ArchEX (Arch Linux) BUILD 260108 with LXQt 2.3, Calamares Installer 3.4.0 and kernel 6.18.2-arch2-1

Leave a comment

I’ve made a new extra version of ArchEX with the LXQt 2.3 Desktop Environment. LXQt 2.3 was released 251105 LXQt is a lightweight Qt desktop environment. It will not get in your way. It will not hang or slow down your system. It is focused on being a classic desktop with a modern look and feel. I’ve also managed to install Calamares Installer from source in ArchEX LXQt. It means that you can install ArchEX LXQt in any language. Everything will then be in your chosen language when the installation has completed.

RUNS from RAM
ArchEX LXQt runs LIVE from RAM. Super fast. When the System has booted up you can remove the USB stick or the DVD.

WAYLAND
Some people think that using Wayland in a Linux System is very important. Wayland is said to be “the modern, simpler, more secure replacement for the aging X11 display server, offering better performance”. You can install Wayland ArchEX LXQt to use it instead of the X11 display server. I “forgot” to do so. Just run the command sudo pacman -S lxqt-wayland-session labwc. You can do it also while running ArchEX live. Watch this screenshot.

Study all installed packages in ArchEX LXQt.

How To dual boot, triple boot or multi boot Linux with Windows in a simple way and be happy
Before installing ArchEX or any other Linux system my general installation instructions may be of interest.

WHO should run Arch Linux?
My answer: The system fits the “advanced” Linux user/enthusiast, who would be willing to run an occasional command from time to time.

BENEFITS of ArchEX/Arch Linux
“Cutting Edge”-software and speed. You will for example always run the latest kernel if you upgrade ArchEX/Arch (for example) every month.

SCREENSHOTS
1. The LXQt Desktop for the ordinary user user
2. Calamares Installer is running
3. Showing a WiFi connection
4. The LightDM Login Screen
5. Running in full screen in VirtualBox
6. The Desktop for root
7. Showing a Samba connection

ArchEX 2026 (Arch Linux) Live with KDE Plasma 6.5.4-1, Wayland, kernel 6.18.2-arch2-1 and Calamares Installer 3.4.0 :: Build 260106

Leave a comment

ABOUT ArchEX 2026 Build 260106
I’ve made a new extra version of ArchEX with KDE Plasma 6.5.4-1 – latest version released 251209. Plasma is made to stay out of the way as it helps you get things done. But under its light and intuitive surface, it’s a powerhouse. So you’re free to choose ways of usage right as you need them and when you need them. This ArchEX version uses kernel 6.18.2-arch2-1. ArchEX can very easy be installed to hard drive (if you want) with Calamares Installer version 3.4.0 (latest). Installed (by me) from source.

Replacement
This ArchEX version replaces version 250507, 241124, 240509 and 240106.

Study all installed packages in ArchEX 2026 with KDE Plasma 6.5.4-1.

Wayland
Some people think that using Wayland in a Linux System is very important. Wayland is said to be the modern, simpler, more secure replacement for the aging X11 display server, offering better performance. ArchEX KDE uses Wayland instead of the X11 display server.

Rolling distribution
Arch Linux/ArchEX are rolling distributions, which implies that once you have installed the system on the hard drive there is no need for re-installations (which otherwise is common in the Linux world).

WHO should run Arch Linux?
My answer: The system fits the “advanced” Linux user/enthusiast, who would be willing to run an occasional command from time to time.

BENEFITS of ArchEX/Arch Linux
“Cutting Edge”-software and speed. You will for example always run the latest kernel if you upgrade ArchEX/Arch (for example) every month.

ArchEX (Arch Linux) Live System with MATE 1.28.2-2 DE, Calamares 3.4.0 and kernel 6.18.2-arch-2-1 :: Build 260104

Leave a comment

ABOUT ArchEX Build 260104
I’ve made a new extra version of ArchEX with the MATE Desktop environment. This ArchEX version replaces version 240101, which had Pantheon as DE. At the moment (260104) Pantheon doesn’t work in Arch Linux. After a full system upgrade the Pantheon menu is gone and you can’t get it back.

