TUXEDO OS, an Ubuntu-based distribution developed by TUXEDO Computers, primarily designed to run on the company’s laptops and desktops, just released its latest major version 4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under the hood, the distro comes powered by the latest and greatest Linux kernel 6.11, accompanied by Systemd 255.4, Mesa graphics stack 24.2<\/a>, and PipeWire 1.2.5<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the distribution relies exclusively on KDE, if we had to pick a highlight feature of this release, it would undoubtedly be the upgrade to Plasma 6.1<\/a> (more specifically, v6.1.5<\/a>) desktop environment. In addition, TUXEDO OS 4 gives users KDE Frameworks 6.6<\/a>, Qt Libraries 6.7, and KDE Gear 24.08.1<\/a> apps collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, to the other very important thing – this update marks a significant change in how the operating system will be named and numbered moving forward. Instead of continuing with TUXEDO OS 4, the operating system will now simply be known as TUXEDO OS, without version numbers. Here’s why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those unfamiliar, the distro employs a hybrid release model that blends aspects of rolling and point releases<\/a>, ensuring nearly daily updates to keep key applications current while maintaining a stable underlying system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In light of this, according to the developers<\/a>, the decision to drop version numbers is a natural progression that aligns with the semi-rolling update model, and the stable base TUXEDO OS provides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lastly, for those planning a fresh installation or new to TUXEDO OS, an ISO image of the latest release is available in the download section on the TUXEDO website<\/a>. The team has also published a detailed guide<\/a> to help users update their systems step-by-step, making the transition as smooth as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
