NEW • Distribution Releases: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10.1, 9.7 |
Rate this project
(7.5)

Red Hat, Inc. has released two updated versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) - 10.1, the first point release of the distribution's latest stable release, and 9.7, an updated build of RHEL's legacy 9.x branch. "During the excitement of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 (RHEL) launch at Red Hat Summit, I kept hearing one question from customers and partners: When would an offline version of the RHEL command-line assistant be available? Today I can announce that it's on the way. As part of the RHEL 10.1 update, an offline, locally available command-line assistant is officially in developer preview. For customers with a Red Hat Satellite subscription, it offers AI-powered RHEL guidance based on decades of enterprise Linux experience. Companies and agencies in finance, government, defense, industrial control, and other heightened-security industries will find it particularly useful. A key advantage of this design is its ability to function in completely disconnected, offline, or air-gapped environments, eliminating the need for external network connectivity." See the What's new in RHEL 10.1 and Introducing Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.7 blog posts for more details, with release notes for both RHEL 10.1 and RHEL 9.7 now also available. Both RHEL 10.1 (pkglist) and RHEL 9.7 (pkglist) can be downloaded from Red Hat's Customer and Developer portals. |

NEW • Distribution Release: Nitrux 5.0.0 |

Uri Herrera has announced the release of Nitrux 5.0.0, a major update of the Linux distribution that aims to be "disruptive by design". This is the project's first build featuring an immutable base and the Hyprland Wayland compositor (dropping KDE Plasma in the process). Although Nitrux is built on Debian, it does not ship the traditional Debian package management utilities, relying instead on AppImage, Flatpak, Distrobox and similar utilities to install new software. "We are pleased to announce the launch of Nitrux 5.0.0. This new version combines the latest software updates, bug fixes, performance improvements, and ready-to-use hardware support. Given the massive changes in this release, we recommend a fresh installation using the latest media. There's no planned update path from Nitrux 3.9.1 to 5.0.0; nonetheless, update archives for 5.0.0 and onwards will be available through the Nitrux Update tool. As announced back in June, Nitrux no longer uses the KDE Plasma desktop; beginning with this release, we transition fully to Hyprland. The transition took more than a few weeks, it wasn't just a matter of installation." Read the detailed release announcement for information. Nitrux 5.0.0 comes in two variants, for NVIDIA hardware (cachy-nvopen) and AMD/Intel hardware (liquorix-mesa); download links (pkglist): nitrux-contemporary-cachy-nvopen-997f8883-amd64.iso (3,195MB, SHA512, signature), nitrux-contemporary-liquorix-mesa-f4ee9a13-amd64.iso (2,353MB, SHA512, signature). |

The Volumio team has announced the release of Volumio 4.067, a major update of the project's single-purpose Debian-based Linux distribution designed and fine-tuned exclusively for music playback. This release updates the underlying system to Debian 12: "Today marks something special for us and for everyone who loves what Volumio does. After nearly a year of work, we're releasing Volumio 4 for Raspberry Pi and PC platforms. You might fire it up and think, 'Wait, it looks the same.' And you'd be right. We didn't redesign the interface or move buttons around. What we did was rebuild the foundation. Why this matters? Think of Volumio 4 like replacing the engine in your favorite car. From the driver's seat, everything feels familiar. But under the hood, we've swapped in something more powerful, more efficient, and ready to take you places the old engine simply couldn't go. We've moved to Debian 'Bookworm', which is the technical way of saying we've given Volumio a completely modern foundation. Here's where things get exciting. Volumio 4 works hand in hand with our new Volumio app, which just landed on the app stores. This is the first step in our vision - one seamless ecosystem for music playback, everywhere, for every kind of digital music."

The MX Linux team has announced that version 25 of its distribution is now available. MX Linux 25 is based on Debian 13. The release announcement shares the key new features: "MX Linux 25 is now available for use. MX 25 is built from Debian 13 'Trixie' and MX repositories. All releases come with systemd. The Xfce, Xfce AHS and Fluxbox releases are also available in SysVInt variants. SysvVInit ISO images are clearly labeled such in the filen ame. Reasons for this change from past editions are in this blog post. Major desktop versions: Xfce 4.20, Fluxbox 1.3.7, KDE Plasma 6.3.6. Most ISO images come with the latest 6.12.48 kernel from the Debian 'Stable' repositories. The Xfce AHS variants have the 6.16 Liquorix kernels. The antiX live system has been modified to work better with systemd as the init system. To those that want to run live systems as a primary system, the SysVInit editions support better the antiX live system. The Qt-based GUI MX Tools have been migrated to Qt 6. Most apps have also received bug fixes and translation updates. Our long-time updater tool, apt-notifier, has been replaced with a new tool, mx-updater."

