#ultramarinelinux — Public Fediverse posts

Going ahead and putting Ultramarine Linux on my Surface Pro 4 after Fedora 44 stopped booting, hope it helps. I like that they have a specifically Surface image, maybe it'll last longer.

⚓🛸 Ultramarine Linux 44 a fost lansat oficial! Propulsat de baza solidă Fedora 44 și medii grafice actualizate 🚀🌊

Pentru utilizatorii care apreciază stabilitatea și pachetele moderne oferite de Fedora, dar își doresc o experiență de utilizare mai prietenoasă, „out-of-the-box” și optimizată pentru desktop, comunitatea vine cu o veste excelentă: s-a lansat oficial Ultramarine Linux 44.

Această distribuție își propune să elimine micile bătăi de cap logistice de după instalarea unei imagini standard (cum ar fi configurarea manuală a codec-urilor media sau adăugarea depozitelor terțe), oferind un sistem finisat perfect, gata de productivitate sau gaming din primul minut.

Iată principalele caracteristici și noutăți introduse în Ultramarine Linux 44:

🔹 Sincronizat cu baza Fedora 44:
Sistemul moștenește toate avantajele tehnologice ale recentei versiuni Fedora 44. Aceasta înseamnă că utilizatorii beneficiază de o stabilitate de fier, de cel mai nou kernel Linux stabil (care asigură compatibilitate maximă cu plăcile grafice și procesoarele de ultimă generație) și de un management modern al pachetelor de sistem.

🔹 Medii de lucru (Desktop Environments) cizelate:
Ultramarine se remarcă prin modul în care își personalizează edițiile. Versiunea 44 aduce actualizări majore pentru toate aromele sale oficiale:

Ediția Flagship (Budgie): Vine cu cea mai recentă iterație a desktop-ului Budgie, oferind o interfață elegantă, rapidă și extrem de familiară pentru cei care fac tranziția de la alte sisteme de operare.

Ediția GNOME & KDE Plasma: Incorporează versiunile proaspete ale acestor medii, configurate cu teme native discrete și extensii care îmbunătățesc fluxul de lucru zilnic.

Ediția Pantheon: Ultramarine continuă să fie una dintre puținele distribuții care oferă o expriență curată și stabilă a mediului grafic Pantheon (preluat de la Elementary OS) direct pe o bază RPM/Fedora.

🔹 Tot ce ai nevoie, preinstalat (Out-of-the-box experience):
Spre deosebire de Fedora brută, Ultramarine vem din fabrică cu:

Depozitul RPM Fusion activat în mod implicit (facilitând instalarea instantanee a driverelor proprietare Nvidia sau a componentelor Steam).

Toate codec-urile audio/video necesare pentru redarea conținutului multimedia fără erori de format.

Integrare nativă îmbunătățită pentru pachetele de tip Flatpak, oferind acces direct la întregul catalog Flathub.

🔹 Performanță optimizată sub capotă:
Inginerii din spatele proiectului au integrat reglaje fine la nivelul managerului de memorie și al planificatorului de sarcini (scheduler), asigurând o latență scăzută în aplicații și o rulare mai fluidă a jocurilor video. De asemenea, procesul de instalare prin Anaconda a fost simplificat pentru a ghida utilizatorii noi mult mai eficient.

Ultramarine Linux 44 reprezintă opțiunea ideală pentru cei care vor să se bucure de puterea și inovația din ecosistemul Fedora, dar într-un format mult mai primitor, stabil și gata de atac. Imaginile ISO corespunzătoare fiecărui mediu grafic sunt disponibile acum pentru descărcare pe site-ul oficial al proiectului.

OpenSUSE slowroll was fun, but the lack of support for specific programs I need eventually did it in.

