"ExTiX 16.5 LXQt DVD 64-bit is based on Debian 8.6 Jessie, Debian 9 Stretch and the upcoming Ubuntu 16.10 Yakkety Yak. The original system includes the desktop environment Unity. After removing Unity I have installed LXQt 0.10.0. LXQt is the Qt port and the upcoming version of LXDE. It is the product of the merge between the LXDE-Qt and the Razor-qt projects: A lightweight, modular, blazing-fast and user-friendly desktop environment. The system language is English. My special kernel 4.8.0-21-exton corresponds to kernel.org’s stable kernel 4.8, its the second latest stable kernel as of now. Google Chrome is used as the web browser; this makes it possible to watch Netflix movies. Other included packages are LibreOffice, Thunderbird, GParted, Brasero, SMPlayer, GCC and other compilation tools.
