AnduinOS 1.3.7 and 1.1.10 released
AnduinOS, a custom Ubuntu-based Linux distribution, has released two new versions: 1.3.7 and 1.1.10. These updates address an issue with package versions and add a crucial printer driver package to the default application list, enhancing compatibility with various printers.
As a user-friendly operating system, AnduinOS is designed to provide an effortless transition from other platforms to Linux. Its compact ISO size of just 2.0GB makes installation straightforward and uncomplicated, meeting daily needs without requiring additional configuration or technical expertise.
The GNOME-based desktop environment offers a Windows-like interface that aligns with users' habits, allowing them to quickly adapt to AnduinOS without extensive learning costs. Additionally, the system prioritizes user privacy by not tracking, profiling, or targeting individuals, ensuring anonymity and security.
AnduinOS is built upon Ubuntu's package base, ensuring compatibility with most apt packages from Ubuntu, thus maintaining a perfect balance between experience and ecological responsibility. Furthermore, as an open-source project following the GPL-v3 license, users can view the source code, modify it, and redistribute it freely.
One of its main features is containerization using Flatpak, which lets you install graphical applications separately from the main system (added in version 1.3), giving you better control over permissions and creating a safer environment.
AnduinOS offers two main version branches: LTS (Long-Term Support) and Standard. The LTS version is recommended for users seeking stability and long-term support, while the Standard version is ideal for those with newer devices who want to explore the latest features.
With AnduinOS, users can utilize it as a daily operating system, development environment, server, or learning tool, mirroring the capabilities of Ubuntu. This flexibility makes it an excellent choice for anyone transitioning to Linux or seeking a versatile and secure platform.
The recent updates in AnduinOS 1.3.7 have resolved issues with version numbers, preventing potential errors when mounting squashfs files during initramfs. Furthermore, both versions now include the printer-driver-all package by default, expanding compatibility with various printers. Additionally, all Ubuntu packages are bumped to their latest versions, ensuring users have access to the most recent features and security updates.
The inclusion of the printer-driver-all package in AnduinOS 1.3.7 and 1.1.10 has significantly improved printer support, allowing users to utilize a wider range of printers with the operating system.
The latest versions of AnduinOS are readily available for download on the official AnduinOS website, providing users with easy access to the enhancements and features included in these updates.