Calamares Installer
This ArchEX version has Calamares Installer installed. Using Calamares means that you can install ArchEX MATE in any language. Everything will then be in your chosen language when the installation has completed.

ABOUT MATE: The MATE Desktop Environment is the continuation of GNOME 2. It provides an intuitive and attractive desktop environment using traditional metaphors for Linux and other Unix-like operating systems. MATE is under active development to add support for new technologies while preserving a traditional desktop experience.

exGENT (Gentoo) Rpi5 for Raspberry Pi 5 with LXDE, NetworkManager, Firefox and kernel 6.12.62-v8-16k+ :: An unique Build 251228

Leave a comment

ABOUT exGENT Rpi5
I’ve built a Gentoo system for Raspberry Pi 5. Just for fun, but it took me four days to compile everything from “scratch”. exGENT Rpi5 is a full Gentoo/Linux Desktop system with LXDE (an extremely fast-performing and energy-saving desktop environment). Study all other included packages in exGENT Rpi5. The most important apps are NetworkManager and Firefox.

REPLACEMENT
exGENT Rpi5 is a replacement for exGENT Rpi4 from 200410 (!?). The performance is much better on a Rpi5. You can also run exGENT Rpi5 Build 251228 on a Rpi4. Just replace /boot/config.txt (on the boot partition) with this file.
NOTE: A Raspberry Pi 5 is about twice as fast as the Raspberry Pi 4.

KERNEL
Kernel 6.12.62-v8-16k+ is used when running on a Rpi5.
Kernel 6.12.64-v8+ is used when running on a Rpi4.

PERFORMANCE
The system is quite fast and responsive. All included applications work very well.

WHO should run Gentoo Linux/exGENT Rpi5?
My answer: The system fits the “advanced” Linux user/enthusiast, who would be willing to run an occasional command from time to time.

Is exGENT Rpi5 UNIQUE?
I believe so. In any case you can’t find another Gentoo System for Raspberry Pi 5 for downloading.

SCREENSHOTS
1. The Desktop for root
2. The Desktop for pi
3. Resizing the rootfs
4. YouTube is running 
5. Running on a Rpi4

PuppEX (Puppy Linux) KDE Trixie64 with Wayland ::: Build 251222

Leave a comment

ABOUT
Some people think that using Wayland in a Linux System is very important. Wayland is said to be the modern, simpler, more secure replacement for the aging X11 display server, offering better performance. I have therefore made a PuppEX System which uses Wayland instead of the X11 display server. I call it PuppEX Trixie64 KDE Wayland Build 251222. My new Puppy Linux derivative is built using the Trixie Build Script (mklive-trixie). The new System is compatible with Debian Trixie – Debian 13. It is for UEFI computers and non-UEFI computers. Build 251222 uses KDE Plasma 5:162 as Desktop environment (DE). “Compatible with Debian 13” means that you can use the Apt command (apt update, apt upgrade, apt install MyUsefulPackage etc.) and Synaptic for installing thousands of new Debian packages in PuppEX Trixie64. Study all pre-installed packages in PuppEx Trixie64 KDE.

Install to hard drive
PuppEX Trixie64 can easily be installed manually (frugal install) to hard drive if you have at least one Linux system installed. You must also use Grub as boot loader.

FedEX Rpi5 (Fedora 43 ARM64) for Raspberry Pi5 and Pi4 with GNOME 49 :: Build 251215

Leave a comment

FedEX Rpi5 for Raspberry Pi5 and 4 is a “remaster” of the Fedora Project’s Fedora 43 Workstation build for ARM64 (aarch64).

REPLACEMENT
My previous version of FedEX from 250105 was also made for Raspberry Pi5.

