Siduction

Siducion è una distribuzione Linux basata su Debian “unstable” orientata al desktop e che offre ben 4 differenti Desktop Manger: KDE, LXDE, XFCE, Razon-qt. In particolare è nata come fork di Aptosid per facilitare l’installazione ed è sempre una rolling release.

Versione 22.1.1

Questa versione contiene:

We are pleased to offer siduction 2022.1.1 as a bugfix release. It is based on an excerpt of Debian Sid from March 8, 2023. siduction 2022.1 had some problems with the newly introduced snapshot feature when using Btrfs as files ystem, which were difficult to solve, but are now fixed thanks to the tireless work of Axel Konrad (akli). In addition, siduction 2022.1.1 reflects the changed sources list due to Debian’s new policy on handling non-free firmware. Furthermore, besides many package updates, Linux 6.2.2 and KDE Plasma 5.27.2 are shipped.

The User and password for the live session are siducer/live.

Desktop environments

With that out of the way, let’s cut to the chase. »Masters of War« has quite a few new features to offer that we hope you will find exiting enough to try out. But before that, let’s get to the basics first. »Masters of War« uses Linux 6.2.2 as kernel and offers images with KDE Plasma as our main offering, along with LXQt, Xfce, Xorg and noX. We will continue to offer unofficial builds for GNOME, Cinnamon and MATE on testbuilds.siduction.org.

KDE Plasma is included in version 5.27.2, accompanied by KDE Frameworks 5.101 and KDE Gear 22.12. Xfce 4.18 was released about two weeks ago, and we are happy to be able to include it in our release. LXQt stands at v1.2.0.

Why we don’t ship as many desktops as we did

Should you wonder why we don’t ship, GNOME, Cinnamon, or MATE anymore, the reason is simple: We don’t have the time nor the respective intimate knowledge to keep those desktop environments in the shape they deserve to be released to you. If you think, siduction should again ship one of those desktops, and you have the resources to help us do that, we are more than happy to support you in any way possible. Please help us to secure the future of siduction by stepping up and helping us out in different capacities.

Generally speaking, siduction is what you make of it, as it is a community effort. And with our small team most of the time we’re in the situation that we would like to offer more to our users. No matter if you have ideas, clever solutions to scratch a personal itch or beautiful artwork gathering dust on your hard drive – this is your chance to join us and contribute!
