Status

You really think you can get GNOME here? GNOME deleted all other init support. Take a walk.

Not available

  • Budgie — not in any Artix repo (system, world, galaxy, lib32). Slideshow entries removed.
  • GNOME — see above.

No Desktop

Installs the base system only (TTY/login). Useful for servers or custom setups.
