Ultimate (MANJARO) Edition

Ultimate (MANJARO) Edition 

By the way, it is MANJARO based and I did not have problems with GRUB.

With this my criticisms of Manjaro ends for good 

No problem with GRUB and no hesitation to recommend it to a newbie.

It is plasma 6.5 and I am not a KDE supporter by default. 

It is using 1.3GB of my 7.3GB RAM at idle which is remarkable.

It is using 14.9GB of my 23.9GB /root partition and I have 9GB free space.

No Synaptic Package Manager but I would get my AbiWord and I am happy without LibreOffice.

I got, Audacity, Firefox and Blender.

Transmission and Deluge added.

With all that 3.7GB of my spare space is left. 

This is why I say Linux and ARCH Rocks.

Dolphin is mandatory.

VLC is already there.

OBS is already there.

Thank to All at Ultimate Gamers.

By the way, I am not a gamer in my old age. I only play little kid's games.

Ultimate Linux is a gamer distribution I have not tested for ages.

These guys quietly do their work without funfair and they have come out with their latest image in December, 2025. 

I am going to install it on top of Manjaro, since Manjaro cannot coexist with other ARCH distributions.

It has grown huge and is 6.8GB in size.

Single-button upgrade is one of several special characteristics of this distribution.

Ultimate Gamers Edition

 

Most of these games age already bundled up in Debian Gnome in 64 bit format.
 

I have not tested but Ultimate Arch Gamers also have bundled their own game pack.

 

Even though, it is 4.4GB the Box Utility of Debian it mounts in a Virtual Session, bringing nostalgia of 32 bit era.

 

It has GDebi Package installer and that it means it is updated to current use and once installed one can install even my favorite Abiword. 

 

Being a gamer, it has no office packages.

I have no hesitation to recommend using it by a newbie or an old hand like me in Linux.

 

Thank YOU guys and Girls developing Ultimate Gamers Edition.

 

I have included in my book "Linux Essentials" in the Gamers section.

 

I am not a fan of MATE and I have not used MATE as a regular user and that is why this Distribution has missed my attention.

 

By the way, I am not a fan of ARCH Linux but ARCH has come up with (Storm, Blue Star Linux, Arco Linux) many editions.

 

Blue Star Linux was 4.7GB and is a very elegant distribution only my lack of experience in ARCH Linux keep me not using it.

 

Manjaro is on top of my selections.

 

I am too, old to learn new tricks and I am happy with Debian.

 

It took almost two hours to download Blue Star Linux by torrents with only 3 seeders. 

I used my old Laptop. 

I use my Laptop (500GB but only half full after loading with all the Linux images) to store store all the Linux images, since my NUC has no space. 

Already filled with over 50 Iso images, mostly old Puppy Linux my favorite.

 

Linux Mint

Mx Linux

Debian

4M Linux (version 5 did not have seeders). 

Majaro

Blue Star Linux

 

By the way, Netrunner KDE derivative has become one of my favorite distributions which has many attributes.

 

Ultimate Gamers Edition is an open source and completely free Linux kernel based operating system derived from the world’s most popular distribution of Linux, Ubuntu, and designed from the ground up for hardcore Gamers. 

The Gamers flavour of the Ultimate Edition Linux operating system is distributed as a Live DVD ISO image that has approximately 4GB in size,    it supports both 32 bit (x86) and 64 bit (x86_64) hardware platforms, but contains software packages optimized only for the 32 bit architecture. It can be written to either a DVD disc or a USB thumb drive of 4GB or higher capacity.
Being designed from the ground up as a Live DVD, the Ultimate Gamers Edition distribution will allow the user to use the entire system directly from the bootable medium, in live mode. By default, it will start automatically when you boot the ISO image from the BIOS of a PC, but various advanced boot options are available on the boot menu.
The distribution’s default and only graphical desktop environment is powered by LXDE (Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment), which uses a traditional single panel layout for a productive and very fast desktop experience.
