NomadBSD 1.4 发布

We are pleased to present the release of NomadBSD 1.4.

Changes since 1.3.2

• The base system has been upgraded to FreeBSD 12.2-p4.
• The installer has been improved.
  • Problems with booting the installed system via UEFI has been fixed.
  • The suitable graphics card driver will now be installed and setup, instead of using the auto-detection on the installed system.
• Automatic graphics driver detection has been improved
  • The menu has been removed.
  • If no better graphics driver could be found, VESA or SCFB is used.
  • Autodetection will now run only if the system configuration changed since the last successful detection.
  • Autodetection can be disabled via the boot menu in case there is a problem.
• Touchpad support has been improved
  • If Xorg reports a problem with the touchpad, kern.evdev.rcpt_mask is automatically adjusted to use sysmouse.
  • The tool DSBXinput has been added which allows for easy configuration of touchpads and mice.
• An rc-script for saving an restoring the display brightness has been added.
• A GUI for easy installation of the Linux Chrome, Brave and Vivaldi browser has been added. They allow to use streaming services like Netflix, Prime Video, or Spotify.
• Support for selecting other window managers or desktop environments by pressing <F1> in the graphical login manager (SLiM) has been added.
• wifimgr has been replaced by NetworkMgr.
• The subsystem for auto-starting applications used by NomadBSD does now conform to the XDG autostart specs
• The partition which uses the remaining space is now mounted under /data.
• /compat, /var/tmp, /var/db, and /usr/ports are now nullfs mount points for their counterparts under /data, so that users don’t have to create symlinks for those directories anymore.
• Bad news for i386 users: Since drm-legacy-kmod is now obsolete, there is no i386 support for accelerated graphics for Intel and ATI/AMD cards aymore.

The first release candidate of NomadBSD 1.4 is now available!
