A proposal has been made for the upcoming Fedora 41, the Anaconda installer, to become a native Wayland app, dropping X11 dependencies.

Here is my new GNU/Linux distribution guide about Debian KDE 12, the right GNU/Linux distribution for professional digital painting in 2024! Also about three major problems with GNU/Linux distros that will drive away all professional artists, IMO, and how I got kicked out of the Fedora KDE ecosystem with F40, which imposed Plasma6 and Wayland. I hope it helps other artists here!

It's alive! Though I had given up yesterday, after a few tries today I got NetBSD 10 running. Though booting is still a bit flaky and I am investigating freezes, I may resurrect this one after all. I could replace the Sony VAIO keyboard, but I just like this one's keys much better than the Sony's island keyboard.

A close-up photo of a silver 2008 LG laptop on top of a desk. There is a powered-off monitor in the background, and a red small box with a yellow screwdriver on top of it to the right side of the laptop. A black SanDisk flash drive is on top of the laptop palm rest. One blue and two amber LEDs are lit. The screen shows the NetBSD default window manager, CTWM, with an orange solid color background, a context menu, a window list and a terminal open. The terminal has the tmux multiplexer running two panes split horizontally. The top pane is following the system log, with one acpibat0 workqueue busy message and syslogd messages stating the previous message was repeated several times. The bottom pane is looping every second to print the current date, time, system uptime, user count and load. The date is May 16 2024, 18:00. The system is up for 2 hours and 5 minutes, with 5 users and 0.17 load average.

Fix for compositor alpha-blending with #EGL on X11 got into the 24.1-rc4! If you are forced to stay with #X11, this is pretty good news for you!

Plus aucun des outils de capture d'écran que j'ai ne prend le curseur de la souris....

Pas pratique pour documenter une fonction de drag & drop... Je crois que je vais ajouter la curseur avec GIMP 🤣
