After their huge version 43 release recently bringing with it initial ASUS ROG Ally support, ChimeraOS Linux has a first bug fix release out. This is the Linux distribution aimed primarily at gaming devices, giving you a SteamOS-like environment with a bunch of extra tweaks along with wider hardware support.
ChimeraOS 43-1 is now available, as their first proper bug-fix version using their new release process allowing them to easily rebuild older releases with smaller updates.
What's in it:
Main Components
- linux-chimeraos 6.3.9-chos2
- OpenGamepadUI 0.19.2
- Mesa version: 23.1.3
Fixes and improvements
- Fixed a bug with flatpaks not starting in GamepadUI due to some Nvidia Vulkan shenannigans that affected non-Nvidia users.
- Fix the Return to GameMode shortcut on Desktop mode to return to the correct session that was used before switching.
- removed ryzenadj-controller (not ryzenadj itself) due to some incompatibilities with python's asyncio.
