Slax Linux Re-Introduces a Slackware Variant With Slax 15 Release
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
Slax is one of the most interesting [lightweight Linux distributions][1].
|
||||
|
||||
It was also a suitable option for 32-bit systems, considering it is based on Slackware. If you are curious, Slackware is the oldest active Linux distribution and witnessed a major upgrade after 6 years, i.e, [Slackware 15][2].
|
||||
|
||||
Slax also offered an alternative edition based on Debian, which is being actively maintained. Unfortunately, as mentioned by the creator in the blog post, the Slackware-based version (**Slax 14**) did not see an update for a long time (9 years).
|
||||
|
||||
So, it is refreshing to see a major upgrade finally to it in the form of **Slax 15.0**, along with a minor update to its Debian edition, i.e, **Slax 11.4.0**.
|
||||
|
||||
Interestingly, the release was available to its supporters back in July 2022. And now, it is available for everyone to download and try out.
|
||||
|
||||
Let me highlight what’s new.
|
||||
|
||||
### Slax 15.0 and Slax 11.4 Release
|
||||
|
||||
To address the key upgrade, Slax 15.0 brings along the improvements added to Slackware 15.0.
|
||||
|
||||
That should include the addition of [Linux Kernel 5.15 LTS][3], which should add enhanced NTFS driver support, and refinements for Intel/AMD processors. You may want to check the kernel flavors offered to get more built-in drivers, or the generic option to save memory and boot time warnings.
|
||||
|
||||
The release supports slackpkg with its plugin, which means you can install software from various repositories, including the official Slackware repo and a SlackOnly repo.
|
||||
|
||||
Slax 15.0 also involves an updated shutdown procedure with refined handling to unmount devices.
|
||||
|
||||
Considering Slax is no more a KDE-based distribution. So, you can expect a Fluxbox-based edition when you download the ISO for its Slackware or Debian-based edition.
|
||||
|
||||
When it comes to the Debian edition, you will find it based on **Debian 11.4** “Bullseye” update.
|
||||
|
||||
### Download Slax 15.0 and Slax 11.4
|
||||
|
||||
You cannot find a 32-bit version for the Slackware-based release, but only for the Debian-based ISO.
|
||||
|
||||
The ISO files are available to download on its official website. Optional purchase options are available as well if you want to support the project in a way.
|
||||
|
||||
[Slax 15.0][4]
|
||||
|
||||
In either case, you can head to its [Patreon page][5] to show support.
|
||||
|
||||
_What do you think about the Slax 15.0 release? Have you tried it yet?_
