Linux Lite，是 [最好的类 Windows 发行版](https://itsfoss.com/windows-like-linux-distributions/) 之一，刚刚发布了它的最新版本 6.0。


Linux Lite 6.0 基于 [Ubuntu 22.04 LTS](https://news.itsfoss.com/ubuntu-22-04-release/)，内置了 [Linux 内核 5.15 LTS](https://news.itsfoss.com/linux-kernel-5-15-release/)。


这次升级包含了相当多的令人兴奋的新功能，包括一个新的窗口主题和无障碍技术。


让我们深入了解一下新的内容！


### Linux Lite 6.0 概述


Linux Lite 6.0 包括许多变化，包括：


* 更新了软件
* 新的窗口主题
* 新的屏幕键盘
* 屏幕阅读器
* 屏幕放大镜
* Chrome 取代 Firefox 成为默认浏览器
* 新的 GRUB 菜单


#### 无障碍性的改进

Linux Lite 通过这一改变已经步入了大联盟。无障碍性，在历史上一直是 GNOME 特有的优势，它现在有了很大的改进。这主要体现在三个不同的工具上：一个屏幕键盘，一个屏幕阅读器（Orca），和一个屏幕放大镜。


屏幕键盘对于许多触摸屏用户和没有键盘的用户来说是相当有用的。另一方面，屏幕阅读器对于视障用户来说将是完美的。

最后一项无障碍改进屏幕放大镜，也是针对与屏幕阅读器相同的受众。然而，它与传统的桌面理念相当吻合，所以众多用户可能更青睐它，而不是屏幕阅读器。


这些无障碍性的改进有助于 Linux Lite 6.0 成为一个主流的选择。


#### 更新的软件


与几乎所有的发行版升级一样，Linux Lite 6.0 包括更新的软件。最值得注意的是最新的 LibreOffice 稳定版 7.2.6。


其他更新包括 VLC 3.0.16、Thunderbird 91.7、Chrome 100、GIMP 2.10.30 等等。


虽然本身不一定是大规模的升级，但它表明了所包含的 LibreOffice 版本的重大变化。


以前，由于提供了更多的稳定性，Linux Lite 停留在更多老版本上。然而，Linux Lite 的开发者现在觉得使用最新的稳定版本也很放心，因为测试新 LibreOffice 版本的人比以往任何时候都多。


#### 新的窗口主题


![Linux Lite 6.0](/data/attachment/album/202206/03/181230s0xn8n8bz38j80w3.png)


Linux Lite 6.0 引入了一个新的窗口主题，叫做 “Materia”。那些主题社区的人可能会对它相当熟悉，因为它已经被移植到几乎所有的平台。这些平台包括 GTK 2、3 和 4、GNOME Shell、Budgie、Cinnamon、MATE、Unity、Xfce、LightDM、GDM，甚至是 Chrome 浏览器。


改用 Materia 应该会让 ChromeOS 用户感觉界面很熟悉，因为它是基于谷歌开发的 Material UI 的。


#### 谷歌 Chrome 浏览器成为新的默认浏览器


![Linux Lite 6.0](/data/attachment/album/202206/03/181230pwz4rkrh4r3knk8j.png)


随着 Ubuntu 将其 Firefox 版本转移到一个 Snap 应用中，Linux Lite 已经完全抛弃了 Firefox，转而使用谷歌 Chrome。虽然我不能说我是这个变化的粉丝，但它确实有意义，特别是对于一个针对 Windows 用户的发行版来说。


虽然你可以自由地安装任何你喜欢的东西，但无论如何，Chrome 是大多数用户的流行选择。


此外，如果你想在访问文件之前扫描文件，Linux Lite 的开发者在 Chrome 中包含了一个 Virus Total 扫描器扩展（默认是禁用的）。


注意，你可以从 Linux Lite 的软件中心安装 Firefox，但它是 Snap 版本的。


#### 系统监控中心替代了任务管理器


![Linux Lite 6.0](/data/attachment/album/202206/03/181231xfkcmw7x75e3bzbr.png)


Linux Lite 6.0 现在打包了<ruby> <a href="https://itsfoss.com/system-monitoring-center/">  系统监控中心 </a> <rt>  System Monitoring Center </rt></ruby> 来替代任务管理器和进程查看器。


请注意，Linux Lite 的开发者复刻了这个应用程序，在系统标签中提供了关于发行版的具体信息。


它提供了所有关注你的资源的必要功能。


### 其他改进


除了基本的变化之外，Linux Lite 6.0 还包括对 GRUB 菜单的更新、推送紧急修复包的能力、新的 whisker 菜单，以及更多的调整。

正如你所注意到的，新的 GRUB 菜单还包括关闭和重启，同时删除了内存测试选项。


你可以在其 [官方公告帖子](https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/release-announcements/linux-lite-6-0-final-released/) 中了解更多的技术细节。


### 总结


Linux Lite 6.0 看起来是一个可靠的版本，特别是对于那些等待无障碍功能和新的视觉感受的人。


如果你想自己尝试一下，ISO 文件可以从官方下载页面获得。

Linux Lite, one of the [best Windows-like distros](https://itsfoss.com/windows-like-linux-distributions/?ref=news.itsfoss.com), has just released its latest version, 6.0.

