Hey @npub1hpw…cd0d 👋 Vanilla OS is in town this #GUADEC2025 and we’d love to meet some Fedora folks over coffee to chat and exchange ideas. Let us know if you’re around! ☕️

Did you know you can use the Vib (Vanilla Image Builder) to build any kind of Docker image?
Take a look at our website! https://vib.vanillaos.org/
It is a convenient way to build complex images for your projects ;)

we really take our time to release only good updates :3

Vanilla OS 3?
Vanilla OS 2 Orchid is receiving updates with fixes, improvements, new features and much more.. it is not a firm release and there is no point in discussing a hypothetical Vanilla OS 3 at this time.

New Vanilla OS release is live! 🎉 Updated all packages to latest Sid, fixed a critical abroot bug, added new translations, and minor fixes. GNOME Online Accounts now work for Firefox & Microsoft users (more improvements coming with GNOME 47). Get it via VSO or manually!

A user of our community has created a KDE version of vanilla. It is also possible to create a kind of image testing by building all parts of KDE from source or using a repository.

Answering the most popular questions.
Why do I have to set timezone and keyboard in both the installer and the first setup?
The answer is: OEM.
Why not make a non-OEM mode?
The answer is: Because after over a year of development we thought it would be better to postpone that to a later time.
You are welcome 😘

history that seems like a different bug. Can you report on our GitHub or discord?

use the standard ISO, the installer will prompt you to install the VM image

We fixed an issue with the installer crashing randomly due to the Wi-Fi check. Please let us know if the problem persist <3

We still have prototypes in mind to further simplify things without introducing technicalities to the user. They may come in the future, only time will tell 👀

We will be able to break down the barrier of immutability, or if nothing else we can get close to it. Thanks for the video!

Thanks to a close collaboration with our community members, we fixed some of the issues of Wayland on NVIDIA. Please upgrade your installation :)
#linux #nvidia

2024-08-04 17:16:18 UTC

Some NVIDIA users have reported issues, we are investigating since days, seems to be related to mutter nor gdm. For now it is a small number of users and the problem prevents the use of wayland and/or the second monitor. We will update you as soon as it is fixed.

2024-08-01 20:51:24 UTC

We have a new Updates page in our website, we'll start populating it starting from now!
