Hello community, here we are for our massive first Year 2024 update. After two months of work we are happy to finally release Manjaro 24.0 Wynsdey to the world. This package includes over 8166 package updates in multiple areas. For desktop environments we have now Plasma 6, Gnome 46 and LxQT 2.0 to name a few. Another cool thing is that we are the first distro shipping Linux 6.9 Kernel as default option. Those who rely on stability can still have install medias with LTS Kernels such as 6.6 and 6.1. A lot of updates to the graphics stack like Mesa and drivers with this update. Also in Office space we have the latest LibreOffice updates such as Mozilla’s Firefox and Thunderbird. If you emulate computers the latest VirtualBox is included also with this one.
We are looking forward to your feedback when our stable install medias of Manjaro 24.0 Wynsdey got released …
