It is no doubt that Fedora is steadily becoming an amazing option for desktop Linux, in many cases outperforming Ubuntu and OpenSUSE. And yet, despite its amazing features, great support, and beautiful default experience, there always seems to be some things that aren’t there. Many desktops, multimidea codecs, and non-free applications are not available on Fedora Linux by default without some heavy tinkering. And it is that problem, that Ultramarine Linux attempts to solve. Ultramarine Linux is a Fedora based, open sourced distro that attempts to make the experience more usable by adding the option for more desktops, external repositories, and codecs that aren’t available on the regular Fedora. So, after giving it a spin, I’m going to show you what makes Ultramerine tick, and why you might want to check it out.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
