From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I have the itch: Distrohopping - MakuluLinux – A Whole World of Possibilities (www.makululinux.com)

I have an itch to test out some deb-based distributions. I use OpenSUSE. Although I don't want to switch distributions, I do want to experiment with some new feature-rich distros. I discovered this distribution MakuluLinux which appears to have numerous personalized desktops and a strong AI integration. Rhino Linux, which has rhino-pkg and a unique XFCE desktop, is another on my list. Any further recommendations?

For MakulukuLinux, to take full advantage of the AI , you have to pay to upgrade. I am an Arch user and tried it out for a bit, it was a bit limiting without unlocking the AI functions. Now, this was about 6 or so months ago, so it may have improved some.

My recommendation is to install qemu or VirtualBox or Gnome Boxes and test drive them there.

I have an older spare laptop to play on. But, yes I am not going to jeopardize my personal laptop just to play.
