Changelog:

– Simpledrm disabled in kernel. This was originally enabled in Fedora upstream and causes several current problems with Nvidia drivers. By disabling this we can freely swap between rpmfusion and/or negativo17 without worrying about needing extra kernel boot options or touching user grub configurations. This should also allow Nvidia users to boot the live USB environments without needing nomodeset.

– Nvidia installer now uses pkcon to install packages (this is the same way gnome-software and kde-discover install packages). This avoids possible points of failure by not requiring the installer to need sudo password input to install the required packages. No password input required = no failure due to invalid passwords or parsing passwords with non-standard characters.

– Anaconda installer will no longer make a separate /home partition for default LVM installations. After several users complained about their root being small and not knowing about these defaults, let alone how to change them in the installer, it was decided for user convenience that we would just let root have all the space and not use a separate partition for /home in the LVM partition layout.

– Steam Tinker Launch package added to all builds

Changelog:
-Removed some unnecessary rocm packages from the ISOs
-Blender is now packaged with full CUDA and HIP support, as well as the required rendering kernels to do so. It is able to be used on a fresh install now with no extra configurations needed (except Nvidia drivers if you’re on Nvidia)
-Nvidia installer has been updated, is much more verbose now and validates the nvidia module is loaded before prompting for a reboot.
-Negativo17 nvidia drivers are now used instead of rpmfusion.
-verified libreoffice is actually removed from the ISOs now and not pulled in as a dependency

Changelog:
– fixed broken rocm-hip envvar
– fixed inverted colors in obs-gamecapture for opengl
– fixed libreoffice packages still being added to the ISOs (was caused by a group inclusion)
– added updated vapoursynth package
– fixed optional recommended packages from rocm-hip being pulled in on ISOs

Changelog:

• rocm-opencl added — Allows Davinci Resolve to work on a clean install (Thank you Cosmo for all the ROCM work!!!)
• als-plugins-pulseaudio added — Fixes 1 second audio delay in Davinci Resolve
• rocm-hip packages added — Allows Blender to work with GPU rendering on AMD on clean install (Thank you Cosmo for all the ROCM work!!!)
• latest Blender alpha compiled with HIP support — tested HIP GPU rendering works but may crash on first try (it is an alpha)
• default office suite changed from LibreOffice to OnlyOffice for better template compatibility and cloud service support (Thanks to The Linux Experiment on YT https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s87xFvfeg7Y and Kassin from DXVK Discord)
• removed qgnomeplatform theme packages (they were breaking OBS and other QT package theming: https://nobaraproject.org/wp-admin/post.php?action=edit&post=535)
• qt5ct added, appmenu-qt5 removed from GNOME and Official builds for more theming compatibility (Thanks Cosmo)
• fixed broken shim that was causing ISO USB boot failures on some older systems (https://www.reddit.com/r/NobaraProject/comments/wobqp5/invalid_image_when_trying_to_boot_nobara_project/)
• Removed the nautilus-terminal plugin from Official iso because it has a problem with crashing when toggling show hidden files
• OBS theming is completely fixed now
• OBS gstreamer plugin now supports device choice for VAAPI encoder if you have multiple VAAPI gpu devices (such as amd/amd laptop or intel/amd desktop)
• xwayland patched with vsync fps limit bug fix: (https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/home:hwsnemo:xwayland/xwayland/xwayland-vsync.diff?expand=1)
• lutris updated to latest release

• fixed issue with dracut /sbin/sysctl no such file or directory being reported before live iso boot. gnome-boxes and nfs-utils have been removed from the official and gnome ISOs. gnome-boxes requires nfs-utils. nfs-utils was causing the dracut issue, so both have been removed from the isos. They can always be installed by the user afterwards.
• KDE ISO display corruption issue noted here has been resolved
• Issue with nobara repository gpg keys noted here resolved. keys are now packaged as part of the installation. Users shouldn’t get spammed to allow gpg keys upon first updates
• all ISOs will now automatically open the installer upon live boot
