Welcome to the official website of Furreto Linux.
Furreto Linux is an Arch Linux based Linux distribution aimed to be easy to use and ready out of the box. Whether it's for gaming, professional use, editing, etc.
Furreto Linux is a user-friendly distribution built on top of Arch Linux. Designed to be intuitive and accessible, Furreto Linux has been made with the purpose of making it easy to use, ready to be used in a few clicks and ready out of the box, whether it's for gaming, productivity, or creativity. Furreto Linux has all of that covered.
Furreto Linux is built using the KDE Plasma 6 desktop environment.
Plasma is a free and open-source desktop environment created by KDE, an international software community of volunteers. It has been designed to be simple by default for a smooth experience, but powerful when needed to help you really get things done.
Sure! Furreto Linux is a really customizable Linux distribution, you have the system in your own hands and you're free to do whatever you'd like with it!
There are lots of desktop environments you can choose, such as GNOME, LXQt, XFCE, LXDE, i3wm, bspwm, the choice is yours!
You can use the pacman package manager that Furreto uses to install another desktop environment.
The answer to that is, no.
We have made Furreto Linux with the intention of making it the most lightweight we possibly can. This means that we will not be installing pre-installed packages or software on the system. Furreto Linux comes only with KDE Plasma pre-installed and its utilities, it will only have Firefox preinstalled.
Furreto Linux has an in-built package selection in case you want to install Furreto Linux with some apps of your choice! This is a feature of our modified installer, however this is optional. If you just want to have a solid Furreto Linux installation with only KDE Plasma installed, then you're free to do so!
Our in-built package selection feature empowers users to customize their Furreto Linux experience from the outset. Whether you're a gamer, developer, designer, or simply have specific software preferences, our modified installer makes it easy to create a personalized Furreto Linux environment tailored to your requirements.
However, it's important to note that this package selection feature is entirely optional. If you prefer a streamlined Furreto Linux experience with only the essentials, fear not – our installer allows you to opt for a solid Furreto Linux installation with just the KDE Plasma desktop environment. This minimalist approach ensures a clean, efficient system, perfect for users who prioritize simplicity and performance.
This package selector includes the following categories:
Furreto Linux comes with a pre-installed welcome application that has some utilities that can make things a lot easier, this application has been made by us with the purpose of making the pacman package manager easier to use. And also to give some information about Furreto and such.
This application will show up at the first login of a new recently created user. This means that you will
only see this once after installing the system, however, this application is easy to be found on the
application launcher.
Just search up for the "Furreto Linux Welcome Center"
This application comes with lots of functionalities, such as...
If you do not wish to have this application on your system, you can easily uninstall it by doing

Furreto Linux uses the Calamares installer by default, the Calamares installer is a user-friendly installer that will guide you through the installation, it is well documented and designed. Thanks to Calamares you'll get Furreto Linux working in a few minutes, the installer will ask you things like, where are you from, how many packages you want to optionally install, what's your keyboard layout, how would you like to make the partitions, what username would you like to set, and at the end it will give you a quick summary about what's going to happen and what's going to be installed.
