A Unique New Linux Distro Zinc
21In This Video We Are Looking At Zinc is based on the latest long-term support (LTS) version of Ubuntu. XFCE serves as the distribution’s default desktop environment. Now, you might be thinking to yourself, “If I want Ubuntu with XFCE, I can just download the official Xubuntu remix.” And, if that’s all you want, you would be right. The thing is, though, Zinc is much more than just a stock copy of Ubuntu running XFCE.

Zinc is a new Linux distribution based on Ubuntu LTS with Xfce desktop. It is based on Xubuntu but aims to provide a more functional desktop with better defaults.

Xfce desktop with a top panel and a dock on the left side
Dark themed to reduce eye strain
Latest HWE-edge kernel from Ubuntu – Currently at v5.15 for 22.04. Newer mainline kernels are not used to avoid compatibility issues with Nvidia, VirtualBox, and wireless drivers.

Latest DEB version of Firefox from Mozilla’s official repositories
Calamares Installer instead of Ubiquity
Drop-down terminal for running commands in the background – Mapped to F1 key
Better VirtualBox support – Auto-resize display to match the host resolution, and access shared folders from the Live system session
