DistroWatch.com: Drauger OS

Drauger OS


Last Update: 2025-05-20 13:43 UTC


Drauger OS is an Ubuntu-based Linux desktop gaming distribution that ships with many modifications and optimizations over stock Ubuntu; these are intended to improve gaming performance and the gaming experience. From simple changes such as swapping GNOME out for KDE Plasma and using a dark Qt theme by default, to more complex changes such as using a kernel compiled in-house and replacing PulseAudio with Pipewire. Drauger OS is built from the ground up with a focus on performance.

Popularity (hits per day): 12 months: 287 (5), 6 months: 286 (10), 3 months: 285 (20), 4 weeks: 150 (63), 1 week: 142 (53)

Table Notes and Explanations

(Please refer to the table below.)
  • Select view:
  • To compare the software in this project to the software available in other distributions, please see our Compare Packages page.
  • Notes: In case where multiple versions of a package are shipped with a distribution, only the default version appears in the table. 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.

I used to used Ubuntu LTS for almost a decade. But something broke and my Steam wouldn't load correctly. Instead of reloading Ubuntu LTS, I tried Drauger OS. And my games work, and my non-games work. I mostly use Firefox and LibreOffice. But all my other apps are also operating well.

In addition, the community is great. There are a bunch of people on the discord to bounce ideas off of and ask questions.

This is the only OS on my desktop machine. I'm running an old AMD Ryzen 5 3400G with a Radeon RX 6650 XT.
