The KDE neon development team has announced the release of KDE neon 6.2, which is built on the new Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (Noble Numbat) operating system series.
KDE neon is based on a long-term supported version of Ubuntu and offers the latest KDE software along with the Plasma desktop environment. Its rolling release model allows users to avoid the hassle of downloading new ISO images or reinstalling their systems.
Every two years, the KDE neon developers rebase the distribution on the newest Ubuntu LTS series. This week marks the rebasing of KDE neon to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (Noble Numbat). This update not only brings the latest security patches and software enhancements but also includes a newer kernel to improve hardware compatibility.
Users of KDE neon will receive a notification on their screens in the upcoming days prompting them to upgrade to KDE neon 6.2, which is powered by Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. Before proceeding with the upgrade, it is advisable to back up your important files to avoid any potential data loss.
If you haven’t received a notification or wish to speed up the upgrade process, you can manually update your KDE neon installations by following the Noble Upgrade instructions provided by the developers of KDE neon.
Additionally, there is a new ISO release of KDE neon 6.2 available for those looking to install the Ubuntu-based distribution on new machines or to reinstall their current systems. For those curious, the latest KDE neon ISO image comes with the newly launched KDE Plasma 6.2 desktop environment pre-installed.
