Robolinux has released its 6th update to its 3 new highly stable R12 rolling release versions.
R12.07 comes with hundreds of improvements, security and application updates
The Robolinux R12 rolling release LTS versions were built and tested over the course of nine months starting out with the 20.04 code base and then 21.04 and 21.10 kernels, compilers and libraries. The current Robolinux R12 rolling release comes with the newest 5.15 Linux kernel, gcc9 C compilers, libraries and new applications while also providing highly stable LTS software packages simultaneously. This gives Robolinux users access to the Debian & Ubuntu Developers' monthly OS improvements such as faster boot up and shutdown speeds along with a continuous path to the most current hardware support and access to installing and using the newest software applications along with the ability to install the 20.04 LTS stable software as well. We call this the best of both worlds! If you find any issues please report them to Robolinux via our website contact webpage: https://robolinux.org/contact-us.html
