are now Debian Bookworm. Qt5 is now removed in favor of Qt6." Additional information can be found in the project's release notes. Download (MD5): RebeccaBlackOS_amd64.iso (1,582MB, pkglist). |

NEW • Distribution Release: IPFire 2.29 Core 187 |
Rate this project
|
IPFire is a Linux-based operating system for firewalls. The project focuses on easy set-up and configuration. The project's latest release introduces an extra layer of protection against denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. "Since IPFire is very commonly deployed in data centres where denial-of-service attacks happen on a regular basis, we now have added better protection against those kinds of attacks. Formerly, the system protected itself rather well against (D)DoS attacks, but this was only limited if TCP connections terminated at the firewall itself like for reverse proxies, etc. Now, IPFire can use TCP SYN cookies to protect infrastructure behind it better against SYN flood attacks. This is especially useful in high-bandwidth scenarios and cloud deployments and can be activated with only one checkbox separately for each firewall rule." Additional information is provided in the project's release announcement. Download (pkglist): ipfire-2.29-core187-x86_64.iso (421MB), ipfire-2.29-core187-x86_64.img.xz (356MB). |
