ExTIX is a desktop Linux distribution based on paldo GNU/Linux. Like its parent, ExTIX uses a powerful hybrid (source and binary) package management tool called Upkg. The distribution comes as a live DVD and includes a graphical system installer.
The ExTiX project provides an Ubuntu-based distribution which features alternative desktop environments and applications. The projects latest release is ExTix 18.7 which features the LXQt desktop instead of Ubuntus default GNOME environment. "ExTiX 18.7 LXQt DVD 64-bit is based on Debian 9 Stretch and Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver. The original system includes the desktop environment GNOME. After removing GNOME I have installed LXQt 0.12.0. LXQt is the Qt port and the upcoming version of LXDE, the Lightweight Desktop Environment. 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 corresponds to kernel.orgs unstable kernel 4.18-rc5. Firefox has replaced Google Chrome as web browser. Its now possible to watch Netflix movies also in Firefox (while running Linux). I have replaced Ubuntus Ubiquity with the Calamares installer. Calamares is an installer framework. By design it is very customizable in order to satisfy a wide variety of needs and use cases.
