Manjaro XFCE v18.0 Beta 3 new fast and impressive

Manjaro XFCE v18.0 Beta 3: The Manjaro distribution is based on Arch Linux and aims to make things easier for novice Linux users.

Installing Manjaro is simple and can be done with two different applications with a graphical environment but also traditionally through the terminal.

The distribution is very fast and its menus are instantly responsive, but the really special feature and what makes it stand out is that it is scrollable (rolling release) και πάντα με "φρέσκο" λογισμικό. Όλο το σύστημα αναβαθμίζεται με μια μόνο εντολή και φέρνει αρκετά από τα νεώτερα χαρακτηριστικά που υπάρχουν διαθέσιμα, όπως νέα filesystems (Ext2/3/4, Reiser, XFS, JFS), LVM2/EVMS, Raid , υποστήριξη udev, initcpio, και πολλά άλλα.

Distribution for the uninitiated can be done by installing software directly from Arch repositories. The function is aimed at distributing programs that were not modified by developers (vanilla versions), but also for packages that have been modified by the Arch community.

So yesterday Manjaro's team released the third beta of Manjaro XFCE v18.0.

Εγκατέστησα τη νέα έκδοση και μέχρι σήμερα δεν έχω ανακαλύψει κάτι που δεν πάει καλά, αν και την "πείραξα" πάρα πολύ για να "έρθει" κοντά στις προτιμήσεις μου. Για παράδειγμα δεν χρησιμοποιώ το XFCE DE, αλλά το τελευταίο KDE Plasma.

Nevertheless, the distribution works perfectly. Automatically finds and installs drivers for wireless connections, and default Kernel is available linux 4.16.17.  However, the options provided by the Manjaro Settings application for Kernel upgrade, reach up to version 4.18 RC1.

What the new beta brings:

• updated adapt-may-themes with new customized Manjaro-style whiskermenu
• the last Pamac
• improved installation with Squid
• updates in almost all XFCE packages

The distribution, apart from the speed of response to your every click, also brings new graphics that will excite you. Beta 3 seems to be already close to the final version of 18, as there do not seem to be any major bugs.

Here to mention that I installed the new version in my daily computer, and not on one I use for testing.
