Hello community,
today we published a Release Candidate of the Sculpt operating system for x86-PC. During the last months we worked hard to apply our reimagined Linux-device-driver environment also to PC devices and updated drivers for USB, Wifi, and Intel graphics to a recent Linux kernel version. This opens the prospect to support new PC platforms (speak recent notebook devices) more easily in future releases.
The upcoming version of Sculpt replaces multiple integral device drivers at once. For this reason, we concluded to pre-release an RC and invite all Sculpt users to test it in their current setups. Please feel to report back any regression, flaw, or oddity on this list or the issue tracker over the next couple of days, so we can address them before the final release.
I am happy to report that (in light testing) everything seems to work as before on my ThinkPad L380 Yoga. The touchscreen still puts Nitpicker into a "click-free" state, but I suspect that's because the USB HID driver hasn't been converted to the new system yet.
BTW, thanks for putting out this disk image! I have been very interested in testing this since the 22.02 release, but I've been getting build errors in "pkg/pc_usb_host" on my Debian Unstable system, some of which I haven't been able to solve (with my limited time and knowledge).
Interestingly, using the commit you referenced, "pkg/pc_usb_host" builds now, but I get the following error in "pkg/wifi":
[Linux] /home/mainuser/Devel/genode_main/genode/depot/genodelabs/api/pc_linux/2022-04-12/src/linux/scripts/extract-cert.c:21:10: fatal error: openssl/bio.h: No such file or directory [Linux] 21 | #include <openssl/bio.h> [Linux] | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [Linux] compilation terminated.
In any case, this is really exciting progress!
Happy Sculpting!
