Chakra GNU/Linux is a user-friendly and powerful distribution and live CD based on Arch Linux. It features a graphical installer, automatic hardware detection and configuration, the latest KDE desktop, and a variety of tools and extras.
The Chakra GNU/Linux project, a semi-rolling desktop distribution, has received an update. The developers have announced a new version, Chakra 2017.03, which carries the code name "Goedel". The new snapshot features the Calamares 3.0.1.91 system installer which includes support for installing the distribution on Btrfs and LUKS encrypted partitions. "We are excited to announce the first Chakra release of 2017, codenamed Goedel, to honour the logician, mathematician and philosopher Kurt Goedel. The 2017.03 release introduces two noteworthy changes: 1. The installer, Calamares, has been updated to version 3.0.1.91. As a result, users are now able to install Chakra on Btrfs and LUKS encrypted partitions. Calamares has received lots of partitioning enhancements and bug fixes since our previous ISO release and the installation process should be smoother than ever. 2. Our homegrown Heritage theme for Plasma got a refreshing face-lift that we hope you will enjoy.
