OpenMandriva ROME 24.12 Released With KDE Plasma 6 Desktop By Default


For fans of OpenMandriva or just wanting to reminisce over the former Mandrake Linux days, OpenMandriva ROME 24.12 is out today as the newest update to this Linux distribution.

OpenMandriva ROME 24.12 adds new Proton and Proton-Experimental packages for that Wine downstream that can be run outside of Steam. OpenMandriva ROME 24.12 also features the Linux 6.12.1 kernel while continuing to be built against the LLVM Clang compiler rather than GCC. There are also many other package updates such as Qt 6.9, LibreOffice 24.8.3, LLVM/Clang 19.1.4, Glibc 2.40, systemd 256.9, and the newest Mesa 24.3 graphics drivers.
