Revision of Trisquel 12.0 "Ecne" release announcement from Sat, 04/11/2026 - 21:02
The revisions let you track differences between multiple versions of a post.
Our ever expanding project got to version 12.0, codename "Ecne"!
==Editions==
* '''Trisquel'''. MATE (v1.26.1) continues to be our default desktop environment. Simple, with great accessibility, and low hardware requirements (no 3D acceleration needed).
* '''Triskel'''. Our KDE (v5.27) edition is excellent for customizing the design and functionality in fine detail.
* '''Trisquel Mini'''. Running LXDE (v0.99.2), the Mini edition is a lightweight desktop perfect for netbooks, old computers and users with minimal resource usage needs.
* '''Trisquel Sugar''' or Trisquel On A Sugar Toast ('''TOAST'''): Based on the Sugar learning platform (v0.121), TOAST comes with dozens of educational activities for children.
* '''Network installer image''': To deploy with a command-line install interface, it is ideal for servers and advanced users who want to explore custom designed environments. GNOME users will be happy to find that '''Trisquel GNOME''' environment has been added to the tasksel step on the d-i installer.
Thanks to Rubén and the rest of developers for providing us with two more years of Trisquel, now we have guaranteed support for two more years of the best Libre Software distribution.
Wish that it had taken less than three years to make it - Aramo was just thirteen months away from running out of support, you got me nervous there.
Thank you to everyone involved with this OS, it has been a very good friend to me these 13 years I've been using it (I just looked and apparently yesterday was my Trisquel anniversary!). I switched to it from Windows in 2013, and haven't looked back.
Congratulations Team Trisquel! Will Ecne work on repairable laptops made by companies like Framework and Libre 64?
Freedom never looked so good! I really like the new default wallpaper and overall theme.
Congratulations! I've been using Trisquel since 2021, and just upgraded to 12. Thank you for all your work on this operating system.
