The elementary OS team has released version 8.1, a stable update based on Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS and powered by Linux kernel 6.14. This version makes the Wayland-based Secure Session the default, adds ARM64 support for devices like Apple Silicon Macs, and introduces new apps for system monitoring and maps.
Ubuntu has launched public testing for a Snap package of Steam on ARM64 systems, using FEX emulation to bridge the gap from x86 support. This move aims to bring Valve's gaming platform to ARM-based Linux devices like laptops and single-board computers. The initiative marks a significant step toward broader compatibility, though it remains experimental.
