‍COSMIC Epoch 1.5 Компания System76 представила COSMIC Epoch 1.5 — очередное обновление написанного на Rust рабочего окружения для Linux. Выпуск состоялся 29 июля 2026 года, всего через неделю после COSMIC Epoch 1.4, и сосредоточен преимущественно на исправлении ошибок, повышении стабильности композитора и доработке недавно появившегося эффекта матового стекла. В композиторе cosmic-comp добавлено обходное решение для исправления отображения приложений на базе Chromium, они некорректно отображались при дробном масштабе меньше 100%. Улучшено восстановление после сброса графического процессора: теперь COSMIC не должен аварийно завершаться, если после сброса GPU не удалось сразу создать новый модуль визуализации. Также исправлены взаимная блокировка D-Bus в средстве контроля специальных клавиш, переключение фокуса окон X11 и положение указателя у границ экрана.

Mosaic is an i3-style auto-tiling extension for GNOME Shell Mosaic brings i3-style automatic tiling to GNOME Shell without asking you to choose it permanently.

Expand the toggle to access more options or get at Mosaic’s settings. It’s the on-demand nature makes Mosaic more interesting. When the auto-tiling mode is active (the toggle is turned on) all your windows tile […] You're reading Mosaic is an i3-style auto-tiling extension for GNOME Shell, a blog post from OMG! Ubuntu.
