Nitrux 2.1 Released with Support for Linux Kernel 5.17, Latest KDE Plasma Goodies

Uri Herrera announced today the release and general availability of Nitrux 2.1 as the latest stable version of this KDE Plasma oriented, systemd-free, and Debian-based GNU/Linux distribution.

Another month, another Nitrux release! Nitrux 2.1 is here still powered by the XanMod flavored Linux 5.16 kernel that was introduced in Nitrux 2.0, which has been updated to version 5.16.16, but it also adds support for the latest and greatest Linux 5.17 kernel series, which can be installed from the repositories.

As expected, Nitrux 2.1 also ships with some of the latest KDE Plasma updates, including the KDE Plasma 5.24.4 desktop environment released earlier this week, as well as the KDE Frameworks 5.92 and KDE Gear 21.12.3 software suites, all compiled against Qt 5.15.3.
