Berlin-based T2 Linux developer [1]René Rebe is also long-time Slashdot reader [2]ReneR — and popped by with a special announcement for the holidays:
> The T2 Linux team has unveiled [3]T2 Linux SDE 24.12 , codenamed "Sky's the Limit!", delivering a massive update for this highly portable source-based Linux distribution... With 3,280 package updates, 206 new features, and the ability to boot on systems with as little as 512MB RAM, this release further strengthens T2 Linux's position as the ultimate tool for developers working across diverse hardware and embedded systems.
Some highlights from Rene's announcement:
"The release includes 37 pre-compiled ISOs with Glibc, Musl, and uClibc, supporting 25 CPU architectures like ARM(64), RISCV(64), Loongarch64, SPARC(64), and vintage retro computing platforms such as M68k, Alpha, and even initial Nintendo Wii U support added."
" The Cosmic Desktop, a modern Rust-based environment, debuts alongside expanded application support for non-mainstream RISC architectures, now featuring LibreOffice, OpenJDK, and QEMU."
And [4]T2sde.org gives this glimpse of the future:
"While initially created for the Linux kernel, T2 already has proof-of-concept support for building 'home-brew' pkg for Other OS, including: BSDs, macOS and Haiku. Work on alternative micro [5]kernels , such as L4, Fuchsia, RedoxOS or integrating building 'AOSP' Android is being worked on as well."
