Lineox Enterprise Linux
Lineox Enterprise Linux was based on source RPM packages from which Red Hat Enterprise Linux was compiled. Lineox Enterprise Linux contains all programs included in various Red Hat Enterprise Linux variations (Advanced Server (AS), Entry/Mid Server (ES), and Workstation (WS)). It also contains programs included in separately sold Red Hat Cluster Suite and Red Hat Developer Suite. Lineox has removed and replaced all files of Red Hat Enterprise Linux which have restrictive copyright by Red Hat, Inc. Lineox has also tried to remove all user-visible references to Red Hat in Lineox Enterprise Linux. The most notable difference between Lineox Enterprise Linux and Red Hat Enterprise Linux was the support options provided by Red Hat, Inc. Lineox, Inc. does not provide any support for Lineox Enterprise Linux with the base product. Lineox, Inc. however plans to provide binary package updates for Lineox Enterprise Linux as long as Red Hat, Inc. provides updates for Red Hat Enterprise Linux in source package format.

Simon Quigley has announced the release of Lubuntu 22.10, the latest version of the project's official Ubuntu flavour with LXQt as the preferred desktop environment: "Thanks to all the hard work from our contributors, Lubuntu 22.10 has been released. With the code name 'Kinetic Kudu', Lubuntu 22.10 is the 23rd release of Lubuntu and the ninth release of Lubuntu with LXQt as the default desktop environment. Known issues and notable changes: a bug in LXQt results in duplicate menu entries for the Calamares installer; Lubuntu uses the Calamares system installer in place of the Ubiquity installer that most other flavors use; while we are ensuring 22.04 LTS' Calamares follows the upstream LTS cycle, we decided to get ahead of the curve by shipping Calamares 3.3 Alpha 2 in 22.10; an ongoing concern within the Ubuntu and Lubuntu communities has been the increased startup times for the Firefox web browser due to using the Snap package format instead of the traditional Debian-based package format used for the rest of the system...."

Distribution Release: Lubuntu 23.04 |
 |
The Lubuntu team have announced the launch of Lubuntu 23.04, an interm release which will receive nine months of updates. Several of the changes in version 23.04 include the visual look and effects offered by the LXQt desktop: "Lubuntu previously used the PulseAudio audio system to provide rich audio functionality to our users. However, recently Ubuntu and its flavors have been gradually shifting to using the PipeWire audio server in place of PulseAudio. PipeWire offers several advantages over PulseAudio, including improved Bluetooth support, and more powerful management features for complex audio-related workloads. In order to offer these improved features to our users, Lubuntu has replaced the PulseAudio audio system with PipeWire in Lubuntu 23.04. Since Lubuntu 20.04, the default screensaver has been 'Flurry'. Due to reports of screensaver glitches on certain hardware, we have switched the default screensaver in Lubuntu to GL Matrix. This screensaver features a 3D “digital rain” effect that we have found to be aesthetically pleasing." Additional information is provided in the project's release announcement and in the release notes. Download: lubuntu-23.04-desktop-amd64.iso (2,956MB, SHA256, signature, torrent, pkglist). |

Distribution Release: Lubuntu 22.04 |
 |
Lubuntu is a community flavour of Ubuntu which features the LXQt desktop environment. The project's latest release, Lubuntu 22.04, is supported for three years and ships with LXQt 0.17.0. "You can find the following major applications and toolkits installed by default in this release: LXQt 0.17.0 – more information here.Qt 5.15.3. Mozilla Firefox will be shipped as a Snap package with version 98.0.2 and will receive updates throughout the support cycle of the release. The LibreOffice 7.3.2 suite. VLC 3.0.16, for viewing media and listening to music. Featherpad 1.0.1, for notes and code editing. Discover Software Center 5.24.4, for an easy, graphical way to install and update software. You can find a variety of other applications installed which aim to enhance your experience while staying out of the way of your normal workflow. Please note: The change of firefox to snap package, results in the browser being slower to start. It does not impact execution or subsequent runs during that session. The reason for this is the setting up of the confined environment in which snaps run, and decompress Squashfs, with privacy and security benefits. This is very noticeable on first run especially with live media." Additional information is provided in the project's release announcement.