ABOUT
FedEX Rpi5 uses the GNOME 49 Desktop. (As the original system does). The original Fedora 43 ARM64 system can only run a Raspberry Pi4 computer. You may be able to start it on a Rpi5, but you can’t make the keyboard and mouse work. My Build works very well on a Raspberry Pi5 computer though. You can also run FedEX Rpi5 on a Rpi4 computer. Your Raspberry Pi computer will automatically choose the correct kernel at boot.

Study all installed packages…

USED KERNEL
6.12.56-1.rpi5-fc43.aarch64

PERFORMANCE
The system is quite fast and responsive. All included applications work very well.

WHO SHOULD RUN FedEX Rpi5 for Raspberry Pi5 and 4?
My answer: The system fits the “advanced” Linux user/enthusiast, who would be willing to run an occasional command from time to time.

SCREENSHOTS
1. The Desktop for the ordinary user pi
2. The Desktop for root
3. Running YouTube showing very good video quality
4. Running dnf upgrade 251215

EXTON OpSuS (openSUSE) Tumbleweed with KDE Plasma 6.5.2, Refracta Snapshot and kernel 6.17.4-amd64-exton :: Build 251122

Leave a comment

EXTON OpSuS Tumbleweed is based on openSUSE Tumbleweed, which is a rolling distribution. I.e. no need for new installations. Just run the command sudo zypper dup and you will always get the latest stable packages/kernels. The ISO files are of 2640MB (GNOME version) respectively 3030 MB (KDE version). Both versions will thus run very fast from a DVD or a USB stick. Even in VirtualBox/VMware directly from the ISO file.

ABOUT Tumbleweed
With Tumbleweed you don’t have to take difficult decisions about things you value, either freedom or safety, either control or security, technology or stability — Tumbleweed lets you have your cake and eat it too.
READ MORE…

EXTON OpSuS Tumbleweed with KDE Plasma 6.5.2 Desktop Environment Build 251122
This OpSuS version uses kernel 6.17.4-amd64-exton. Installed programs: Among many other programs, Firefox, NetworkManager, GParted and a lot of special KDE packages. You’ll run the system as the normal user user or as root. The password for user is live. Root’s password is root. EXTON OpSuS KDE can easily be installed to hard drive (of those who so desire). For that you shall use Refracta Installer. All packages have been updated to the latest available version as of November 22, 2025.
NOTE1:  When the boot process is ready you will end up at LightDM’s login screen. You can log in to the KDE Plasma Desktop as user with password live or as root with password root. You will see this first screen when logged in to KDE as the normal user user.
NOTE2: When logged in as root you won’t have sound. Watch a screenshot of the KDE Desktop for root.
NOTE3: Version 251122 of EXTON OpSuS can run on really old computers. As an example I could run it on my 19 years old laptop Acer Aspire 5102 WLMi. Not very fast, but still…
NOTE4: Use Refracta Snapshot to build your very own version of EXTON OpSuS/openSUSE. I.e. you can change everything to you liking and quickly create a new ISO file. Your own.
NOTE5: Kernel 6.17.4-amd64-exton is used when running EXTON OpSuS LIVE. When running the System from hard drive you can use openSUSE’s kernel. Right now version 6.17.8.
NOTE6: To be able to use Refracta Snapshot you’ll have to keep “my” kernel 6.17.4-amd64-exton in /boot and also the links to said kernel in /. (/vmlinuz and /initrd.img).
NOTE7: The KDE version 251122 works very well in VirtualBox and VMware. Version 251120 did not work so well in VirtualBox. That is the main reason for the new Build of 251122.
NOTE8: The KDE version works very well on all “normal” computers. I could run the system on my six different computers. If you have at least 6GB RAM (maybe just 4GB) you can choose boot alternative 2 – “Load to RAM”. (The best way to run any Linux system). Watch this screenshot.
NOTE9: EXTON OpSuS is a LIVE system, which means that you can try it before you install it. The official openSUSE distribution must be installed immediately.
NOTE 10: When logging in to the KDE Plasma Desktop you can choose between the X11 server and Wayland – screenshot. Wayland is the modern, more secure, and efficient replacement for the older X11 display server.

