Rate this project
|
Parted Magic is a small live CD/USB/PXE with its elemental purpose being to partition hard drives. The project's latest release is version 2024_11_03 which updates the Linux kernel, introduces WINE 9.x and provides upgrades for LibreOffice and ClamAV. "This version of Parted Magic updates the kernel to Linux 6.11 and adds/updates various programs. WINE has been updated to version 9 with support for 32-bit and 64-bit programs. I didn't do any extensive testing, but I found an old AutoCAD 14 CD from the 90s and it did install and run. I also tested a few 64-bit Windows binaries and those also ran. Winetricks was added to help install programs and missing DLL files. I didn't realize how long it's been since LibreOffice was updated, so that got some attention. The clamtk program was saying the definitions were out of date, even though they were not. This was corrected with a ClamAV update. A forum user suggested Hddsuperclone to be added. Updated programs: BIND 9.18.30, Boost 1.78.0, Cabextract 1.11, ClamAV 1.4.1, cups-cURL 8.10.1, LibreOffice 24.8.2, Mozilla Firefox 115.16.1esr, NVIDIA driver 560.35.03, OpenSSH 9.9p1, OpenSSL 1.1.1zb, Perl5.34.0 Wine 9.0, ZFS on Linux 2.2.6" Additional information is provided on the project's news page, while download and purchase options are offered through the distribution's online store. |

Br OS is a Brazilian Linux distribution based on Ubuntu and featuring the KDE Plasma desktop. The project's latest release, Br OS 24.10, ships with the Plasma 6 desktop environment and enabled Wayland by default. "This is a regular version that aims to introduce new technologies to the system and the latest news is the introduction of KDE 6 which was responsible for this version coming with some features and design elements missing, since such features are still under development or have not yet been ported to Qt 6. With KDE Plasma 6 comes Qt 6, which opens up a huge range of possibilities for new features that will come gradually in the new versions of the system, now Br OS comes with Wayland by default, which is fully functional in KDE 6 a great news for KDE haters who complained about its instability (which made Br OS adopt Latte Dock to get around the problem), is that KDE 6 is incredibly stable, surpassing GNOME and other very solid environments, unfortunately the look of KDE 6 is very strange if you try to start the section via X.Org, however this should be fixed in future versions of KDE. This version comes with KDE Plasma 6.1.5, KDE Framework 6.6.0, Qt 6.6.2, Linux kernel 6.11, Wayland standard graphic server (X.Org as an alternative)."

The Raspberry Pi organization has launched a new version of the project's Linux distribution, Raspberry Pi OS. The new version introduces a number of changes, with the most visible being the shift to using a Wayland desktop session by default. "After much optimisation for our hardware, we have reached the point where labwc desktops run just as fast as X on older Raspberry Pi models. Today, we make the switch with our latest desktop image: Raspberry Pi Desktop now runs Wayland by default across all models. When you update an existing installation of Bookworm, you will see a prompt asking to switch to labwc the next time you reboot. We recommend that most people switch to labwc. Existing Pi 4 or 5 Bookworm installations running Wayfire shouldn't change in any noticeable way, besides the loss of a couple of animations which we haven't yet implemented in labwc. Because we will no longer support Wayfire with updates on Raspberry Pi OS, it's best to adopt labwc as soon as possible. Older Pis that currently use X should also switch to labwc." The release announcement offers additional details. Download (pkglist): 2024-10-22-raspios-bookworm-arm64.img.xz (1,181MB, SHA256, signature, torrent), 2024-10-22-raspios-bookworm-arm64-full.img.xz (2,981MB, SHA256, signature, torrent), 2024-10-22-raspios-bookworm-arm64-lite.img.xz (438MB, SHA256, signature, torrent). |

This application runs on ParrotOS, but is also compatible with other distributions, and can also run on Windows and MacOS. It only requires the installation of docker.io to interface with Docker and allow the user to manage containers. Instead of typing and downloading a specific tool, through Rocket you can select a tool from the list, and then downloading the Docker image and launching the container is taken care of by the application."
