Yoper is a high-performing operating system that's customized for i686 or even higher processor-based PCs. The system is optimized to deliver better performance for intensive computing tasks.
You'll find hardware performance on Yoper to be as good or even better than commercial operating systems. Its latest release, 3.0.1, brings Kernel 2.6.21.1, X.Org 7.3, KDE 3.5.7, KOffice 1.6.3, Firefox 2.0.0.7, and a range of cutting-edge desktop packages. The stable release also offers a kernel with the SD scheduler, while the unstable repository has the CFS scheduler for performance comparisons. There are over 500 new/updated packages and bug fixes/cleanups to make the most of Yoper's performance.
The Smart upgrade function makes it easy to update packages, and the differences between 3.0 and 3.0.1 are minor and visual. Meanwhile, the 3.1 Beta Development Release aims to define a faster, slicker desktop look with Linux kernel 2.6.23, X.Org 7.3, KDE 3.5.9, KOffice 1.6.3, Firefox 2.0.0.14, and more desktop environments. Fluxbox, Xfce, and KDE 4 are all options, and Yoper has integrated the ARK Linux security concept and separated desktop environments to improve user experience.
If you're in need of a high-performing, standards-based Linux OS, Yoper is definitely worth considering.
