Mate Desktop environment – Exton Linux

TWO NEW PuppEX Noble64 (Puppy Linux) Builds with Mate respective KDE Plasma Desktop Environment – 241031/241029

Oct

2024

Those new Puppy Linux derivatives are made by me. They are built from Ubuntu 24.04 (Noble Numbat) packages and packages built from woof-CE Recipes. I’ve also compiled a brand new kernel – 6.11.5-exton.

COMPATIBLE WITH Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
PuppEX Noble64 Mate/KDE is compatible with Ubuntu 24.04 (Noble Numbat), which means that Ubuntu packages for Ubuntu 24.04 can be installed and used in PuppEX. You can use the Synaptic Package Manager or the Apt command. (apt update, apt upgrade, apt install MyUsefulPackage etc).

NOTE: PuppEX Noble64 Mate/KDE uses the original Ubuntu 24.04 repositories. Ubuntu 24.04 will be supported until April 2029…

Exton|OS 64 bit with Mate 1.12.7 and kernel 4.5.3-exton :: Build 160512

May

2016

Exton|OS Build 160512 is based on Ubuntu 16.04 64 bit and Debian Stretch/Sid (upcoming Debian 9). Exton|OS’s ISO file is a ISO-hybrid, which means that it can very easily be transferred (copied) to a USB pen drive. You can then even run Exton|OS from a USB stick and save all your system changes on the stick. I.e. you will enjoy persistence! Read my INSTRUCTION . For persistence please read under B) or use UNetbootin in Windows or Linux.

NEWS 160512
A new and much better version of Exton|OS is ready. I have replaced kernel 4.2.0-16-exton with kernel 4.5.3-exton. With kernel 4.5 there is no real need to use Nvidia proprietary graphic drivers since this kernel has better support for the open-source Nvidia driver Nouveau than any other older kernel. The Mate Desktop is upgraded to version 1.12.7 have also replaced Ubuntu’s installation program Ubiquity with Exton|OS Installer, which is a clone of Debian Live Installer. The installation to hard drive is now so simple that a 10 year old child can do it. Watch a SLIDESHOW of the hard drive installation process.

What’s new in Linux kernel 4.5.3?
