matthew - retroedge.techThis distro is a bit of a surprise.
I am not sure what exactly makes it PClinuxOS, if the base is Debian. It does have the extra software tools that usually come with PClinuxOS.
It has a recent 7.0.* Linux kernel. Has xLibre installed by default.
PClinuxOS is a rolling release, but the repositories for this appear to be Debian Trixie... so is this not a rolling release Linux?
SysV init version: 3.14 - so no SystemD
Would be great to chat with someone who knows more about this Distribution.

@archlinux respect.
@XLibreDev the long-term kick-back is entirely predictable.

We released the #XLibre Xserver versions 25.0.0.23 and 25.1.5 on Apr 28. They re-export some Glamor APIs used by #xorgxrdp, correct an xrandr "BadMatch" error introduced by a backport from the X.Org Server, and provide some other fixes. https://github.com/X11Libre/xserver/releases/tag/xlibre-xserver-25.1.5
