Dragon Linux started out as a simple hobby project to bring Linux to the masses during an era of Linux not becoming mainstream. A time where software was NOT supported across the board like it is now. Now in the modern era of Linux development we came back to revive the project. We’ve worked hard in order to bring you a fully integrated distro, cooperating closely to get improvements and bug fixes to users as quickly as possible.
With Ubuntu’s excellent software and hardware support, you can expect a solid and high-quality experience without any unwanted surprises. Dragon Linux is based on Ubuntu Linux 25, the latest Ubuntu Linux release with the newest software versions across the board. We support most AMD and Intel CPU’s.
We are proud to offer KDE Plasma as our flagship desktop environment. With leading edge Wayland support and a highly customizable experience plus wide support for many hardware features, KDE Plasma is a joy to use on systems.
Want to use Night Color to keep your screen from disrupting your sleep cycle? No worries, it just works. Tweak your trackpad settings for a more comfortable experience? Everything’s right there in System Settings. Are things on screen too big or too small? Just adjust the display scale to your heart’s content, even in 5% increments. We’ve worked with the KDE project to bring you bug fixes and improvements to improve platform support, and we’ve also built a custom Calamares-based initial setup wizard so you can be up and running in no time with minimal fuss.
Dragon Linux 6.1 comes with KDE Plasma 6.3, with the latest patches and improvements to provide the premier desktop experience.
Dragon Linux comes out of the box with all of the essentials like Firefox, LibreOffice, Educational Apps, Video Games, Freetube, Spotify, and a whole LOT more! Dragon Linux offers a seamless and carefree expierence. Dragon Linux also comes with offline apps such as locally hostable AI options, offline wiki’s, and a whole ton more!
Dragon Linux ships the world’s first and only certified conformant OpenGL 4.6, OpenGL ES 3.2, OpenCL 3.0, and Vulkan 1.4 for Apple Silicon.
We support open graphics standards and test against official and industry-standard test suites, which means you can be confident that your apps and games will run correctly and render as they’re intended to. Dragon Linux unlocks the full potential of Apple Silicon graphics, well beyond what is possible by layering on top of vendor-proprietary APIs like Metal.
We’ve worked hard to pioneer the world’s first fully integrated DSP solution for the desktop Linux ecosystem. Just install Dragon Linux and enjoy high-quality audio right out of the box, no setup needed. We’ve worked together with the PipeWire and WirePlumber projects to add support for fully automatic and transparent DSP configuration, and then individually measured and calibrated 8+ different machine models, designing a customized DSP filter configuration for each one.
With our in-house Bankstown bass boost technology and our own pioneering open source Smart Amp implementation to safely provide full loudness and dynamic range, the result is the best audio you’ve ever heard on a Linux laptop. And we’ve even optimized the scheduling and power consumption of the DSP processing, so you’ll get excellent battery life while playing back audio.
