I ❤️ xfce, dying for Wayland. Wish I knew how to ninja together xfce Wayland. As most apps are now compatible.

please no, XFCE is my last refuge for machines too old to support Wayland

you understand that you can still use x11 with KDE or gnome right?

They're not killing X11 support, don't worry. They're just expanding to Wayland support.

I am running Wayland on my 2013 MacBook Air. Joe old is your hardware?

A lot of Wayland compositors have a GLES 2.0 renderer which should be supported by ancient GPUs. If you try Vulkan based compositors you might be out of luck.

If I am not mistaken the GTS 450 should be more than powerful enough especially by Linux standards.

I hope there are a few dank wallpapers for the meme

IIRC, they expect to have it released in the first half of December if there are no issues or delays.

[-] bunitor@lemmy.eco.br 1 points 1 month ago

did they release a changelog?

[-] GolfNovemberUniform@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 month ago

Wait but it hasn't been 2 years yet!

Wanted to join the wallpaper contest but it has to be only and only through a Gitlab account, and the requeriments are rather limiting - and, specially, not a fan of contests that are decided by thumbs-up (or heart emojis, like in this case)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
