The released candidate version of `Kumander Linux 3.0` is ready to provide a base with Debian 13.6 and Xfce 4.20 for users who miss the Windows 7 style. This distribution uses a mix of open-source and free software components, including LibreOffice 25.2, GIMP 3.0.4, and Chrome tools, and replaces some native Xfce functions to enhance the Windows 7 experience. The system occupies approximately 725 MB of memory, and installation requires 11 GB of space. It provides download links for applications like Steam and Ardour instead of pre-installation. Developer Roy Hoejgaard is responsible for the customization work. This distribution originates from the Philippines, named in honor of Commodore computers. Despite some minor issues such as misleading terminal prompts, its documentation is thorough, and the extended security update cycle makes it suitable for users who are tired of modern flat interfaces and seek stability.
