Distribution Release: Gnoppix AI Linux 25_10 |
 |
Andreas Mueller has announced the release of Gnoppix AI Linux 25_10, which features the KDE Plasma desktop. While most of the project's previous releases were derived from Debian's "Testing" branch, this one is based on Debian 13 and comes with a redesigned Welcome Screen: "We're thrilled to announce the stable release of Gnoppix KDE 25.10, built atop Debian 'Trixie'. This release focuses heavily on performance and privacy, while also introducing a major overhaul to the user experience and new community features. We've tackled the issue of needing manual tweaks for optimal performance head-on. We've incorporated system and performance patches directly into the operating system. You no longer need to manually install or apply these critical fixes they are now included by default. Enhanced gaming experience - this change significantly impacts gaming. With Steam and Lutris, many Windows games now run exceptionally well, with some titles even performing faster than they do on Windows. The Welcome Screen has been completely redesigned with a modern look and feel, transforming it into a central Control and Command Center." Read the rest of the release announcement for more details.
