4MLinux 50.0 Core BETA released.

 

4MLinux 50.0 Core running in QEMU

This is a core system (only about 16 MB in size) for the 4MLinux 50 series. The system includes: the Linux kernel 6.12.41, GNU C Library 2.42, and BusyBox 1.37.0. The 4MLinux 50 series uses GNU Compiler Collection 15.1.1 to compile programs designed for the x86_64 architecture.

Despite its extremely small size, 4MLinux Core supports both BIOS and UEFI boot modes.

4MLinux 49.0 STABLE released.

 

4MLinux 49.0 STABLE

The status of the 4MLinux 49.0 series has been changed to STABLE. Edit your documents with LibreOffice 25.2 and GNOME Office (AbiWord 3.0.6, GIMP 3.1.2, Gnumeric 1.12.59), surf the Internet with Firefox 140.0 and Chrome 138.0, send emails via Thunderbird 140.0, enjoy your music collection with Audacious 4.4.2, watch your favorite videos with VLC 3.0.21 and SMPlayer 25.6.0, play games powered by Mesa 25.1.0 and Wine 10.11. You can also setup a very lightweight HTTP/FTP server (based on BusyBox 1.37.0). Perl 5.40.2, Python 2.7.18, Python 3.13.3, and Ruby 3.4.3 are also available.

As always, the new major release has some new features. 4MLinux can now be installed on Bcachefs partitions (but only in UEFI mode). This release ships with much improved support for mobile devices (via Bluetooth and PTP/MTP protocols). Stella (Atari 2600 VCS emulator) and Brutal Chess have been added to the 4MLinux GamePack collection. Aqualung (music player), Googles (music manager), QWinFF (media converter), Fastfetch (system monitor) are now included out of the box. GIMP4, gnuplot (famous plots generator), ReZound (audio editor) are available as downloadable extensions. And finally, optional (ready-to-install) Intel VAPPI drivers can be found on the 4MLinux LiveCD.
