distribution release , based on the openSUSE package base and focusing on optimizing the desktop as well as fine details like high-quality font rendering. The distribution comes in two versions: Static, based on openSUSE releases, and Rolling, based on the Tumbleweed repositories. The size is about 1.3 GB.
Notable features of the distribution include the availability of downloadable live builds that support both live usage and installation on permanent storage devices. The builds are configured with the Cinnamon, Mate, Xfce, LXQt, GNOME, and KDE Plasma desktops. Each environment comes with optimal default settings (for instance, font settings are optimized) tailored to each desktop, along with a carefully selected set of applications.
The main set includes ready-to-use proprietary multimedia codecs, and additional proprietary applications are available through repositories, including Google and Skype repositories. The package is used for power consumption optimization. Priority is given to installing packages from the repository, as some openSUSE packages have restrictions related to patented technologies. By default, recommended packages are not installed after the initial setup. There is an option to remove packages along with their entire dependency chain (so that after an update the package is not automatically reinstalled as a dependency).
The new version has been updated to the package base . The Calamares installer has been updated to release 3.2.15. The desktops have been updated to
Cinnamon 4.4.8, Mate 1.24.0, KDE Plasma 5.18.5 / KDE applications 20.04, Xfce 4.14, GNOME 3.34.4, and LXQt 0.14.1. Additionally, a 'BareBones' build has been prepared with the IceWM window manager, providing a minimal environment for experimenting and customizing your desktop.
