Available Release Distribution Calculate Linux 21 developed by the Russian-speaking community built on the basis of Gentoo Linux supporting Continuous update release cycle and optimized for rapid deployment in a corporate environment. The new release presents the Calculate Container Games build with a container to start games from Steam, the packages are selected by the GCC 10.2 compiler and packaged using ZSTD compression, significantly accelerated synchronization of Calculate Linux Desktop user profiles,
The default BTRFS file system is activated.
The following version of the distribution kit is available for download: Calculate Linux Desktop with KDE Desk (CLD), Mate (CLDM), LXQT (CLDL), CINNAMON (CLDC) and XFCE (CLDX and CLDXE), Calculate Directory Server (CDS), Calculate Linux Scratch (CLS) and Calculate SCRATCH Server (CSS). All versions of the distribution are distributed as a bootable Live image for X86_64 systems with the possibility of installing a hard diction or a USB drive (support for 32-bit architectures is stopped).
Calculate Linux is compatible with the Gentoo portage, uses the OpenRC initialization system and applies the ROLLING-model of updates. The repository has more than 13 thousand binary packages. Live USB includes both open and proprietary video drivers. Multi-loading and modification of the boot image using Calculate utilities is supported. The system supports working with the Calculate Directory Server domain with centralized authorization in LDAP and storing user profiles on the server. The composition of the Calculate specially designed for the Calculate project is a selection of utilities for configuring, assembling and installing the system. Remedies are provided to create specialized ISO images adapted to user tasks.
