KDE Linux To Provide Better Hardware Support & Better Performance
Following the September release of the KDE LInux reference distribution for the KDE desktop in alpha form, KDE Linux developers have been working toward the beta release with more improvements to this open-source desktop distro.
KDE Linux as a reminder is KDE's reference platform while leveraging an immutable base OS and Arch Linux packages for the core platform. KDE Linux will ship with all the latest and greatest KDE software releases.
KDE developer Nate Graham has put out a blog post today to outline some of the recent improvements made to this Linux distribution as it works toward the beta milestone. KDE Linux now enables delta updates by default for quicker/smaller updates, Plasma Setup and the Plasma Login Manager are being used by KDE Linux, and there is also better hardware support now compared to the alpha release. More drivers are enabled and configuration updates are allowing different peripherals to now play nicely under KDE Linux.
KDE Linux has also been working on performance improvements by including the Zen kernel, other kernel optimizations, low-latency audio optimizations, and more. Many of these KDE Linux performance optimizations are being pulled in from the fellow Arch Linux distribution CachyOS.
KDE Linux also now ships with RAR compressed file support, adds a command-not-found handler, quieter boot process, and more KDE apps are now included.
