Key updates for August SIG Groups
deepin LoongArch SIG: Introduction of support for “Old World” firmware
Wang Miao from the AnT Open Source Community has achieved compatibility for “Old World” firmware booting with Linux kernel and GRUB bootloader. This supports booting and starting deepin V23 official version on early LoongArch devices such as Lenovo Kintian M540z and Guoguang 4C5LG servers, allowing these devices to enjoy enhanced software and hardware compatibility with the updated “New World” system. Additionally, the LoongArch SIG has adapted os-prober modifications for deepin, supporting dual-boot between deepin 23 (“New World”) and UOS V20 (“Old World”), providing users with more freedom in choosing their desired system environment.
This compatibility mechanism will further lower the entry barriers for the “New World” ecosystem, giving users more confidence, capability, and motivation to switch to the more powerful, compatible, and sustainable “New World” ecosystem.
1、 deepin-ports SIG : Gradual support for hardware decoding and encoding on major RISCV devices.
2、 deepin -sysdev-team : Continuous maintenance and updates of repository packages in collaboration with various SIGs.
