ExTiX 20.09 arrives based on Ubuntu 20.04.1 and with support for Android apps

ExTix 20.09

A few days before entering September, today we bring you another piece of news whose protagonist is an operating system developed by Arne Exton, so we could classify it as rare? Or if not, unusual. Yesterday, August 25, who is famous for his daring projects He launched ExTix 20.09, which is supposed to be a more advanced version than the launched two weeks ago, but it is not at all, as ExTiX 20.08 included Linux 5.8 and the version released yesterday uses Linux 5.4.

Going back to the ExTiX kernel, I can't find any explanation, beyond having wanted to use the original kernel that Ubuntu 20.04.1 is using, which is none other than Linux 5.4.42-generic. But if there is something in which ExTiX 20.09 really stands out, it is that has included Anbox by default, which is software that allows you to use Android applications on Linux. Anbox can be installed in any distribution, but you have to take a little walk through the command line if what you want is a full version and I think it is not worth it unless we really need it.

ExTiX 20.09 Highlights

  • Based on Ubuntu 20.04.1.
  • Anbox included by default. This includes the ability to install GAPPS (Google Play Services and Google Play Store) after installation of the operating system.
  • Possibility of using Refracta Snapshot from a Live Session.
  • KDE as a desktop, with Frameworks 5.68 and Plasma 5.104.
  • Ubuntu Linux 5.4.42-generic.
  • Including packages like GParted GCC and other compilation tools to be able to install packages from source, as well as many multimedia codecs.
  • Other included software: Brasero, SMPlayer, GIMP and Kodi, among others.

ExTix 20.09 can now be downloaded from Sourceforge, or by clicking this link. Although the ExTiX versions are always news and sound interesting, if the only thing that interests you is to try Anbox, in this article We explain how to install a reduced version from its Snap version.
