Debian-based Q4OS 5.6 arrives with a desktop profiler and Calamares improvements

Codenamed Aquarius, Q4OS 5 has been around since mid-2023 and will receive long-term support until at least June 2028. The latest update to this Linux distro is Q4OS 5.6, which is based on the Debian Bookworm 12.7 updates. It uses the Debian stable 6.1.0-25 kernel and also comes with quite a few security and bug fixes that all Debian users receive with the aforementioned updates. However, some Q4OS-exclusive changes are also in the cards.

The list of Q4OS-specific updates includes the following highlights:

  • A custom desktop profile loader in the Calamares installer.
  • A native Q4OS setup tool.
  • New features in the Desktop profiler.
  • New Debian Shim and Grub bootloader binaries for the live media.

While the live images are available only in 64-bit versions (Plasma and Trinity), the install images are available in 64-bit and 32-bit versions, both using the Trinity desktop environment. For those who want to run Q4OS on a Windows machine, there is also a setup wizard that allows a quick installation and is compatible with all Windows versions, starting with 7. The setup guide is available on this page. In addition to these, an unofficial spin for the Raspberry Pi is also available.

Speaking of the Raspberry Pi, those interested in a budget offering can currently grab the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ Board (3B+) with 1 GB of memory off Amazon for $44.40 instead of $69.99, thanks to a generous 37% discount.
