For indication about the GNOME version, please check the "nautilus" and "gnome-shell" packages. The Apache web server is listed as "httpd" and the Linux kernel is listed as "linux". The KDE desktop is represented by the "plasma-desktop" package and the Xfce desktop by the "xfdesktop" package.
  • Colour scheme: green text = latest stable version, red text = development or beta version. The function determining beta versions is not 100% reliable due to a wide variety of versioning schemes.

1 gig of memory on 64 bit machine running XFCE is unusable. I changed to 4 GIg to get it operational. The documentation says 1 Gig of memory minimum but it did not work and no other apps or drivers where installed. I found the system ran sluggish on a virtual machine and I could not account for the reason since 4 Gig of memory was alotted for a default install.

-It claims to security concsious but no option to verify the operating system from the menu

-I would expect a secure OS to omitt applications that are not required for security purposes or non essential like spottify

-I tried to run Lutris after install and an error came up stating it was missing libraries

-The menu system has a desktop at the bottom which is similiar to Mac's and it places weather information on the top menu which is an issue as it must know your location.

The OS is lightning fast and packed with a range of applications, from an office suite to an image editor. The user interface is intuitive and quite easy to navigate. Gnoppix is an excellent choice for both those just getting started with Linux and long-time users. It's reliable, secure, and has plenty of features to keep us users happy. All in all, Gnoppix 23.7 is a great operating system that provides users with plenty of features, and is a great choice for both new and experienced users. Last no least I love the Opensource AI Module. Thank you very much for it!
