Built using Tmosb 1.9.9, TheeMahn’s operating system builder utility, which is pre-installed in the distribution and can be used to build your own Ubuntu flavor, Ultimate Edition 5.5 is here with up-to-date components and applications, and has been fully synced with the upstream repositories to include all the latest security updates. The Ultimate Edition 5.5 distro was built on a computer powered by JackHammer, an AMD Ryzen 7 1700X Octa-Core processor running at 3,700 MHz. The operating system is designed to run only on 64-bit machines, and runs the linux-generic-4.10.0-25 kernel from Ubuntu 17.04 (Zesty Zapus). The default desktop environment is KDE Plasma 5.
