manjaro 20.1.1

Three weeks after mikah launch, your first maintenance update is here. Is about manjaro 20.1.1 And, like any point update, it has come, above all, to update its software packages to their latest versions. Among this software we have the default browser, which is now the Firefox 81 which was released last Tuesday, September 22. Considering that Firefox 81.0.1 has already been released, it will be one of the first packages to be updated from the same operating system in the next few days.

As with every new release, the developer team has taken the opportunity to update the kernel. But this distribution is not the same as others, and it puts several of them in our distribution. The most up-to-date is Linux 5.9-rc6, but it also offers Linux 5.8.11 as the latest stable version or Linux 5.4.67 as the LTS version of the Linux kernel. Below you have the rest of news which they have mentioned us.

Highlights of Manjaro 20.1.1

  • They have updated some of their KDE-git packages and most of their kernels, including Linux 5.8.11.
  • Pamac 9.5.10.
  • Game Mode 1.6.
  • Qt5 5.15.1, which may present some issues.
  • KDE Frameworks 5.74.
  • AMDVLK 2020.Q3.5.
  • Some browsers have been updated.
  • Prawns 3.15.2.
  • Mhwd came up with a solution for Intel-Nvidia Prime cards.
  • Systemd 246.6.
  • Firefox 81.0.
  • Table 20.1.8, which introduces some corrections.
  • Some more updates to the Deepin package.
  • Caliber 5.0.
  • Some new versions of Pop-Shell and Material-Shell.
  • Small file system update.
  • Wireshark got a new point release.
  • WINE 5.18.
  • Common Python and Haskell package updates and rebuilds.

Speaking of an operating system whose development model is Rolling Release, we recall that Manjaro 20.1.1 is available in the form of new images with XFCE, KDE and GNOME environments from your official website, but these are only for zero installations. Existing users can install all new packages from the same operating system with the usual command (sudo pacman -Syu). And I am leaving this article now, since lately I am tempted to switch to Manjaro and reading about it makes me a little more nervous.

    I have updated to this version and it goes great with XFCE. Manjaro is a joy to use:

    - It is more stable than I thought, despite being "Semi Rolling Release" (with huge and constant changes) the updates have not broken anything at the moment

    - Good hardware recognition, in some previous version I had problems with the WIFI since it required the installation of a driver but now it is not necessary

    - Low resource consumption (RAM and CPU) for what it offers. The hard disk does occupy a lot compared to other distros but nothing exaggerated

    - I don't miss Linux software and the versions are modern (no need for PPAs), I have the Official Repositories + AUR + Snap + Flatpak integrated into pamac (pacman GUI)

    - With the utility that it integrates, changing the kernel (Kernel) or adding new ones is easy and safe

    - Very neat and friendly design
