On Jan 6, the #VendefoulWolf #Linux maintainers released a new ISO with #IceWM and #XLibre by default. According to them, it boots very fast and uses only ~200 MB RAM. You can read more about this #Devuan based distribution at vendefoul-wolf-linux.sourceforge.io. #XingsDay

🚀 Nueva feature en mi proyecto Conky weather para AntiX / IceWM

Agregué monitoreo de radiación UV usando la API de @openmeteo , incluyendo:
• UV actual
• UV máximo diario
• Hora del pico de radiación

Todo ligero, en Bash y pensado para hardware modesto 🐧

Dagens tilpasninger i #IceWM

- Starte Thunar fra verktøylinje
- Tastekombinasjon Alt-Ctrl f for å starte Thunar
- Større font for xterm når den startes fra både verktøylinje og vha tastekombinasjonene Alt-Ctrl t
- Kraftig opprydning av meny

🧠💡
Conclusión:

IceWM 4.0 prepara el terreno
Conky ya estaba listo
picom pone la última pieza

👉 Ahora la transparencia real sí es posible en antiX.

#antix + #iceWM (4.0) + #picom = #conky (con fondo transparente)

🧵 HILO | IceWM 4.0 + Conky + picom en antiX 🧊🐧
(Transparencias reales, sin inflar el sistema)

🪟✨
Con la llegada de IceWM 4.0 en antiX hay un cambio importante:
👉 ahora el gestor de ventanas soporta RGBA de 32 bits y alpha blending por defecto.

Esto no agrega efectos…
pero deja de bloquearlos 👀

#antiX #Debian #Linux #IceWM #SoftwareLibre #Actualizaciones #FLOSS #conky

🖥️ IceWM 4.0.0 (salto importante) ❄️🚀

🎨 Apariencia y gráficos actualizados

La transparencia (alpha blending) y el modo RGBA de 32 bits ahora están activados por defecto, lo que mejora cómo se ven ciertas transparencias sin tener que configurar nada.
Se eliminaron algunas opciones antiguas

👉 Estos cambios hacen que IceWM se adapte mejor a monitores modernos.

#antiX #Debian #Linux #IceWM #SoftwareLibre #Actualizaciones #FLOSS

🖥️ IceWM 4.0.0 (salto importante) ❄️🚀

Esta sí es una actualización destacada:

Mejor compatibilidad con sistemas modernos
Correcciones de errores acumulados
Código más limpio y mantenible
Mayor estabilidad general del gestor de ventanas

👉 No es un rediseño radical, pero IceWM ahora es más sólido y preparado para el futuro, manteniendo su filosofía: rápido, liviano y simple ⚡

Llegan mejoras tanto para edición de imágenes como para el escritorio IceWM 👀✨

🎨 GIMP (2.10.34 → deb12u6)

🔒 Esta actualización no cambia cómo se ve ni cómo se usa GIMP, pero sí es importante:

Corrige fallos internos de seguridad y estabilidad
Evita problemas al abrir imágenes dañadas o poco comunes
Hace que el programa sea más confiable y seguro
