Mageia is a Linux-based operating system, distributed as free and open source software. It is forked from the Mandriva Linux distribution.[4][5] The Greek term mageía (μαγεία) means enchantment, fascination, glamour, wizardry.[6]


The first release of the software distribution, Mageia 1, took place in June 2011.[7][8]

History


Mageia was created in 2010 as a fork of Mandriva Linux,[4][5][9] by a group of former employees of Mandriva S.A. and several other developers and users and supporters of the Mandriva community.


On September 2, 2010, Edge IT, one of the subsidiaries of Mandriva, was placed under liquidation process by the Tribunal de commerce in Paris;[10][11] effective by September 17, all assets were liquidated and employees were let go.


The next day, on September 18, 2010, some of these former employees, who were mostly responsible for the development and maintenance of the Mandriva Linux distribution, and several community members announced the creation of Mageia, with the support of many members of the community of developers, users and employees of Mandriva Linux.[12]



Desktop environments


Mageia can use all major desktop environments. As was the case with Mandrake and Mandriva Linux, KDE is the main and the most used environment. End-users can choose from KDE and GNOME 64 bit Live DVD editions, 32 bit and 64 bit Xfce live DVD editions, and any environment in full DVD installation edition .


It uses Mageia Control Center. LXDE, LXQt, Cinnamon, MATE and Enlightenment are also available.



Application Repository


Mageia offers a very large repository of software, such as productivity applications and a large variety of games. It was the first Linux distribution where MariaDB replaced Oracle's MySQL.[13]



Development


Mageia is planned to be released on a 9-month release cycle, with each release to be supported for 18 months.[14]


The latest stable version is Mageia 6, released in July 2017.

Gabbro

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP A coarse-grained mafic intrusive rock Gabbro Photomicrograph of a thin section of gabbro Gabbro ( / ˈ ɡ æ b r oʊ / ) is a phaneritic (coarse-grained), mafic intrusive igneous rock formed from the slow cooling of magnesium-rich and iron-rich magma into a holocrystalline mass deep beneath the Earth's surface. Slow-cooling, coarse-grained gabbro is chemically equivalent to rapid-cooling, fine-grained basalt. Much of the Earth's oceanic crust is made of gabbro, formed at mid-ocean ridges. Gabbro is also found as plutons associated with continental volcanism. Due to its variant nature, the term "gabbro" may be applied loosely to a wide range of intrusive rocks, many of which are merely "gabbroic".
