Linux SDesk 2024.01.18 is Released

 


SDesk is an Arch-based Linux distribution which strives for an easy to use, modern approach to desktop computing. The SDesk project ships up to date software and uses GNOME running on a Wayland session for its default desktop environment. SDesk includes a number of popular open source applications, including LibreOffice and uses Calamares to install the operating system.

The Thirteenth SDesk ISO is here with an updated Swirl browser that includes Lua plugin support, custom search engines and more, better window tiling support, an updated Calamares installer, better desktop icon support, and a brand new default background! The startup sound has also been modified so when it runs it is detached from the script that plays it, allowing SDesk to boot up even faster.

Here is everything you need to know:

  • Packages have been updated
  • SShell now includes a tiling assistant extension
  • SShell detaches the mplayer process that plays the startup sound
  • Swirl 2.2 now includes plugin support
  • Swirl 2.2 now allows you to add custom search engines to the browser
  • Swirl 2.2 no longer uses a custom user agent, allowing more websites to load
  • You can now tile windows from the bottom and top of your screen
  • New default background