Linux Lite 6.0 is based on [Ubuntu 22.04 LTS](https://news.itsfoss.com/ubuntu-22-04-release/) and includes [Linux Kernel 5.15](https://news.itsfoss.com/linux-kernel-5-15-release/) LTS out of the box.

This upgrade packs in a considerable number of exciting new features, including a new window theme and assistive technologies.

Let’s dive into what’s new!

## Linux Lite 6.0: Overview

Linux Lite 6.0 includes numerous changes, including:

- Updated software
- New window theme
- New on-screen keyboard
- Screen reader
- Screen magnifier
- Firefox replaced by Chrome as the default browser
- New grub menu

### Accessibility Improvements

![Linux Lite 6.0](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2022/05/Screen-Reader-Linux-Lite-6.0.png)

Linux Lite has stepped up into the big leagues with this change. Accessibility, which has historically been a GNOME-specific advantage, has greatly improved. This comes in three different tools: An on-screen keyboard, a screen reader (Orca), and a screen magnifier.

The on-screen keyboard will be pretty useful for many touchscreen users and those without a keyboard. On the other hand, the screen reader will be perfect for sight-impaired users.

The final accessibility improvement, the screen magnifier, also targets the same audience as the screen reader. However, it is quite a bit more aligned with the traditional desktop philosophy, so it may be preferred by numerous users over the screen reader.

These accessibility improvements help bring Linux Lite 6.0 as a mainstream alternative.

### Updated Software

As with almost all distribution upgrades, Linux Lite 6.0 includes updated software. Most notable is the latest stable LibreOffice version, 7.2.6.

Other updates include VLC 3.0.16, Thunderbird 91.7, Chrome 100, GIMP 2.10.30, and more.

Although not necessarily a massive upgrade in itself, it demonstrates a significant change in the included LibreOffice version.

Previously, Linux Lite was held back with an older release due to the increased stability offered. However, the Linux Lite developers now feel comfortable using the latest stable release, with more people testing new LibreOffice versions than ever.

### New Window Theme

![Linux Lite 6.0](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2022/05/Materia-Linux-Lite-6.0.png)

Linux Lite 6.0 introduces a new window theme called ‘**Materia**.’ Those in the theming community will probably be quite familiar with it, as it has been ported to almost every platform. These include GTK 2, 3, and 4, GNOME Shell, Budgie, Cinnamon, MATE, Unity, Xfce, LightDM, GDM, and even Google Chrome.

The switch to Materia should bring a familiar interface to ChromeOS users, as it is based on the Material UI that Google develops.

### Google Chrome is the new default browser

![Linux Lite 6.0](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2022/05/Chrome-Linux-Lite-6.0.png)

With Ubuntu moving its Firefox version to a snap app, Linux Lite has completely ditched Firefox for Google Chrome. While I can’t say I’m a fan of this change, it does make sense, especially for a distro targeting Windows users.

While you are free to install anything you like, Chrome is a popular option for most users, no matter what.

Furthermore, Linux Lite developers include a Virus Total scanner extension (disabled by default) with Chrome if you want to scan files before accessing them.

Note that you can install Firefox from the Linux Lite’s software center, but it will install the snap package.

### System Monitor Center as a replacement for Task Manager

![Linux Lite 6.0](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2022/05/system-monitoring-center-linux-lite.png)

Linux Lite 6.0 now comes packed with the [System Monitoring Center](https://itsfoss.com/system-monitoring-center/?ref=news.itsfoss.com) to replace the task manager and the process viewer.

Note that Linux Lite developers have forked the application to provide specific information regarding the distribution in the system tab.

It offers all the essential functionalities to help you keep an eye on your resources.

## Other Improvements

In addition to the fundamental changes, Linux Lite 6.0 involves updates to the grub menu, the ability to push emergency fixes to packages, a new whisker menu, and many more tweaks.

As you can notice, the new grub menu also includes shut down and reboot while removing the memtest option.

You can explore more technical details in its [official announcement post](https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/release-announcements/linux-lite-6-0-final-released/?ref=news.itsfoss.com).

## Wrapping Up

Linux Lite 6.0 appears to be a solid release, especially for those waiting for accessibility features and visual refreshments.

The ISO file is available from the official download page if you want to try it out for yourself.
