NEW • Development Release: Fedora 41 Beta |
Rate this project
|
The Fedora team have announced the release of a new development snapshot, Fedora 41 Beta. This development release removes Python 2, re-introduces the NVIDIA binary driver through the software centre, and upgrades the DNF package manager. "Although it can’t be part of Fedora Linux, we know that the NVIDIA binary driver is pragmatically essential for many people. Previously, NVIDIA driver installation had been removed from GNOME Software because it didn’t support Secure Boot, which is increasingly-often enabled by default on laptops. This change brings the option back for Fedora Workstation users with Secure Boot supported. This is good news for folks who want to use Fedora Linux for gaming and CUDA. The change also helps Fedora stay relevant for AI/LLVM workloads. In Fedora Linux 41, the DNF package management command will be updated to version 5. (DNF5 and bootc will be available on image-based Fedora variants such as Atomic desktops and Fedora IoT.) The new packages will make it simpler to build and update bootable container images based on these variants." Additional details can be found in the Fedora Magazine release announcement.

The FreeBSD team have announced the release of FreeBSD 13.4, a maintenance release for the 13.x series which features mostly security improvements and bug fixes. "The FreeBSD Release Engineering Team is pleased to announce the availability of FreeBSD 13.4-RELEASE. This is the fifth release of the stable/13 branch. Since this release is occurring late in a legacy stable branch, there are few new features; rather, the focus is primarily on maintenance. As such, changes since 13.3-RELEASE consist mostly of bug fixes, driver updates, and new versions of externally-maintained software. For a complete list of new features and known problems, please see the online release notes and errata list.... FreeBSD 13.4-RELEASE is now available for the amd64, i386, powerpc, powerpc64, powerpc64le, powerpcspe, armv6, armv7, aarch64, and riscv64 architectures.

SDesk is an Arch-based Linux distribution which strives for an easy to use, modern approach to desktop computing. The SDesk project ships up to date software and uses GNOME running on a Wayland session for its default desktop environment. The project's latest snapshot adds new drivers, especialy for touch interfaces, and shifts user creation from Calamares to the GNOME first-run wizard. "SDesk includes a massive amount of new drivers for touchscreens, fingerprint readers, and more. It now supports fractional scaling, too. The latest version of the Swirl browser is now shipped with a gorgeous new UI and a bunch of new features, and Plymouth, the Calamares installer, and both Octopi and the GNOME Shell extensions we ship by default have all been updated to their latest versions. It's also worth noting that Calamares no longer handles user creation, locales, or keyboard layout configuration, and all of this is now done by the GNOME Initial Setup application." Additional information is presented in the project's release announcement. Download: sdesk-2024.09.16-x86_64.iso (2,752MB, SHA256, signature, pkglist). |

NEW • Development Release: Haiku R1 Beta 5 |
Rate this project
|
Haiku is an open-source operating system, currently in beta development, that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the Be Operating System (BeOS), Haiku aims to become a fast, efficient, and simple to use. The project latest release, R1 Beta 5, introduces a number of performance improvements, particularly with networking, simplifies adjusting the theme, and ports several open source applications to Haiku. "Simplified color selection and 'Dark mode': Instead of displaying all 30-odd color options in the Appearance preferences and making users edit all of them, by default only three are shown, and the rest are automatically computed whenever one of these three are changed. (The full set of colours can still be edited manually, for any users that want to do that.) This new automatic color selection mode is fully 'dark mode'-aware; it will switch to using light text colours when users select dark panel background colours, and vice versa. In addition, there were many fixes throughout the system and in built-in applications to handle user-selected colours and 'dark mode' more correctly (especially as regards control gradients, as you can see here; though some of these are already not an issue if one uses the 'Flat' decorator and control look from the 'Haiku Extras' package)." Additional information is provided in the Haiku release notes. Download (SHA256): haiku-r1beta5-x86_64-anyboot.iso (1,408MB, torrent, pkglist). |

Kali Linux is a Debian-based distribution with a collection of security and forensics tools. Version 2024.3 of the distribution offers support for Qualcomm Snapdragon SDM845 SoC and includes eleven new tools. This distribution also begins the work on migrating to a new, significant Python update. "The summary of the changelog since the 2024.2 release from June is: Qualcomm NetHunter Pro Devices - Qualcomm Snapdragon SDM845 SoC now supported; new Tools - 11x new tools in your arsenal. Our focus has been on a lot of behind the scenes updates and optimizations since the last release. There have been some messy migrations, with multiple stacks, all interrelating. After the t64 transition finished up, it was straight into multiple other transitions - GCC 14, glibc 2.40 and Python 3.12. This last one is the most significant. This new Python release removed some long-deprecated APIs, breaking a fair number of packages. We have been busy fixing it all, we are almost there, Python 3.12 will be the default in the next version of Kali, 2024.4." Additional information is provided in the release announcement.
