Drauger OS

Drauger OS is a Linux desktop gaming operating system. It aims to provide a platform for gamers to use where they can get great performance without sacrificing their security. Furthermore, it aims to make it easy for anyone to game, whether they use a keyboard and mouse, or some sort of controller.

Since Drauger OS is based on Ubuntu LTS releases, it is stable, secure, and receives updates from the Ubuntu repositories for 5 years (even if a given Drauger OS release is not supported the full 5 years by Drauger OS Development.)

Drauger OS is an Ubuntu-based Linux desktop gaming distribution that ships with many modifications and optimizations over stock Ubuntu that are intended to improve gaming performance and the gaming experience. From simple changes such as swapping Gnome out for the light-weight Xfce Desktop Environment and using a dark GTK theme by default, to more complex changes such as using a kernel compiled in-house and replacing PulseAudio with Pipewire. Drauger OS is built from the ground up with our primary focus on performance.

Drauger OS is NOT for everyday use. For this reason, it does not come with some otherwise common non-gaming applications, such as audio and video editing software (i.e. Audacity and Kdenlive) or an Office Suite (i.e. LibreOffice).

Furthermore, Drauger OS is NOT based on Arch, Fedora, or Solus. There are not any plans to rebase Drauger OS to another distro. For various reasons, most other distributions would not fit the desired outcome for Drauger OS and would require copious amounts of work to get to the point we are at now. This is not to say they are not good distributions, but rather they do not fit our vision of where to take Drauger OS and do not fit our development process.
