“Experience the Excitement: Fedora Asahi Remix Takes the Linux World by Storm!”
Attention all Apple Mac Linux enthusiasts! The wait is finally over. Introducing the highly anticipated Fedora Asahi Remix 39, the FIRST full M1/M2 Linux distribution to hit the market. Now, all Apple M1 and M2 series owners can enjoy the power and versatility of Fedora Linux on their devices – MacBook, Mac Mini, Mac Studio, and iMac. Don’t worry, Mac Pros will also be supported in the upcoming Fedora Linux 40 release, along with OpenGL 4.x and Vulkan support, and complete Apple M1/M2 graphics compatibility.
For years, the talented programmers from the Fedora Project and Ashai Linux have been working tirelessly towards this ultimate Linux release. Initiated in 2021, this project has finally come to fruition in 2022, joining forces with the Arch ARM release to bring full Linux support to all Apple Silicon machines. The foundation for this remarkable feat was laid with extensive work on the kernel and bootloaders, which can now be shared across distributions. The result? A user-friendly M1/M2 Linux distribution that is perfect for daily use.
Fedora Asahi Remix 39 is based on the reliable Fedora Linux 39, utilizing the powerful Linux 6.5.6 kernel. Its default desktop environment, KDE Plasma 5.27 Long Term Support (LTS), promises a smooth, seamless experience with no tearing or glitching, just like on macOS. Not a fan of KDE? No problem – you can switch to GNOME 45 as your preferred desktop. Additionally, both options employ the Wayland window system and incorporate XWayland for legacy X11 support. OpenGL 3.3, with GPU-accelerated geometry shaders and transform feedback, makes it the world’s first certified conformant OpenGL ES 3.1 implementation for Apple Silicon devices.
But that’s not all – this next-generation Linux distro offers an effortless installation process with custom Calamares-based wizard, improved audio quality with the innovative open-source project speakersafetyd, and seamless audio-video integration with Pipewire 1.0 streaming software. And for those who prefer server or customized setups, there is also a Fedora Server variant and a Minimal image available.
Although there might still be some minor bugs to be addressed, the Fedora Asahi Remix 39 marks a significant milestone in bridging the gap between Linux and Apple Silicon hardware. The Fedora Project values user feedback and support, providing an issue tracker, a Discourse forum, and a Matrix room for reporting bugs, seeking assistance, and communicating with other users. Don’t miss out on this game-changing release and join the Fedora Asahi community today!
