The current release focuses on Genode as a desktop operating system
and brings lots of improvements in the whole software stack in this
regard. On the lower end, we ported the Intel graphics adapter driver
from Linux, which enables the use of multiple displays and dynamically
configure the screen resolution and connectors. The way up the stack
we added secure copy-paste in form of a clipboard component, which
supports configuration of the information flow and counters covert
communication. On the top, we extensively improved our GUI
implementation, most prominently visible by the ability to change the
window decorator on run time. The highlights of version 15.11 are
- Desktop OS features
- Vastly improved GUI stack
- Dynamic audio-mixer settings
- Copy and paste between subsystems
- New VFS component and VFS improvements
- New LOG aggregator
