Budgie 10.10 Plan

WetGeek

tomscharbach I used Budgie from 2017, but moved to Plasma in the Spring/Summer of 2022

Welcome back, Tom! Still workin' on the railroad in your retirement? (Hoping I can be forgiven a brief off-topic excursion to great an old friend.)

So hyped for this!

The end to the saga of #Budgie 10.10 development is near! We just put out Budgie 10.10-preview.1, intended for packagers (e.g. Fedora and Ubuntu) to start shipping in preparation for their releases next year.

Budgie 10.10-preview.1 is (as the name implies) a preview release and features unfinished components like Budgie Display Configurator, but still excited to ship this! 🎉

Also don't think about checking what Budgie Display Services / Configurator are written in. 😉

Josh:
"This release of Budgie Desktop is a preview (non-final) release of Budgie 10.10, supporting only Wayland...
...This should NOT be packaged for stable repositories, rather it should strictly be shipped in development repositories (for example, Fedora "rawhide") or any other repositories that communicate an in-development or testing nature (Ubuntu PPAs)."

emphasis mine. interesting times, baby 🙂

Budgie 10.10 Wayland Immutable already at Fedora...would not install on my laptop so I could not taste the future

brent Is it on Rawhide? If so you can just install the regular Atomic Budgie and rebase to rawhide.

elfprince

brent Please keep that future far away from me. 😆

I didn't want to do that much work when they had a special iso for the budgie version plus I don't think my old laptop met the specs anyways.

elfprince Please keep that future far away from me.

I really wanted to know if I'd hate it or love it or get used to it but it was not to be. Until then we can keep that future far from us.

Looks like anyone who wants to test it Fedora Rawhide has it now. In VM I had to switch off openGL for display as I got issues like cursor upsidedown etc.

I Dunno if I will even move to wayland budgie when it comes out really like way my laptop is now.

Axios In the long run, you'll have no other choice. Postponed is not canceled... Always embrace the unknown...

we should probably advertise hearing aids, denture cleaner, and shower mats at the Main Site. the cross-traffic would be phenomenal.
