manjaro 16.10

In the last hours the latest version of Manjaro has been released, known as Manjaro 16.10 And as in previous versions, Xfce Edition has been the main version to be launched. As you well know, Majaro has been so successful among users that there are several versions with other desktops but based on Manjaro. Although the main version still has Xfce as its main desktop.

We can say that Manjaro 16.10 focuses on three fundamental aspects: update distribution software, improve Calamares and its installation process and improve the Xfce user experience.

The software included in Manjaro 16.10 has the latest versions of the most popular programs and desktops and used by users like this we find a Mozilla Firefox 49, Libreoffice 5.1.6, Systemd 231, Nvidia 370.28, PAMAC 4.1.5 or Plasma 5.8.2. We will also have the latest versions of the Linux kernel and the solution to Dirty Cow, the famous bug that now worries users so much.

Manjaro 16.10 or Fringilla also has a KDE version

Squids 2.4.3 is also updated and incorporates some new features such as the solution to the problems presented by LUKS and that it made users have problems when it comes to encrypting their data. It has also become possible installing GRUB on vFAT file systems and the minimum requirements to use and install the distribution have been outlined.

Xfce is still the default desktop in Manjaro. A lightweight desk that they have wanted to improve and polish so that the user continues to obtain great benefits from it. This is how it has been incorporated Vertex-Maia desktop theme to give a better look and new modules have been introduced so that the user is informed at all times of his system or in the use of it.

Actually we have XFCE and KDE versions available, for both 32-bit and 64-bit systems. There are also the minimal images and little by little the versions corresponding to other desktops such as i3 are being released. In any case, you will find all the installation images in this link. Finally comment that this version it is known as Fringilla, an interesting nickname although practically all users prefer to use codes to nicknames or maybe not?
