  Hi masterpier, Good news — we've just built a package that solves exactly this. soplos-vmware-modules is a .deb we're working on that automates the whole process: it compiles vmmon and vmnet against all your installed Soplos kernels, configures the vmware.service systemd unit, sets up module autoloading at boot, and includes a kernel hook so every time a new kernel is installed the modules are rebuilt automatically — no manual steps needed. If you want to test it before it hits the repos, you can grab the .deb directly and install it with: sudo apt install ./soplos-vmware-modules_1.0.0_amd64.deb You'll need VMware Workstation already installed (the .bundle from Broadcom), and kernel headers for your kernel (linux-headers-$(uname -r)). The rest is handled automatically. Let us know if it works for you — your feedback would be very helpful before we push it to the repository. https://www.transfernow.net/dl/202610069v7JueT7

  Hi Steven, Thanks for taking the time to test several ISOs and for the screenshots! They've been very helpful. The current version is 2026.10 (October), and we recommend downloading it from our CDNs. On the official website you can also find SourceForge and Torrent options. Regarding what you mention about SourceForge: each ISO lives on its own page, not in a single bucket, which is why the "Download" button may give you a different ISO than the one you're after. The safest way is to open the page of the edition you want, go to Files and pick the ISO manually, or simply use the CDNs. About the error: apt-get returning code 100 while installing soplos-welcome points to a connection failure during the installation. We also can't rule out a BIOS clock desync, which can cause this same error. Please try the following: Check that the BIOS date and time are correct, and fix them if they aren't. Make sure you have a stable internet connection throughout the whole installation. If possible, use a wired connection instead of Wi-Fi. Install again with the 2026.10 ISO downloaded from the CDNs and let us know how it goes. Thanks and best regards, The Soplos Linux Team

  Hi Larry, Thank you so much, this really means a lot! Getting featured on Distro of the Week is a huge honor, and reading such an honest, professional review makes all the work that goes into Soplos feel worth it. Really grateful for the write-up and for taking the time to give Tyron a proper test-drive. Thanks again!
