Mageia 5, an awesome release!
Posted: Aug 14th, '18, 11:47
Now, that Mageia 5 is officially out of date (https://blog.mageia.org/en/), I would like to thank to all mageicians
that developed and supported this fine release! Wadda an awesome rease it was!
I haven't experienced more stable and refined KDE4 release (not even Debian 8, Kubuntu 14.04, CentOS 7 and many others).
I still use it as a production desktop, media platform, gaming, sci. calculations, programming.
And believe me, I have abused this system a loooot ... not a single crash, none! This is especially true for Mageia 5.1 release.
Maybe I was lucky with my hardware. However, I take good care of it. Mageia 5, it almost turned as a LTS release . It was released around Aug 2015 (if I am not wrong) and was supported (partially) till 30 Jul 2018. Who said Mageia has no LTS? Anyway, I think soon I have to upgrade to Mageia 6 and I hope I won't be dissapointed because so far my nVidia card doesn't like much Plasma 5. I will be waiting for Mageia 6.1 release and then upgrade.
What was your experience with M5?
Thanks once again,
A.
