Based on the recently released Debian GNU/Linux 8.1 (Jessie) operating system, the first snapshot of the upcoming SteamOS 2.0 operating system is powered by Linux kernel 3.18 LTS, which has been injected with some extra SteamOS patches. However, the Alchemist branch of SteamOS is still supported with security updates, but it will be replaced by Brewmaster in the near future.
