The update to the Linux distribution "Alt Workstation K 10.2" is available, offering a KDE desktop environment aimed at a wide range of users both in the office and at home. The distribution can also be part of an Active Directory infrastructure (domain authentication, access to file resources and printing resources available). The build is prepared for the x86_64 architecture and is based on the ALT 10 platform. An installation ISO image and a build for Live mode are available for download.
