FydeOS v11 is another milestone update. In this update, some long-awaited features, optimizations, and fixes to previously known issues have been added. Among them, the most worth mentioning are:
- The Chromium browser is upgraded to 86.0.4240.*, which synchronizes all the new features of the upstream browser.
- Added the ability to automatically mount the system to recognize the disk drive to the "File" program. Under the multi-system startup scheme, the "File" program can access files in the disks of other operating systems. Fixed the problem that a certain process of the Android subsystem continuously scans other disks and causes high CPU usage.
- Provide optimized "terminal" program, provide theme color setting options and provide multi-tab page switching function.
- Fix the problem that the Android subsystem cannot be accessed through adb in the previous version under Linux (beta).
- Fix the problem of duplicate bookmarks that may occur during synchronization.
- Optimized the security protection required for user registration and login operations.
The FydeOS released this time has some known problems and precautions, as follows:
- From the v11 version, FydeOS for PC will no longer provide cross-milestone version OTA updates. If you are using FydeOS for PC X, you can upgrade to FydeOS for PC v11 by downloading the image-flashing-reinstalling.
- If you are using FydeOS for You and are upgrading to FydeOS v11 via OTA, please pay attention to the upgrade prompts that the system prompts about the Linux subsystem. Only after completing the upgrade of the Linux subsystem can you use the relevant functions of Linux (beta) in FydeOS v11.
- Due to the security-related optimizations for user login in this version, there will be a significant time extension when the password is used to log in to the system again after the upgrade is completed. This is a known phenomenon and will disappear and return to normal after use.