KDE Plasma going Wayland only:
https://blogs.kde.org/2025/11/26/going-all-in-on-a-wayland-future
("Wayland is the future" whether we like it or not. I've been testing Wayland on GNOME 48 in the past few days, it seems mostly ok so far, the only issue is that sometimes some right click context menus are flickering (although this isn't as common either as it used to be 1-2 years earlier), and the workspace switching animation is a bit delayed on my external screen compared to the laptop screen, but at the same time, floating panels in Kdenlive are better handled on Wayland than on X11 (especially when using the Forge extension for auto tiling), and some programs open a bit faster (which used to be in the other way earlier).)

we pushed a change to our (Ultramarine) DNF config this morning that may break DNF5 and updating graphically

if you're having issues, upgrade your system with sudo dnf4 upgrade --refresh, make you're on version 42-15.um42 of ultramarine-release afterwards, it'll show during the upgrade, if you missed it run rpm -qa ultramarine-release to check

IF YOU DIDN'T UPDATE IN THE LAST 24HRS UPDATE NORMALLY!!!

we're sorry for the inconvenience and are working on tools to prevent incidents like this in the future

#tech #linux #dnf #fedora #fyralabs #ultramarinelinux #bug #foss

I think a lot of people in #fedora overlooked how long ago we (#ultramarinelinux and #terrapkg) first adopted #dnf5.
Fyra has adopted dnf5 since the end of 2023, and we have discovered and resolved quite a variety of issues with it, big and small.

What a journey.

new merch shop launches today! we're also launching 5 more stickers and magnets for everything!

The latest kernels (starting from at least 6.16.4) could make your system unbootable. If you have updated, select the kernel right above the rescue kernel to boot up your system instead. In any case, it is recommended to pin the version of the kernel for now. For me the last known good version is 6.16.3.

If your computer immediately shuts itself down, it's most likely this issue.

Also, this happens with any kernels, even CachyOS.

TL;DR

sudo dnf versionlock add kernel-core

If your computer does not boot with any of the kernels, you'll need to boot into a usb drive with any linux distros (e.g. our installation media), mount and chroot into the faulty system, then run sudo dnf downgrade 'kernel-*'. If you do NOT have any kernel versions lower or equal to 6.16.3, you should also downgrade your kernels. If you have found any faulty kernel versions lower than 6.16.4, please report to us. Expect a blog post in the coming hours with more information.

If you need any support, please reply to this post or feel free to reach out to us with the provided links here - https://wiki.ultramarine-linux.org/en/community/community/

While I really like GNOME and its focused approach and environment, I can't help but enjoy KDE as much if not more with its customization options.

Figured I'd change my desktop layout for a change and came with GNOMEsque / macOS / Win11 inspired one in about 5/10 minutes. The top bar only appears if the mouse hovers over it, making the desktop in general very minimalistic.

The only problem comes with maximized windows, sometimes the top bar comes up if I want to close a window, for instance. Still trying to find a solution for that.

What are your favorite desktop environments and why?

#Computers #operating_systems #Linux #KDE #Fedora #UltramarineLinux

The switcheroo went well. The #macbook is running well and fully functional (webcam and wifi) on #OpenSUSE #Slowroll.

The #Ebox is running fantastically well on #UltramarineLinux.

So overall, it has been a pretty good night. Oh, and I switched the kiddo's lappy over to #Cinnamon. He likes a more Windows 10 setup.

On other #PC news: The macbook has been updated from #UltraMarineLinux 41 to 42 with minimal effort.

Hopefully I wont run into #kernelpanic issues like last time. I think part of the problem was installing the kernel mod that installed the drivers for the webcam.

We got some new art of Mizuki, chilling at home.

Ultramarine users, this will be rolling to your devices as a wallpaper sometime tonight, so keep an eye out for that system update!

As always, fan art is heavily encouraged! Make sure to tag #mizuki and #ultramarinelinux

Make sure to check out our artist on her socials and consider commissioning her! https://www.instagram.com/seabunny_013?ref=fedi.fyralabs.com
