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?_ + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: https://news.itsfoss.com/slax-15-release/ + +作者：[Ankush Das][a] +选题：[lujun9972][b] +译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) +校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创编译，[Linux中国](https://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[a]: https://news.itsfoss.com/author/ankush/ +[b]: https://github.com/lujun9972 +[1]: https://itsfoss.com/lightweight-linux-beginners/ +[2]: https://news.itsfoss.com/slackware-15-release/ +[3]: https://news.itsfoss.com/linux-kernel-5-15-release/ +[4]: https://www.slax.org/ +[5]: https://patreon.com/slax/
