Post by porteux »

Special thanks to Puppy guys who helped me fixing the kernel build. :)

Highlights of this release:

1. fixed bluetooth not being detected on quick boots
2. fixed some Intel bluetooth devices not being detected
3. fixed GUI related cheatcodes not always being loaded
4. added support to boot via Ventoy
5. added PorteuX Power Profile Switcher application to handle different CPU governors in order to maximize battery life or performance; settings will persist after boot
6. removed the following power manager packages because they were either causing issues or not working properly: power-profiles-daemon, powertop, TLP
7. removed dhcp (replaced with internal NetworkManager dhcp)
8. patched lxtask (LXDE) to inform correct memory consumption
9. updated kernel to 6.6.1 (waiting for 6.6.6!)
10. updated GNOME to 45.1 (current only)
11. updated KDE to 5.27.9 (current only)
12. updated LXQt to 1.4.0
13. updated many packages in both stable and current, including: sysvinit (3.08), procps (4.0.4), unrar (6.2.12)
14. updated some PorteuX application icons
