Another user switched to #XLibre: "Finally took the dive and just installed on my desktop running #VoidLinux a few hours ago. Love it so far! … #Xorg had some glitchy problem with my old GPU, which seems to be liberated now."

The release of #GhostBSD 26.1 with #XLibre is approaching.

Together, we fixed a bug in the X configuration. Now we're looking for testers of the latest ISO https://ci.ghostbsd.org/jenkins/job/stable-15/job/Build%20ISO%20For%20Testing%20Packages in VMware, KVM, and bhyve. Please report the results back at https://forums.ghostbsd.org/d/796-ghostbsd-261-r150p2-testing-help-needed/7.

The YouTube channel "TheBlackDon" has been daily driving X11/XLibre on #CachyOS with #bspwm in 2026. He shared his experience regarding compatibility, screensharing, OBS plugins, absence of tearing, etc. at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrirCxiN458 .

The YouTube channel "I use Devuan btw" has been testing XLibre with the #Nvidia RTX 4060 using CUDA driver 590.48.01. He says, "It works great. OS is #devuan 6 excalibur with #openbox window manger. If your gpu supports version 570+ it'll work." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbhtNWhtp1A

There's an article on #XDA about staying with #X11 rather than using #Wayland for now.
"Despite the shiny new tech, X11 seems to be a more reliable option due to its compatibility with a variety of apps. It doesn’t break as often…" https://www.xda-developers.com/reasons-linux-users-would-stick-with-x11

At #FOSDEM 2026 there was a talk about "Separating the Wayland Compositor and Window Manager." While some of the #X11 facts are not entirely correct, we welcome the idea from a technical standpoint. ;-) https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/GR8BFE-separating_the_wayland_compositor_and_window_manager

#Xfce will keep #X11 compatibility for the foreseeable future besides their work on their Xfwl4 #Wayland compositor. That's stated at https://wiki.xfce.org/releng/wayland_roadmap#long_term_goals and still holds true as verified with some Xfce developers. We're happy to provide an X11 server to run Xfce on. #XLibre

@omar@mastodon.bsd.cafe Thank you for your feedback! From the inside, we're currently busy rolling out our 25.1 series to our testers and the public in general to gather feedback. The goal is to release 25.1 stable before turning to feature development again. Also, Vendefoul Wolf is one of the first distributions to package @sonicdesktop@mastodon.social which is relevant for the future of KDE on X11. They try things that other, more conservative distros prefer to "wait and see", thereby paving the way. That's the point here.

The #Vendefoul Wolf #Linux maintainers recently introduced their #Viriato series based on #Devuan 7 Freia. They ship both #XLibre and #Xorg as well as the #KDE and #SonicDE desktop environments. You can download the testing ISO at https://vendefoul-wolf-linux.sourceforge.io/ . Look for "Devuan 7".
