Centrych is an open source distribution of Linux based on the world’s most popular operating system, Ubuntu, and built around the modern KDE Plasma desktop environment. It was heavily inspired by the centrist philosophy.
The distro can be downloaded via Softpedia or directly from its official website (see link above) as two Live DVD ISO image or approximately 1.5GB in size, deployable on either 32-bit (i386) or 64-bit (x86_64) hardware platforms.
Besides the fact that it uses a custom logo, the boot prompt on the Live DVDs is identical with the one on the official Ubuntu release. It is engineered to automatically start the live environment with default boot options.
However, the user can access the boot menu by pressing any keyboard key during the 10-second timeout, from where he or she can start the graphical installer to permanently install the OS on a local drive, check the integrity of the bootable medium (only if using a CD media), run a memory test or boot from the first disk.
By default the Live DVDs will boot into the KDE Plasma desktop environment, which has been designed in such a way that it looks like a traditional graphical interface with a single-panel layout.
Default applications include the GIMP image editor, Mozilla Firefox web browser, Kopete instant messenger, Mozilla Thunderbird email and news client, Clementine music player, VLC Media Player, Kid3 audio tagger, K3b CD/DVD/BD burning software, Audex Audio-CD ripper, and LibreOffice office suite.
Originally designed as a Debian-based small office server, Centrych is now an easy-to-use and very stable desktop-oriented operating system that offers a unified look and feel, supporting both GNOME/GTK+ and KDE/Qt applications under the same roof.
What's new in Centrych 12.04.3:
- This release upgrades the desktop to Xfce4 4.10.2+ and includes the 4.11 versions of xfwm4 and xfce4-session, both of which have been modified with the oxygen theme.
- The Centrych desktop profile gets a customized notification theme and both profiles now use whiskermenu as the default.
- The GNOME and KDE services are no longer started on default, which provides additional RAM savings and shortens login time.
