The YouTube channel "I use Devuan btw" has been testing XLibre with the #Nvidia RTX 4060 using CUDA driver 590.48.01. He says, "It works great. OS is #devuan 6 excalibur with #openbox window manger. If your gpu supports version 570+ it'll work." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbhtNWhtp1A

At #FOSDEM 2026 there was a talk about "Separating the Wayland Compositor and Window Manager."

The developers of @sonicdesktop forked the #X11-related core components of #KDE and are already improving them. There are #SonicDE packages in #ArtixLinux, in the AUR https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/sonicde-meta, and co-hosted at https://x11libre.net/repo/arch_based/x86_64/. #XLibre #XingsDay
