So far, all of the browsers that I reviewed for this book have been Gnome-based browsers. Epiphany is a Gnome-sponsored project, and Firefox is rapidly moving towards Gnomeization (though at the time of this writing, a Qt port of Firefox is under heavy development). What's a good KDE user to do? Simple: use the conqueror of the browser market, Konqueror."What" and "Who" is Konqueror for?Figure 1: KonquerorAccording to the home page,Konqueror is an Open Source web browser with HTML 4.01 compliance, supporting Java applets, JavaScript, CSS 1, CSS 2.1, as well as Netscape plugins (for example, Flash or RealVideo plugins).In 2000, users of the new KDE 2.0 release found a new replacement for the old KDE File Manager. This replacement, known as Konqueror, combined a Netscape-like web browser and a Midnight Commander-like file manager to make a very handy all-in-one browser. In addition to the browser and file manager, there was support for all the KIO protocols, turning Konqueror into an FTP client, Samba client, NFS browser, and LDAP viewer as well as a file manager and browser. It could also open and view many different types of files, thanks to KParts integration. TechRepublic even went so far as to call it "perhaps the most exciting part of KDE 2.0". Konqueror quickly began to attract attention. Linux Magazine awarded it the Tuxie award for Best Web Browser, linux-community.de gave it the Linux New Media award, and the famed Linux Journal gave Konqueror the editor's choice award for the best web client. Soon, Konqueror was the de facto KDE manager, doing everything from one interface. Unfortunately, Konqueror was removed as default file manager in KDE 4 in favor of Dolphin. While it can still be used as a file manager, it uses the Dolphin engine and doesn't give many advantages over. KDE Store KDE e.V.

Uri Herrera announced today the general availability of Nitrux 2.7 as the latest ISO release for this systemd-free GNU/Linux distribution featuring the latest KDE Plasma desktop environment with a focus on AppImages.Powered by the long-term supported Linux 6.1 LTS kernel series (Liquorix flavored for desktop, multimedia, and gaming workloads), Nitrux 2.7 is here to offer you a brand-new flavor of its ISO image featuring the in-house developed and long-anticipated Maui Shell desktop interface.Maui Shell is a convergent desktop interface for desktops and mobile devices developed by the Nitrux development team. It features a set of in-house baked apps created with the Maui Kit, called Maui Apps, which are also available in the KDE Plasma edition.To be honest, I like the Maui Shell flavor better than the KDE Plasma flavor. I think it makes Nitrux more special and not “yet another KDE-focused distro.” Unfortunately, Maui Shell is still not a finished product so it will take a while until it becomes the default desktop environment of Nitrux.Nitrux 2.7 Maui Shell flavorAs expected, the new Maui Shell edition is also based on Debian GNU/Linux, just like the KDE Plasma edition, which was updated to the latest and greatest KDE Plasma 5.27 LTS desktop environment series, as well as the recently released KDE Frameworks 5.103 and KDE Gear 22.12.3 software suites.Of course, the Nitrux 2.7 release also brings various updated packages and apps, including the latest Mesa 23 graphics stack and the NVIDIA 525.89.02 graphics driver, as well as bug fixes to make your Nitrux experience better. Check out the release announcement page for more details.Nitrux 2.7 is available for download right now from the official website or by clicking the direct download links below. Depending on your needs, you can choose between the new Maui Shell version or the KDE Plasma edition.The ISO images are used for new installations and to upgrade from Nitrux 2.6 or a previous release. Details on how to upgrade your Nitrux installations are provided in the official release notes.Last updated on March 8th, 2023 at 03:44 am

KDE For Students - KDE Community

Frequently, we receive questions regarding the release model of our in-house distribution TUXEDO OS. Common inquiries include which base we use for TUXEDO OS or why certain packages are not offered in their latest version. In this article, we explain our release model and answer these and similar questions.Semi-Rolling ReleaseOur release model falls under the category of semi-rolling release. This means that some components are kept up to date, while others follow the base of the distribution.The BaseSince we’re talking about the base: TUXEDO OS uses the latest long-term support version of Ubuntu (LTS) as its base. We are currently transitioning from Ubuntu 22.04 LTS to 24.04 LTS. We are often asked why we use Ubuntu and not Debian or another distribution. This is partly due to the foundation of our KDE Plasma integration, which originates from the user edition of KDE neon. KDE neon is also based on Ubuntu, making our work in this context significantly easier.The Plasma DesktopBased on the latest Ubuntu LTS, which is shipped with GNOME as the default desktop, we use the current KDE Plasma desktop instead. This consists of the Plasma Desktop, KDE Frameworks, and KDE Gear. For this, we source around 270 packages from the KDE neon repositories.Packages We Package OurselvesThen there are the packages that we package and keep up to date ourselves for various reasons. The reason we don’t do this with all or more packages is that packaging, testing and maintaining them involves considerable time and effort.The following packages are kept up to date or made available in our repository for other reasons, so they are automatically updated during system updates: bluez calamares chromium egl-wayland firefox libdrm2 maliit-keyboard mc mesa nextcloud-desktop openrgb pipewire sddm thunderbird wireplumber virtualbox xwaylandWhy Do We Package Ourselves?We mainly keep packages like Firefox, Thunderbird, and Chromium up to date for security reasons. Other packages like mesa, egl-wayland, libdrm2, pipewire, and wireplumber ensure a constantly up-to-date graphics stack in connection with current graphics drivers. VirtualBox is kept up to date to ensure support for our kernels.For Different ReasonsHowever, keeping packages up to date is not always the reason we package them ourselves. For instance, the virtual keyboard maliit-keyboard is in in our repository in an older version because the current package from KDE neon does not work on our InfinityFlex Convertible. Other packages like the file manager mc are prevented from using the regular version due to. KDE Store KDE e.V. KDE Free Qt Foundation KDE Timeline KDE Manifesto International Websites.
