The Slackware-based PorteuX 2.5 distribution, inspired by Slax and Porteus and designed to be super fast, small, portable, modular, and immutable, is out today with various updates and changes.

Powered by the latest and greatest Linux 6.18 kernel series (with SYSRQ support), PorteuX 2.5 ships with no less than eight editions featuring the GNOME 49.2, KDE Plasma 6.5.4, Cinnamon 6.6, LXQt 2.3, COSMIC 1.0, Xfce 4.20, LXDE 0.11.1, and MATE 1.28.2 desktop environments.

Some interesting highlights of the PorteuX 2.5 release include support for some Realtek network cards, the NVIDIA 590.48.01 graphics driver, improved handling of cheatcodes, improved overall stripping, improved support for NTFS3 partitions, improved KVM support, and support for Flatpak apps.
