EndeavourOS Apollo Release Introduces a new Worm Window Manager
|
||
======
|
||
|
||
EndeavourOS is an Arch-based distro that focuses on a terminal-centric user experience along with all the other goodies.
|
||
|
||
With its latest Apollo release, the EndeavourOS team has made efforts to improve the community editions, resolve some existing issues, and add a new window manager.
|
||
|
||
### EndeavourOS Apollo: What’s New?
|
||
|
||
The most significant changes include a brand-new Window Manager “Worm” and having FirewallD installed (and enabled) by default.
|
||
|
||
Let us take a brief look at the changes along with other improvements.
|
||
|
||
#### New Worm Window Manager
|
||
|
||
![][1]
|
||
|
||
Worm is a lightweight window manager developed by one of the community editions team members (Codic12). It is written in [Nim][2].
|
||
|
||
Presently, it is based on X11 and does not support Wayland.
|
||
|
||
The window manager focuses on performance while being able to work with floating/tiling modes with essential window decorations that include minimize, maximize, and close buttons.
|
||
|
||
The layout can even operate nicely on a semi-embedded device like Pi Zero.
|
||
|
||
#### Linux Kernel 5.17
|
||
|
||
[Linux Kernel 5.17][3] is all about supporting next-gen hardware. If you are looking to try an Arch-based distro on the latest hardware configuration, EndeavourOS should be a nice option to start with.
|
||
|
||
#### FirewallD Installed and Enabled
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
While not everyone appreciates having a firewall enabled by default, with the latest Apollo release, EndeavourOS will have it baked in and active after installation.
|
||
|
||
#### New Quickstart App
|
||
|
||
![][5]
|
||
|
||
A GUI app to launch after the first boot (quickstart) was added to help you choose/install common and helpful apps.
|
||
|
||
It provides the selection of applications using the Arch repo and not the [AUR][6].
|
||
|
||
#### A New Nvidia Driver Installer
|
||
|
||
The existing nvidia-installer-dkms app was rewritten as an improved command-line tool to make the process easier and more efficient.
|
||
|
||
The tool is still in its beta phase, but it is a good addition for users with Nvidia graphics.
|
||
|
||
#### Improvements to the Installer
|
||
|
||
Various improvements to the installation process were made, like the addition of an internet check before installation, a fix for DE selection, and more technical work to improve the experience.
|
||
|
||
#### Other Improvements
|
||
|
||
![][7]
|
||
|
||
Along with the key highlights, there are plenty of important fixes and changes that include:
|
||
|
||
* Disable Bluetooth by default, but active in the Live environment.
|
||
* Applying compression on installed files for btrfs.
|
||
* Community editions with dedicated display manager, including Light DM, Slick greeter, Lxdm, ly, and GDM.
|
||
* Automatically choosing the closest EndeavourOS mirror.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
You can learn more about the latest release in their [official announcement][8].
|
||
|
||
### Download EndeavourOS Apollo
|
||
|
||
The latest ISO is available on their official website. You can head to the [downloa][9][d][9] [page][9] and get the ISO from one of the mirrors available.
