Mauna Linux 24.7

The Mauna Linux project has announced the release of Mauna Linux 24.7, an updated build of the Brazilian project's set of Debian-based distributions with four popular desktop environments, plus a separate "Christian" edition. This new version comes with several updates and bug fixes, and is based on Debian 12.11. One of the most important updates of the release is the brand-new version 9.0 of OnlyOffice, a free multi-platform office suite with compatibility with Microsoft Office documents. OnlyOffice 9.0 comes with a redesigned user interface that is more intuitive and accessible. To take advantage of this, it is necessary to activate either the "Modern Light" or the "Modern Dark" theme. The suite also includes a PDF editor that received important updates and productivity improvements. Mauna's Xfce variant now comes with the 6.12.30 Linux kernel, while all the other editions continue to use the upstream kernel, version 6.1.140. The included desktop environment versions are Cinnamon 6.0.2, LXQt 1.2.0, MATE 1.26 and Xfce 4.18.

Kali Linux 2025.2 netinstall iso

The Kali Linux team has released a new snapshot of the project's penetration testing distribution. Kali Linux 2025.2 features GNOME 48 and KDE Plasma 6.3, but the biggest visible change is to the application menu: "We've completely reworked the Kali menu. It's now reorganized to follow the MITRE ATT&CK framework structure, which means that finding the right tool for your task should now be a lot more intuitive for red and blue teams alike. Previously the Kali menu structure followed what was in BackTrack, which followed WHAX before it. The previous structure was an in-house item, before MITRE was a thing. When our menu was first created, there wasn't as much design planning done, which we suffered for later. It meant that over time, scaling and adding new tools became difficult for us. The knock on effect was that this made it harder for you, the end users, to discover new tools as similar tools with overlapping functions were in different places or missing entries. Yes, seasoned professionals may not use the menu to start up items, using shortcuts such as super key and typing the tool name, or via a terminal window. We see the menu as a way to discover tools."

Rocky Linux 10.0

The Rocky Linux project has published Rocky Linux 10.0, which mirrors the changes and updates from upstream's Enterprise Linux product line. Some of the key changes in version 10.0 include dropping X11 in favour of Wayland for the GNOME desktop session and introducing a RISC-V branch. "All 32-bit packages have been removed from Rocky Linux 10. This means that 32-bit applications will no longer run on this version of Rocky Linux. Please use 64-bit libraries or containers with 32-bit dependencies instead. Users will have administrative privileges by default, unless you deselect the option. The Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) is now the default for graphical remote access, replacing VNC. The DHCP client in RL 10 is implemented as an internal subsystem of NetworkManager. The legacy dhcp-client package is no longer supported upstream and has been removed. The ISC DHCP server is end-of-life upstream and is replaced by its successor, Kea DHCP, in RL 10. In RL 10, Wayland replaces the X.Org Server. Xwayland will support most X11 clients that have not yet been ported to Wayland. Some desktop applications and components are also replaced in RL 10."

PorteuX 2.1 Gnome

A new stable release of PorteuX, a Slackware-based Linux distribution that means to be fast, small, portable, modular and immutable, is now available. PorteuX 2.1 introduces the brand-new 6.15 Linux kernel and delivers various bug fixes: "PorteuX 2.1. Nothing beats a new release where the system works better and is even smaller. The default NTFS driver has been changed from ntfs-3g to ntfs3 (kernel native). After extensive development, the driver seems stable now. VirtualBox 7.1.8 (latest stable) is not compatible with kernel 6.15. So this release includes a module for VirtualBox 7.2.0 Beta 1. Wayland sessions in VirtualBox are supported but it's recommended to enable 3D Accelaration in Settings, Display. Changelog: fixed a bug where sometimes a module could be incorrectly detected as corrupted; fixed the Linux installer to be language-agnostic...."

If you haven't changed efistub_file in /etc/kernel-hooks.d/secureboot.conf, no action is needed. gummiboot-efistub has been moved to testing and is no longer maintained."
