EXTON OpSuS Tumbleweed LXQt 2.2.0-1.1 64 bit UEFI Linux Live System with Refracta Snapshot - Build 250515

EXTON OpSuS Tumbleweed is based on openSUSE Tumbleweed, which is a rolling distribution. I.e. no need for new installations. Just run the command "sudo zypper dup" and you will always get the latest stable packages/kernels. The ISO file is of 3070 MB. The LXQt version will thus run very fast from a DVD or a USB stick. Even in VirtualBox/VMware directly from the ISO file.

ABOUT Tumbleweed
"With Tumbleweed you don't have to take difficult decisions about things you value, either freedom or safety, either control or security, technology or stability -- Tumbleweed lets you have your cake and eat it too". READ MORE: https://get.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/

ABOUT EXTON OpSuS for PC's
EXTON OpSuS Tumbleweed with LXQt 2.2.0-1.1 uses kernel 6.14.6-amd64-exton. Installed programs: Among many other programs, Firefox, NetworkManager, GParted and VLC . EXTON OpSuS can easily be installed to hard drive (of those who so desire). For that you shall use Refracta Installer. All packages have been updated to the latest available version as of May 15, 2025.
NOTE1: When the boot process is ready you will end up at SDDM login screen. You can only log in to the LXQt Desktop as user with password live. You will see this first screen when logged in to LXQt: https://opsus.exton.se/lxqt-250515/e...een-250515.jpg
NOTE2: If you want to run the system as root you shall press Ctrl Alt F1 simultaneously to leave X. Log in as root with password root. Then run the command startx. You will then enter the LXQt 2.2.0 Desktop. When logged in as root you won't have sound. Watch a screenshot of the Desktop for root: https://opsus.exton.se/lxqt-250515/e...top-250515.jpg
NOTE3: Version 250515 of EXTON OpSuS can run on really old computers. As an example I could run it on my 17 years old laptop Acer Aspire 5102 WLMi.
NOTE4: Use Refracta Snapshot to build your very own version of EXTON OpSuS/openSUSE.

IS EXTON OpSuS Deepin/LXQt BUILD 250515 UNIQUE?
If you have a look at openSUSE's official Download site you can see that there is no live LXQt version available. EXTON OpSuS Build 250515 is most certainly UNIQUE in one respect. There is no other distro based on openSUSE containing Refracta Snapshot!
