Garuda Linux is an Arch Linux-based, Linux distribution targeted towards gaming.[2][3] It offers multiple desktop environments, but the KDE Plasma version is the default.[4] The distribution is named after Garuda, the divine eagle mount of the god Vishnu in Hinduism.[5]

Garuda Linux, being based on the Arch derivative Manjaro, features a rolling release update model using Pacman as its package manager.[2]

History

Garuda Linux was released on 26 March 2020 by Shrinivas Vishnu Kumbhar, a university student from India, and SGS from Germany.[6]

Features

Garuda Linux Welcome Page

The operating system provides GUIs for all operations, instead of focusing on the command line like Arch Linux.[7] Garuda Linux installation process is done with Calamares, a graphical installer. The bootloader used is GRUB. The distribution uses the btrfs file system by default which supports snapshots.[3] The snapshots can be accessed from the bootloader and support compression.[3] Garuda includes Manjaro's pamac GUI frontend for Pacman that allows for the installation of packages from pacman, Snap, and Flatpak packages.[8] Support for the AUR is provided by Chaotic-AUR. The command line can also be used. It also includes Garuda Settings Manager, a program for system settings such as the kernel, and Garuda Assistant for changing admin settings.[5] The main theme of Garuda Linux is a custom KDE Plasma theme known as Dr460nized (dragonized) which resembles a stylized macOS.[7]

Garuda Linux includes Garuda Gamer, a GUI offering easy installation of gaming related packages.[5][2]

The rolling release model results in all system software components getting updated during normal software updates, instead of waiting for major operating system version updates.[4]
