♞ Coming up on Runboxing ♞
Kaisen Linux , a Debian GNU/Linux-based desktop distribution aiming to be useful for IT professionals,
has been announced, codenamed "Rolling", version 1.8. Kaisen Linux is available with multiple
desktop environments, containing a set of tools for system administration that can be
used to diagnose and deal with failures of an installed system and its components. It
is stated that this version is actually a “1.7.1” version, therefore, there are
no significant changes in this version. It is stated that the next version will be the
2.x series based on the future Debian 12. The system that comes with b trfs support
cleans old dependencies that are not needed. All interfaces have support for OpenVPN client.

Kaisen Linux Rolling 1.8 changelog New revision of the rolling. Real final 1.x
release. Revision of the NETINST ISO.
Codename: Rolling
This release is in fact a "1.7.1". There are no changes to the distribution except for
some updates and additions and updates to the default profile.
When updating the tasksel tool which allows here to integrate the selection of tools as
well as the deactivation of services directly in the installer, the configurator was removed
and "broke" some things offered by the old configurator (launched post-installation).
The disabling of services as well as the complete installation of guests and the activation
of VirtualBox at startup if installed, can no longer be done via the tools provided for
Kaisen unless you update the ISO, which is done here.
This is the only reason and the only change since 1.7.
The lives systems have not had any changes except for the default profile which has been
updated. Changes made to the default profile and softwares
installed with interfaces:
Removal of visible dotfiles on Thunar (on the XFCE interface)
Add a launcher on the taskbar of the default text editor of each interface
Added gedit to the XFCE interface to provide a graphical text editor by default
The next release will be the 2.x series (really this time), based on the future Debian 12!
How to properly update the system?
sudo kaisen-update This is by no means mandatory, but I also
recommend that you use the kaisen-update-skel command to put the entire contents of /etc/skel
on the directory for all users. However this will make you lose your personalization on
your desktop environment, use it as a precaution.
How do I check if I am in version 1.8? Use this command:
cat /etc/debian-version This command should return "Rolling 1.8".
If you are using Kaisen Linux only as a live DVD version, download the ISO again rather
than doing the updates.
