Key Highlights of Nitrux 3.9.1

1. Updated Core Technology
Nitrux 3.9.1 ships with Linux Kernel 6.13.8-4 (Liquorix), ensuring enhanced performance and stability. Several frameworks have been upgraded:

  • Qt 6 libraries (version 6.7.2) and KDE Frameworks 6 libraries (version 6.8.0) ensure compatibility and advanced features.
  • Updates to MESA, PipeWire, and GRUB, among others, enhance system functionality for developers and gamers alike.

2. MauiKit and Maui Apps: Foundation Updates
The MauiKit framework and related Maui Apps have been bumped to version 4.0.1, introducing a slew of fixes and new features:

  • Toast notifications now support contextual actions.
  • New controls such as TextField, Popup, and DropDownIndicator simplify user interface creation.
  • Apps receive updates for better functionality, including fixes in Station, Index, Vvave, and more.

3. Redesigned Desktop Experience

The desktop settings have been updated to include automatic power profile adjustments for laptops.

Refresh rates dynamically adjust depending on power sources, improving battery life and responsiveness. Additionally, new configurations for NVIDIA and AMD GPUs improve performance in demanding applications.

4. Hardware Support

The release brings updated firmware for a wide array of devices, including AMD GPUs, Intel Bluetooth adapters, Qualcomm Wi-Fi chips, and Realtek wireless devices.

These enhancements ensure optimal performance across more hardware.

5. Fiery Browser: A New Addition

Nitrux introduces Fiery, a new web browser built using MauiKit. While still in its early stages, Fiery offers features such as split-view mode but lacks functionality like incognito tabs, plugin support, and bookmark imports—a promising addition, albeit with notable limitations.
