EndeavorOS launches its April 2021 ISO already with Linux 5.11 and other news

Endeavors launch April 2021

The development of the distribution formerly known as Antergos, although at some point we will have to stop mentioning this, was on hold for a while. At least in terms of new ISO images, and the first from 2021 was launched already in March. A few hours ago announced the April 2021 release, a EndeavorOS 2021.04.17 that has arrived full of news, something logical if we consider that the distribution is based on Arch Linux.

Among the novelties that have arrived we have Linux 5.11. It was surprising they didn't include it last month, as that kernel version arrived in mid-February and EndeavorOS is Rolling Release. But all the news that did not arrive thirty days ago have arrived this time, and it should also be noted that the Sway and BSPWM window managers can be used. Here are the most outstanding news that have arrived with EndeavorOS 2021.04.17.

Highlights of EndeavorOS 2021.04.17

  • 5.11.14-arch-1-1.
  • Squid 3.2.39.3.
  • Possibility of installing the Sway and BSPWM window managers, and they can be used alone or on top of the graphical environment.
  • Table 21.0.2.
  • NVIDIA 465.24.2.
  • Improved support for NVIDIA GPUs.
  • Fixed automatic login feature and should now work fine after installation.
  • USB support can now be enabled when using the system in VirtualBox.
  • Improvements in the user's interface.
  • The Welcome app has been improved to make things easier for new Arch Linux users.
  • Pacdiff tool, one with a user interface for managing system changes and package configuration files.
  • New software news button showing tutorials and solutions to common problems.

EndeavorOS is a distribution that uses the Rolling Release development model, so existing users will have already received all the updates that are included in the April 2021 ISO. For zero installations, the picture is available en this link.
