Trisquel GNU/Linux is a 100% libre Ubuntu-based Linux distribution. The project's latest release, version 11.0, is based on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and greatly expands compatibility with a wider range of CPU architectures. "New supported architectures. Following the addition of 32-bit ARM support in Trisquel 10, we now introduce support for 64-bit ARM and POWER architectures, to expand the options for hardware compatibility. d-i/Netinstall (also called debian-installer) is the text-mode installer for Trisquel, which allows for advanced and custom installations, often used for servers. After Ubuntu dropped support for this installation method, we stepped in to add any removed pieces and make it functional again, often from upstream Debian sources. Browser packaging: as Ubuntu continues to shift towards snap packaging, we took on the task of continuing to package key components such as Abrowser (our improved Firefox derivative) as a standard .deb package. Abrowser continues to bring a fully free browser that balances privacy and usability." Additional information is provided in the release announcement. Download (pkglist): trisquel_11.0_amd64.iso (2,951MB, SHA256, torrent, signature), trisquel-mini_11.0_amd64.iso (1,505MB, SHA256, signature, torrent), triskel_11.0_amd64.iso (2,285MB, SHA256, signature, torrent). |

If you are already using any version of Qubes 4.1 (including 4.1.0, 4.1.1, 4.1.2-rc1, and 4.1.2-rc2), then you should simply update normally (which includes upgrading any EOL templates you might have) in order to make your system effectively equivalent to this stable Qubes 4.1.2 release. No reinstallation or other special action is required. Qubes 4.1.2 includes numerous updates over the initial 4.1.0 release, in particular: all 4.1 dom0 updates to date; Fedora 37 template; USB keyboard support in the installer; kernel-latest available as a boot option when starting the installer."

NEW • Development Release: Fedora 38 Beta |
Rate this project

The Fedora project has published a beta snapshot of the distribution's upcoming Fedora 38 release. The new beta features GNOME 44, updated development tools, and strict compile flags to protect against common memory attacks. "Fedora 38 Workstation Beta includes GNOME 44. It’s currently in beta, with a final release expected at the end of March. GNOME 44 includes a lot of great improvements, including a new lock screen, a 'background apps' section on the quick menu, and improvements to accessibility settings. In addition, enabling third-party repositories now enables an unfiltered view of applications on Flathub. We always strive to bring new security features to users quickly. Packages are now built with stricter compiler flags that protect against buffer overflows. The rpm package manager uses a Sequoia-based OpenPGP parser instead of its own implementation. If you’re profiling applications, you’ll appreciate the frame pointers now built into official packages. This makes Fedora Linux a great platform for developers looking to improve Linux application performance." Additional information is provided in the Fedora Magazine release announcement and in the changeset document. Download (pkglist): Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-38_Beta-1.3.iso (1,967MB, SHA256, torrent), Fedora-Server-dvd-x86_64-38_Beta-1.3.iso (2,335MB, SHA256, torrent). |

Kali Linux is a Debian-based distribution with a collection of security and forensics tools. The project's latest release, Kali Linux 2023.1, introduces a few new features, including defensive (purple) tools and Python virtual environments. "There are times where apt may not work for you, such as if there is not yet a Debian package or what is in our network repository is outdated. Look, we get it. You may need the latest version of a Python library and thus pulling from Pip gives you what you are after. However, there are then repercussions of files getting added / updated / removed which either package manager is not aware of. Things may not break straight away, but they might. An example could be when either package manager has an update of the module, or you try and install a module using the other ecosystem. Enter venv (Virtual environment). This creates an area which is completely independent." Details on these and other changes can be found in the project's release announcement. Download (SHA256): kali-linux-2023.1-installer-amd64.iso (3,696MB, torrent, pkglist), kali-linux-2023.1-live-amd64.iso (3,981MB, torrent). |
