PAE
capability are supported on the same terms as PAE-enabled ones. The only difference between the two Bodhi versions is that an older kernel is used.

Support

Bodhi Linux is derived from the

Ubuntu long term support releases
(14.04, 16.04, 18.04...), so support follows the same pattern: Security bug fixes are released daily throughout the five years. As opposed to Ubuntu, Bodhi has no short-term support release. An installed Bodhi Linux can be upgraded to the latest state via the command line or package manager.

Release cycle

Releases are numbered x.y.z, where

  • x represents a major release,
  • y represents an update (or point) release and
  • z represents a bug fix release.

The major release (x.y.z; e.g. version 2.y.z > 3.0.0) follows the Ubuntu long-term support with a delay of a few months. The goal is to deliver a new major release in July every other year following the new Ubuntu LTS, which is expected in April. New functionality is not added after the release.

The update/point release (x.y.z; e.g. version 2.3.z > 2.4.0) is similar to point releases in Ubuntu (12.04.1, 12.04.2,...). They are used for delivering new software versions and other improvements which are not related to security. Between 2011 and 2013 there was

ARM support.[8][9]

Beginning with version 2.4.0 update frequency was reduced to three times a year. Bodhi Linux 2.4.0 (originally planned for release in August 2013) appeared late in mid-September.[10] A bug fix release (x.y.z; e.g. version 2.4.0 > 2.4.1) was released to fix configuration bugs.

The Bodhi Linux 3.0.0 branch was released in February 2015 with an additional "legacy" version for older hardware.[11]

R_Pi Bodhi Linux

The R_Pi Bodhi Linux

ARM architecture with ARMv6 architectural additions, provides enormous performance gains for many use cases. However, this requires significant effort to port elements of Debian Wheezy to be comparable with ARMv6 CPUs, as official builds require ARMv7.[29] Because of the effort to build a working release, the ARMHF release is not officially supported anymore.[9]

deBodhi Linux

deBodhi Linux 7.0 is a version of Bodhi Linux based on Debian 12 (Bookworm). It is currently in beta.[30]
