PorteuX


Last Update: 2025-02-03 15:03 UTC


PorteuX is a Linux distribution based on Slackware Linux, inspired by Slax and Porteus and available to the public for free. Its main goal is to be fast, small, portable (run from a thumb drive), modular and optionally immutable. It is pre-configured for basic usage, including lightweight applications for each one of the seven desktop environments (Cinnamon, GNOME, KDE Plasma, LXDE, LXQt, MATE and Xfce) available. No browser is included, but an app store is provided for downloading any of the most popular browsers, as well as other applications.

Popularity (hits per day): 12 months: 95 (117), 6 months: 41 (233), 3 months: 39 (248), 4 weeks: 38 (304), 1 week: 11 (909)

Average visitor rating: 9/10 from 2 review(s).

  • 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.

Great distro! It booted surprisingly fast, under 10 seconds on my VirtualBox. LXDE was running smoothly on my VirtualBox with only 2 GB of memory (maybe this is an overkill for such a light distro). Sadly, I can't install anything nor save my configuration, not even a browser. I have activated the devel and crippled from github, but the OS still can't write anything (maybe because it was set to Always Fresh as the default, and I just can't change it). As someone new in the linux world, I think I would have master it in a month or two. I thought that linux distros would be hard to use, but proteux definitely surpassed my expectations. I just tried it for a couple of days, can't say much about it; however, I was amazed on how small and easy it was to run.

Really nice distro. You can see the developers worked hard! Nice to see xfce 4.20 on it! Also booted suprisingly fast, probaly faster than alpine linux. Would definetly recomend! Ram usage was a little high, but guess thats just xfce 4.20's new features. Im not sure what they mean by minimal tho. Office was installed and there was also a gui app store(nice to see but not minimal). Also using it is a bit confusing compaired to other distros, like the package manager is different. Having a background with slackware will also help make using this distro better. Overall i would recomend, I only used it for a couple of minutes so don't take my review as gospel.
