Turkix was a live Linux distribution that included a graphical installation assistant, aimed at providing an accessible Linux experience. It was derived from the Mandriva distribution and adopted a visual theme reminiscent of Windows XP.

Initial versions (1.0 and 1.9) offered support exclusively for Turkish and Azerbaijani, with subsequent releases broadening language options to incorporate English as well.

The most recent stable release, version 3.0, became available on January 7, 2005. This was succeeded by an unstable 10.0 Alpha edition in March 2005, after which the project ceased development.
