Chakra GNU / Linux is a distribution that uses the latest KDE software. So OS users can now have KDE Plasma 5.9.2 as a desktop environment, which is the next release of the Plasma 5.9 series.

In addition, the distribution update users will be able to update to the new KDE Applications 16.12.2 software suite as well as the KT Framework 5 add-ons for Qt5.26.0.

As part of today's update, users of the distribution will be able to have a new kernei which was upgraded to the Linux kernel 4.5.7. We hope that the developers of Chakra GNU / Linux will soon approve 4.6 Linux kernel.

The new updated distribution also includes some of the recent applications: ALSA 1.1.3, FFmpeg 2.8.11, Wine 2.2, GStreamer 1.10.3, Vim 8.0.0142, Mozilla 45.7.1, FileZilla 3.24.0, Bash 4.4.005, Samba 4.5.3, Wireshark 2.2.4, LibreOffice 5.2.5, QEMU 2.8.0, GNU Screen 4.5.0, GNU nano 2.7.4, GDB 7.12, Gawk 4.1.4, 3.5.8, Gutenprint 5.2.12, JACK 0.125.0, GNU Make 4.2.1, MariaDB 10.1.21, MPlayer 37916, PostgreSQL 9.6.1, Python 2.7.13, PHP 7.0.15, SQLite 3.16.0, and GNU Texinfo.

To update, simply open your terminal, run the command "pacman -Syu", just like for the Arch Linux operating system.

According to the developer, if you encounter a problem during installation (dark screen) you can switch to tty3 with Ctrl+Alt+F3 and then back to Plasma session with Ctrl+Alt+F7. If that doesn't work just wait patiently for the installation to complete without closing it you.
