Today we are going to tell you about Regata OS, a Linux distribution from Brazil with a focus on gaming needs, which features ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors as the default office suite. Keep reading to learn more.
About Regata OS
Developed since 2013, Regata OS is a Brazilian operating system based on openSUSE. It’s an ideal choice for users who want to have access to their game library or create content without having to use Microsoft Windows.
In a nutshell, Regata OS is a “hybrid” between openSUSE Leap and openSUSE Tumbleweed. This allows users to have access to new open-source technologies, which provide better support for new hardware, while they can enjoy high performance on their PC or laptop.
Regata OS has its own application store so getting new apps on this OS is simple and straightforward. For hybrid graphics notebooks, Regata OS runs some applications with the dedicated GPU by default to provide optimum performance.
What makes this operating system unique is Regata OS Game Access. Using this tool, you can not only access and run games available in your Steam library but also launch your games available in other digital game distribution services, such as the EA App, Battle.net, Ubisoft Connect and Epic Games Store. The core idea of the Regata OS project is to integrate various game launchers within a single system to offer a better gaming experience for Linux users.
ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors, the default office suite on Regata OS
The latest version, Regata OS 24 Arctic Fox, comes with ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors as the default office suite, so you can start using it immediately by clicking the corresponding icon in the menu.
Using ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors, Regata OS users can:
- Open and edit text documents, spreadsheets and presentations;
- Create and fill out PDF forms;
- Annotate PDF files and protect them with passwords;
- Use a ChatGPT-based AI assistant to generate text and automate routine tasks;
- Connect to ONLYOFFICE DocSpace, Nextcloud, Seafile, ownCloud, Liferay, kDrive and Moodle for real-time collaboration;
- Sign office files with digital signatures and more.
Josué Vicente, the creator of Regata OS, says:
ONLYOFFICE is fantastic because, in addition to offering a full-featured suite of office applications, it also has great compatibility with Microsoft Office files and presents a unified solution, which has a modern and familiar look for users looking for an alternative so they can do more.
There are so many advantages offered by ONLYOFFICE, that we decided to add it by default in Regata OS. Thus, Regata OS users will have a powerful office suite just a few clicks away whenever they need it.