SCREENSHOTS
1. The Desktop for the normal user user
2. The Desktop for root
3. Refracta Installer has started
4. Refracta Installer has completed
5. Setting screen resolution in VirtualBox
6. Using Samba

EXTON OpSuS (openSUSE) Tumbleweed with GNOME 49, Refracta Snapshot and kernel 6.17.4-amd64-exton :: Build 251115

EXTON OpSuS GNOME  is based on openSUSE Tumbleweed, which is a rolling distribution. I.e. no need for new installations. Just run the command sudo zypper dup and you will always get the latest stable packages/kernels. The ISO file is of 2640MB. This GNOME 49 version will thus run very fast from a DVD or a USB stick. Even in VirtualBox/VMware directly from the ISO file.

NOTE ABOUT EXTON OpSuS Deepin from 240807
The Deepin DE is no longer maintained by openSUSE due to packaging policy violations and various security issues. I have therefore deleted the ISO file from 240807, which used Deepin 20.6 as Desktop Environment.

ABOUT EXTON OpSuS for PC’s – Build 251115
I’ve made a new version of EXTON OpSuS with GNOME 49 as the only DE. The ISO is therefore rather small (2640MB), which means that you can run the system from RAM really fast even if you have for example only 8GB RAM. This new EXTON OpSuS build is made from “scratch” following the Wiki “openSUSE:Expert Installation“. If you want to do the same you can study my packages LIST first. Be sure to install all necessary kernel-firmware. For example kernel-firmware-nvidia. If you “forget” to do that and try to run the system on a computer with an Nvidia graphics card it won’t work. To be on the safe side you might want to run the command sudo zypper in kernel-firmware*.

Study all installed packages in EXTON OpSuS GNOME…

NOTES
NOTE1: Kernel 6.17.4-amd64-exton is used when running EXTON OpSuS LIVE. When running the System from hard drive you can use openSUSE’s original kernel. Right now version 6.17.7.
NOTE2: When the boot process is ready you will end up at GDM’s login screen. You can log in to the GNOME Desktop as user with password live or as root with password root.
NOTE3: Use Refracta Snapshot to build your very own version of EXTON OpSuS/openSUSE. I.e. you can change everything and quickly create a new ISO file. Your own. The new is ISO found in /home/snapshot.
NOTE4: You be able to use Refracta Snapshot you’ll have to keep “my” kernel 6.17.4-amd64-exton in /boot and also the links to said kernel in /. (/vmlinuz and /initrd.img).
NOTE5: Version 251115 of EXTON OpSuS can run on really old computers. As an example I could run it on my 19 years old laptop Acer Aspire 5102 WLMi.

Exton|Defender fc43 (stable) with Cinnamon 6.4.1-4.fc43, Calamares Installer and Refracta Snapshot :: Build 251102

Leave a comment

Exton|Defender SRS  (Super Rescue System) is a Linux system available as a Live System based on Fedora 43, 64bit. Fedora 43 was released on October 28, 2025. Exton|Defender is for administrating or repairing your system and data after a crash. Exton|Defender aims to provide an easy way to carry out admin tasks on your computer, such as creating and editing the hard disk partitions. It comes with a lot of Linux software such as system tools and basic tools (editors, Midnight Commander, network tools). Exton|Defender can, however, also be used as a normal Linux Desktop System. It requires no hard drive installation, but can easily be installed to hard drive if you want. Desktop environment: A special version of Cinnamon 6.4.1-4.fc43 developed by Fedora. NOTE: Just two days after I had released Exton|Defender – based on Fedora 42 stable – I found out that Fedora 43 was released (251028). I therefore simply HAD TO make an Exton|Defender version based on fc43.
