Chakra Linux
Chakra is a free, user-friendly and extremely powerful liveCD and/or distribution based on the award winning KDE Software Compilation. Chakra is by default a GTk free distribution specially made for run Qt based applications and frameworks at full performance.
HistoryChakra was born on the net, in a small shady corner of the Freenode network, where the KDEmod developers met one day and decided to create an awesome little liveCD based on Arch Linux. Of course these goals had to be emphasized a little bit more, and soon after the initial thoughts and discussions we started to write up plans, schedules and of course develop like there is no tomorrow, while not forgetting the fun and keeping it relaxed. Chakra is our baby. A lot of efforts, time and countless hours of writing code and testing stuff have been put into it so far, but that was just the beginning...
Currently Chakra has started his own path becoming an indenpendent distribution, with own repositories, packages and Kernel, an innovative half/rolling release cycle, a brigde between the stability to the latest applications, a bundle system that provides system integrated click'n'run applications and a source code based community repo.
GoalsOur goal with Chakra is to provide an operating system for desktops that is easy to use, but still has all the functionality, clarity, power and speediness of a KISS operating system. In the long term, we want to build an operating system that meets most requirements desktop users have today, like easy installation of software, graphical system administration, configuring power management on mobile devices or sharing an internet connection. To be better able to fulfill this goal, we strongly rely on users who report bugs, send in feature requests and ideas for improvements, and of course participate in development.
Although this might sound like a distro for Linux newbies, these are not our only target audience, Chakra is made also for techy people and competent GNU/Linux users with a passion for KDE, KISS and such stuff, who don't fear to get their hands dirty but want to set up a usable desktop system quickly and easily.
