The Murena project has just pushed the /e/OS mobile platform to version 3.6. This update is the first one with Android 16 as its base and comes with improved search capabilities, multiple tweaks and fixes, as well as a much better software center.

Arch-based and systemd-free distro Artix Linux is back with update 20260402, a refresh that comes with two major changes. First, it replaces Xorg Server with XLibre as the default display server. Second, it moves from PulseAudio to PipeWire when it comes to the default audio system.

After more than a year since the release of its predecessor, Netrunner 26 arrives with a new base (Debian Stable 13 Trixie), Plasma 6.3.6 and KDE 6.13.0, multiple updates for the specific components such as Samba-mounter and Artwork, yt-dlp GUI Statcher7, better hardware support, and much more.

Version 2.1 of CuerdOS keeps the focus on stability, efficiency, and performance. This distro comes with much more than just updated packages, bringing a self-hosted repository, catalog reductions, Fastcompmgr instead of XFWM4 and GtkLock replacing Swaylock-fancy, the 6.18.9 kernel, UFW enabled by default, and more.

The Polish lightweight distro 4MLinux returns with version 51.0, which includes Firefox 149 and Chrome 146, LibreOffice 26.2, improved support for ZX Spectrum and Atari music thanks to the AY/YM emulation library, as well as many updated firmware packages and apps, alongside the usual set of tweaks and fixes.

On the path to the planned April 23 release, Ubuntu 26.04 LTS beta is here with the new GNOME 50 desktop and several new default apps, including the Resources system monitor, not to mention the latest release candidate version of the yet-to-be-released Linux kernel 7.0. New GPU drivers and plenty of package updates are also included.
