Changelog GeckoLinux 150.180607:

This release of GeckoLinux STATIC is now in line with the latest openSUSE Leap 15.0 release. There are many, many new package versions in this release– the Linux kernel at version 4.12.14, Firefox Quantum 60, LibreOffice 6.0.4, and countless more available in the software repositories. The greatly improved Calamares installer at version 3.2 with updated versions of major underlying utilities will make installing GeckoLinux straightforward and reliable. (Note: the old yast2-live-installer that used to be available in GeckoLinux was deprecated by openSUSE a long time ago, and unfortunately it is no longer compatible with the current state of openSUSE.) Separate GeckoLinux STATICspins are available with a polished configuration for each of the following desktop environments:





  • Cinnamon version 3.6.7 (download here)
  • XFCE version 4.12 (download here)
  • Gnome version 3.26 (download here)
  • Plasma 5.12.5 and KDE Frameworks 5.45.0 and KDE Applications 17.12.3 (download here)
  • Mate version 1.20 (download here)
  • LXQt version 0.12.0 (download here)
  • GeckoLinux “BareBones” spin for advanced users and distro creators (download here)
  • Note: the Budgie Desktop spin of GeckoLinux is unavailable at the moment because it is not working properly under openSUSE.
