Budgie is the flagship desktop of the Evolve OS Linux Distribution, and is an Evolve OS project. Designed with the modern user in mind, it focuses on simplicity and elegance. A huge advantage for the Budgie desktop is that it is not a fork of another project, but rather one written from scratch with
... [More] integration in mind.
The Budgie Desktop tightly integrates with the GNOME stack, employing underlying technologies to offer an alternative desktop experience. In the spirit of open source, the project is compatible with and available for other Linux distributions.
Also note that Budgie can now emulate the look and feel of the GNOME 2 desktop, optionally, via a setting in the panel preferences. [Less]
Automated CVE Checking Tool
cve-check-tool, as its name suggests, is a tool for checking known (public) CVEs. The tool will identify potentially vunlnerable software packages within Linux distributions through version matching. Where possible it will also seek to determine (through a distribution
... [More] implemention) if a vulnerability has been addressed by way of a patch. [Less]
clr-boot-manager exists to enable the correct maintenance of vendor kernels and appropriate garbage collection tactics over the course of upgrades. The implementation provides the means to enable correct cohabitation on a shared boot directory, such as the EFI System Partition for UEFI-booting
... [More] operating systems.
Most importantly, clr-boot-manager provides a simple mechanism to provide kernel updates, with the ability for users to rollback to an older kernel should the new update be problematic. This is achieved through the use of strict namespace policies, permanent source paths, and clr-boot-manager's own internal logic, without the need for "meta packages" or undue complexity on the distribution side.

Tool to report actual VM boot times
This tool utilises communication between the host Linux distribution and the guest Linux distribution by way of a socket, measuring the actual start time from the very moment the process is invoked, up to the point the system is fully booted and usable (as
... [More] determined by its own profile and service configuration)
It can be used to start many VMs in parallel to identify bottlenecks and assess systems performance, both guest and host, as well as detailing total boot time for multiple VMS and the average.
Each report is also accompanied by the internal concept of boot time (as made available via systemd-analyze) so that the delta between real boot and VM internal boot can easily be seen. [Less]
