Fedora Asahi Remix 40 Now Available For Apple Silicon Devices (phoronix.com) 4

Michael Larabel reports via Phoronix: Building off the recent release of Fedora 40, Fedora Asahi Remix 40 is now available for this downstream of Fedora Linux that's optimized to run on Apple Silicon ARM systems. Fedora Asahi Remix continues to be one of the best ways of enjoying a Linux experience atop recent Apple Macs making use of their in-house M1/M2/M3 SoCs. With the Fedora Asahi Remix 40 release there is now conformant OpenGL 4.6 support thanks to the upgraded Mesa. There is also improved device compatibility with its newer kernel.

Fedora Asahi Remix continues to cater to using the KDE Plasma desktop by default. With the upgrade to Fedora Asahi Remix 40 this also means now transitioning to the KDE Plasma 6.0 desktop environment for their flagship desktop experience. A GNOME variant using GNOME 46 is also available.
You can learn more about the release via FedoraMagazine.org. Installation options are available at FedoraProject.org.

  • Asahi on Apple silicon is like enjoying a colonoscopy.
    • Gee, I remember when Linux being available on everything wasn't something to groan about.

      Btw those nerdy/geeky peeps you looked up to in your formative years, they didn't pick obscure computers/doodads to look fashionable, they made their choices because it suited their needs. My dad's friend, for example, picked Atari computers over Commodore/Amiga because of their midi support. That's it, it had nothing to do with that ancient playground battle.

  • At the moment, Asahi Linux on Apple hardware seems to make the best Linux ARM computer out there. It's kind of sad because the market is flooded with ARM hardware but the Linux experience on every one leaves a lot to be desired. It's a far cry from Linux in the PC world.
