An Ubuntu-LTS-based distribution built on the lightweight LXDE desktop, explicitly targeted at giving old computers -- particularly ones headed for e-waste -- a useful second life.

LXDE

LXLE tracks only Ubuntu's LTS releases, prioritizing long-term stability, and pairs that base with LXDE, one of the lightest full desktop environments available, plus a custom set of themes and a curated application selection aimed at low-resource machines. Its stated mission leans explicitly toward sustainability: reducing e-waste by making genuinely old PCs (including many pre-installed with Windows XP or Vista-era hardware) usable again rather than discarded. It ships more visual polish and default theming than some other lightweight distros in this category, aiming to make an old machine feel deliberately designed rather than merely stripped down.

MirrorNest n'héberge pas les images ISO des distributions — le support d'installation doit toujours provenir directement de la page de téléchargement officielle du projet (lien ci-dessus), afin d'obtenir la somme de contrôle/signature correcte pour vérification.