The PorteuX development team has release PorteuX 2.4, the latest version of the project's set of lightweight and stripped-down Linux distribution featuring a number of popular desktop environments. This release presents a new desktop option, the COSMIC desktop developed by System 76: "This release brings the COSMIC desktop environment for 'current'. Bear in mind it's still in beta, so expect many issues, including cosmic-osd running at full CPU load (already reported). This is the last PorteuX release that will include a version based on Slackware stable. After much consideration, we decided that this version is just too old and brings no advantage over the current version, which is extensively tested before each PorteuX release. Changes: fixed date/time during boot time; fixed cheatcode from using UUID not having a trailing slash; fixed Cinnamon rendering in Wayland; fixed cropped title bar in Xfce; fixed small title bar icons in Openbox...."

The Murena team have announced a new version of its /e/OS operating system for mobile devices. The new 3.2 version features notifications when apps are leaking data and customization options for the side button on the Fairphone 6. There are also improvements to the project's software centre: "In Advanced Privacy, users are now informed in real time when apps attempt to leak data, with simple controls to manage notifications. The App Lounge has also been refined: app sizes from F-Droid are now displayed, and common apps are shown based on region for a better browsing experience. For Fairphone (Gen.6) users, /e/OS 3.2 introduces customization of the side button, allowing you to assign your preferred actions. While the dedicated Moments feature from Android is not yet available, this new customization gives you more flexibility in how you use the button. A major improvement has been implemented to the Fairphone (Gen.6). Fairphone Camera app is now available on /e/OS, enjoy an even better camera experience on your phone."

The iodéOS team have announced the availability of iodéOS 6.9. The new version focuses on security and user accounts, enabling automatic reboot after a period of inactivity, full signing out of user accounts, and better protection of device settings. "Full logout for secondary users - secondary users can now be fully logged out of the device, rather than just switching accounts. This ensures a cleaner separation of user environments and better privacy for everyone sharing the device. Also included in iodéOS 4 and later versions. Private Space and Work Profiles for secondary users - secondary users can now use Private Space and Work Profiles, allowing them to leverage apps like Shelter for better data isolation. This is ideal for families or teams who need to keep personal and work data separate, even on shared devices. Work Profiles also included in iodéOS 5. App links (deep links) let apps open specific URLs directly instead of defaulting to the browser. With iodéOS 6.9, apps can now automatically validate these links if configured, eliminating the need for manual approval and making the experience smoother and more efficient." The project's release announcement has further details. Download and install options are available through the project's Installation page. |

NEW • Development Release: antiX 25 Beta 1 |

The developers of antiX, a lightweight, systemd-free desktop Linux distribution featuring the IceWM window manager, have announced the availability of the initial beta build of a major new version, 25, based on Debian 13. This release adds s6-rc and s6-66 as alternatives to runit and Dinit init systems: "Here is the first beta ISO image of antiX 25 (64- bit). Bullet point notes for now: based on Debian 13 'Trixie'; four modern systemd-free init systems – runit (default), s6-rc, s6-66 and Dinit; new default look; the usual ‘antiX magic’; you *should* be able to boot live in the non-default init and it *should* then become the default after install. Please note that user intervention will be required more than in previous versions of antiX, especially if not using the default runit option. This means that users will need to add any needed service files for the init they are using, e.g. network-manager will also need runit-service-network-manager (and the equivalents for dinit, s6-rc and s6-66, if available). Test it out and post feedback in the thread at the forums. This release is unique in that it would not have existed without the cooperation of many other distro developers." Here is the brief release announcement. Download: antiX-25-beta1_x64-full.iso (2,126MB, MD5). |

Devuan GNU+Linux 6.0.0, code name "Excalibur", has been released. This latest version of the project's systemd-free Linux distribution forked from Debian in 2015 is based on Debian 13: "It is with great pleasure that the Devuan developers hereby announce the release of Devuan Excalibur 6.0 as the project's newest stable release. This is the result of lots of painstaking work by the team and extensive testing by the wider Devuan community. New in this release: a [merged-/usr]filesystem is obligatory, if you are upgrading from 'Daedalus' ensure you have complied with this requirement before upgrading; PipeWire audio - in general (with the notable exception of users requiring a screen reader for graphical login), the PipeWire media server is a superior solution to PulseAudio, in particular it has fewer latency issues; non-free firmware - all Devuan 6 installation media make non-free firmware packages available at install time, in the majority of the cases, these packages are needed (and will be installed) only if your hardware (usually WiFi adapter) requires them."
