KRUD
KRUD was a Linux Distribution which tracks Red Hat Linux. It was updated every month, and was available by CD and CD Subscription. KRUD was based on a complete Red Hat Linux install with all of the errata and updates included, plus extra packages added in by Kevin of tummy.com. We've been making KRUD since 1999. We do it because it saves us time, and it makes updating our systems easier. We'd like you to try it because it will do the same for you.

Bernhard Rosenkränzer has announced the release of OpenMandriva Lx 6.0, a major update of the project's independently-developed distribution that started as a fork of Mandriva Linux back in 2013. "The independent, community-controlled distribution, OpenMandriva Lx 6.0, a fixed-point release (as opposed to the rolling-release branch), is out right now. Main features: KDE Plasma 6 desktop by default (X11 and Wayland available); community spins featuring the latest desktop environments LXQt 2.2.0, GNOME 48.1, Xfce 4.20.1 and COSMIC 1.0 alpha; this also features the first official stable release of the OpenMandriva Server edition; if you run OMLx 6.0 inside VirtualBox, we strongly recommend using the X11 variant, since there are some known problems with Wayland on VirtualBox-emulated GPU; VirtualBox users may need to set VMSVGA controller to boot successfully; it works fine on most hardware and in QEMU with KVM...."

NEW • Distribution Release: CRUX 3.8 |
Rate this project
|
The CRUX distribution is a lightweight operating system with software added through a collection of application ports. CRUX 3.8 is the first release in about three years and features upgrades across the system. "CRUX 3.8 comes with a multilib toolchain which includes glibc 2.40, GCC 14.2.0 and Binutils 2.43.1. Kernel: Linux 6.12.23 (LTS). CRUX 3.8 ships with X.Org 7.7 and X.Org Server 21.1.16. CRUX 3.8 includes Wayland 1.23.1. Ports continue to default to X.Org, but Wayland can easily be installed along and run in either pure Wayland or Xwayland mode. If you decide to run a Wayland session, you will need to enable the 'contrib' collection and rebuild a few ports (for example xorg/mesa) to make it fully available. The ISO image is processed with isohybrid and is suitable for burning on a DVD or putting on a USB drive. UEFI support is available during installation with dosfstools, efibootmgr and grub2-efi/syslinux available during installation. Because all bootloaders are in our opt collection now, no bootloader is installed as a core port by default. To give the possibility to select a bootloader, we have added a new menu to setup. Important notes: glibc depends on libxcrypt now, we have added libxcrypt to our core repository; latest shadow depends on libbsd or libmd, we have added both to core...."

Amy Eickmeyer has announced the release of Edubuntu 25.04, the latest stable version of the project's official Ubuntu variant designed to bring the freedom of the Linux desktop and the vast library of open-source education software into the classroom. "We are glad to let you know that we've released Edubuntu 25.04 and we've replaced some of our apps that were no longer supported with similar applications so you can still get the same wonderful experience. New features: this release includes GNOME 48; for Qt-based/KDE apps, we now include themes via Kvantum, mostly as a workaround for the inability to change the accent color in those applications; this theme is based on GNOME's libadwaita, on which the default Ubuntu theme (Yaru) is based; GNOME Notes is dead upstream, for that reason, we have switched to the resurrected GNote; likewise, GNOME Dictionary is also dead upstream and we have replaced it with Artha, which is more of a thesaurus but does dictionary operations as well. Known issues: upon first boot, the system will reboot - this is normal and is the mechanism to set the logo for the login screen; Artha will not launch on a Wayland session." Here is the complete release announcement. Download: edubuntu-25.04-desktop-amd64.iso (5,935MB, SHA256, signature, torrent, pkglist). |

The Voyager project has released a new version of its Ubuntu-based distribution. The latest version, Voyager Live 25.04, is an interim release offering nine months of support. "I present you Voyager 25.04 final version. A 2-in-1 version with GNOME and Xfce desktops unified in a single distribution. Everything is presented in a colorful style, completely redesigned for this combination, the GNOME 48 desktop coupled with the lighter desktop of Xfce 4.20. In summary, two unified systems, GNOME and Xfce, light, fast, modern, fluid, secure and powerful in a hybrid environment for PCs and tablets. The two desktops are very distinct and their respective applications are mostly seamless, for either environment. Once installed, you can also remove GNOME or Xfce entirely. For the first time, we will be integrating ChatGPT, one AI Chatbot in the terminal without the need for API key in version 3.5, plus the ChatGPT 4th version mini GNOME extension and an option to remove AI."

Rudra Saraswat has announced the release of Ubuntu Unity 25.04, the latest update of this Ubuntu community edition that integrates the Ubuntu base system with the Unity desktop (an interface which was used by all standard Ubuntu releases prior to 2017 when it was dropped in favour of GNOME). The release announcement warns of a last-minute bug that affects computers with a BIOS firmware: "Ubuntu Unity 25.04 'Plucky Puffin' has now been released. A bug affecting Ubuntu Unity, Kubuntu and Lubuntu was discovered a few hours prior to the release wherein manual partitioning installs on BIOS systems result in unbootable installations. As it could not be fixed in time for the release, we recommend that you do not attempt a manual partitioning install if your computer only has a BIOS. Upgrades from Ubuntu Unity 24.10 will usually be enabled within a few weeks of the release, upon which you should receive a notification prompting you to upgrade to 25.04." The latest release of Ubuntu Unity is available for download from here: ubuntu-unity-25.04-desktop-amd64.iso (3,652MB, SHA256, signature, torrent, pkglist). |

The Ubuntu Budgie team has announced the release of Ubuntu Budgie 25.04. The interim release continues the project's transition to supporting Wayland. "The key focus for the team for this cycle has been the conversion of our distribution to a Wayland-based distribution. We have been working closely with our fellow Buddies Of Budgie maintainers. Excellent progress has been made towards this huge effort - we are almost there and we will be making available a 25.04 PPA specifically for our fantastic community to try and feedback. We will be shortly announcing the when-how-why in a dedicated blog post. Note - we intend to ship version 10.10 of budgie-desktop as a stable release for 25.10; this will be wayland only. For 25.04 budgie-desktop is X.Org Server-based and this PPA will give 25.04 users an easy way to try and give feedback. We are no longer including Thunderbird as part of our default application set. With many users now using webmail we have decided the choice of email clients should rightly be put into our community hands." The release announcement has additional information.
