Based on the Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS (Xenial Xerus) and Debian GNU/Linux 8 “Jessie” operating systems, Linux For All (LFA) Build 170121 appears to be a total rebuilt of the GNU/Linux distribution, having nothing in common with any of the previous releases. It now uses the newest Linux 4.9.5 kernel and latest package versions. Also installed in the new Linux for All release is the Google Chrome web browser, which can be used for watching Netflix movies online, along with the LXDE (Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment) desktop environment, which replaces Ubuntu’s Unity user interface. The Nvidia 375.26 proprietary graphics driver is also installed by default.
