RebeccaBlackOS 2024-08-12 live Linux drops support for 32-bit processors and replaces Qt5 with Qt6
Browse:811
Available since 2012, RebeccaBlackOS is a live Debian-based Linux distro that has been and remains one of the few such operating systems capable of running a Wayland session in a live environment. Previously available for the 32-bit and 64-bit flavors of the x86 architecture, RebeccaBlackOS is now only available in a 64-bit version due to the update from Qt 5 to Qt 6. Launched yesterday, its latest version is RebeccaBlackOS 2024-08-12.
Alongside the replacement of Qt 5 and the subsequent loss of support for 32-bit processors, RebeccaBlackOS 2024-08-12 comes with Debian Bookworm tier 1 packages, the ttynull driver enabled by default alongside drm_panick, all on top of a Linux 6.10 kernel. The list of Wayland desktops supported by RebeccaBlackOS 2024-08-12 includes Weston's example environment, as well as KDE Plasma, Gnome-shell, Wayfire/MMate, Sway, LXQt, and Xfce.The windowing system and display manager Wayland has been around since late September 2008. Licensed under the terms of the MIT License, Wayland (alongside its display server Weston) received the latest update two months ago. In addition to officially supporting Linux, this ambitious project that aims to replace the X Window System with a secure and more straightforward windowing system is unoficially available on NetBSD, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, DragonFly BSD, and Haiku.
Most Linux users looking for a reliable resource can grab the 10th edition of Christopher Negus' Linux Bibleon Amazon, which is currently priced at $38 in Kindle format or $25.11 to $33.49 in paperback form, depending on the pricing policy of each seller.
