Tanglu 3.0 and Kubuntu 15.04

 

This month, we bring you two great Debian-based KDE distributions. KDE's Plasma Desktop is known for its elegant design, productive interface, and ability to be customized to your needs. The Live DVD included in this issue allows you to try two distros without making changes to your disk.

Tanglu 3.0 (64-bit)

Tanglu 3.0, nicknamed Chromodoris willani [1], comes with Calamares, "a distribution-independent system installer" that offers an advanced partitioning feature for both manual and automated partitioning operations [2]. Tanglu also includes:

  • Linux 4.0 kernel
  • systemd 224
  • KDE Plasma Workspaces 5.3

Kubuntu 15.04 (32-bit)

Kubuntu, one of the most well known distributions of the KDE desktop, contains all your favorite apps for home and office, such as graphics, multimedia, social, and Internet software. The KDE Games website [3] provides a wide variety of games for download. Kubuntu 15.04 includes:

  • KDE Plasma Workspaces 5.3.2
  • Frameworks 5.12.0
  • Applications 14.12
