I present to you Voyager 24.10 in final version. A 2-in-1 variant with GNOME and Xfce desktops unified in a single distribution. All completely redesigned in a colorful style, the GNOME 47 desktop coupled with the Xfce 4.19 desktop. In summary, two unified systems, GNOME and Xfce, light, fast, modern, fluid, secure and efficient in a hybrid environment for PC and tablet. The two desktops are very distinct and their respective applications are mostly invisible, in one or the other environment. Once installed, you can also completely remove GNOME or Xfce, or re-install. This version is based on the Linux 6.11 kernel and the Ubuntu 24.10 distribution 'Oracular Oriole'. Voyager 24.10 is built around the official Ubuntu repositories and structures to avoid any security issues and confusion.
