Description

Ultimate Edition, first released in December 2006, was a fork of Ubuntu and Linux Mint though recent versions (starting in 2024) have been based on Arch Linux. The goal of the project is to create a complete, seamlessly integrated, visually stimulating, and easy-to-install operating system. Single-button upgrade is one of several special characteristics of this distribution. Other main features include custom desktop and theme with 3D effects, support for a wide range of networking options, including WiFi and Bluetooth, and integration of many extra applications and package repositories.

Very nice in Live environment, but as soon as I tried to install e everything changed. Something due to faulty package openers? My Asus B75M-A mobo, Intel i3, 3220 quad CPU, ATI 4350 GPU and 16GiB of RAM and 'no-go'. Only other distro I've ever had a problem installing were the BSD group, they don't like the old ATI video card, no problemo though. Just uninstall the video card and let the built-in Intel video take over and it's done. So, I'm not sure what's going g on here with Ultimate Arch. Really sad though, it looked and ran fine from the USB stick.
