“SparkyLinux 4.0 Unveils Sleek New Flat Design and Icon Set, Built on Debian 8 Jessie – Breaking News from Softpedia”

I am thrilled to announce that Paweł Pijanowski has released the RC (Release Candidate) version of the highly-anticipated SparkyLinux 4.0. This cutting-edge computer operating system is now available for immediate download and testing. With its release, SparkyLinux 4.0 comes in two exciting flavors: LXDE and Openbox desktops.
With SparkyLinux 4.0 Release Candidate, the update experience is taken to new heights with an impressive array of updated packages from the upstream Debian 8 “Jessie” (Testing) and SparkyLinux software repositories. You can also look forward to a stunning new flat theme named Sparky4, an ultra-modern flat icon set called Ultra-Flat-Icons, and a captivating wallpaper named Vortex.
But that’s not all. The latest release features a cohesive design across all system elements, reinvents the layout of the desktop with a single panel on the bottom edge of the screen, and introduces a host of other visual enhancements. We’ve also added Pulse Audio Mixer in place of Gnome-Alsamixe for the LXDE edition, replaced XChat with HexChat as the default IRC client, and removed Wbar.
According to Paweł Pijanowski, the creator of SparkyLinux, the 4.0 RC version represents the culmination of suggestions from the devoted and engaged SparkyLinux community. Exciting new features include the integration of the revamped Live Installer, updates to the popular Boot-Repair utility, and improvements to the Sparky Backup System ISO building tool.
But there’s even bigger news in store for the final release of SparkyLinux 4.0. An extensive rebranding is taking place, transforming the distribution from Debian GNU/Linux to Sparky GNU/Linux. We’ve also addressed several bugs and made enhancements to Sparky applications, which can now be found on SourceForge git repositories.
Get ready to experience the future of Linux with SparkyLinux 4.0 RC LXDE and SparkyLinux 4.0 RC Openbox editions, available now for download on Softpedia. However, please note that these operating systems are still in the testing phase and are not recommended for use in production environments. Both 64 and 32-bit computer platforms are supported.
