Hello community,
today we published a Release Candidate of the Sculpt operating system
for x86-PC. During the last months we worked hard to apply our
reimagined Linux-device-driver environment also to PC devices and
updated drivers for USB, Wifi, and Intel graphics to a recent Linux
kernel version. This opens the prospect to support new PC platforms
(speak recent notebook devices) more easily in future releases.
The upcoming version of Sculpt replaces multiple integral device
drivers at once. For this reason, we concluded to pre-release an RC
and invite all Sculpt users to test it in their current setups. Please
feel to report back any regression, flaw, or oddity on this list or
the issue tracker over the next couple of days, so we can address them
before the final release.
The release candidate is based on the current master branch
https://github.com/genodelabs/genode/commit/8ece2366354c941ad2206f3d511cd75a1065bb75
and can be downloaded as ready-to-use disk image from

Happy testing
Christian
I tested the new release over the weekend on my T460p.
I both used wired and wireless networking to download packages.
When I used wireless to update the Linux running the wireless connection
went down in the middle of transferring data. I was only able to bring
it back up after restarting the WiFi driver. When this happened
downloading of package archives in sculpt also failed. This could be
related to #4083.
Otherwise everything worked flawless for me, and I have already updated
the built in disk with this new version.
Best regards, Pirmin
