PorteuX 2.9

Released 2026-11-04

This release is mostly about stability. All of our runtime code (initrd, rc scripts, porteux-scripts and installer) went through an in-depth review, fixing many bugs and making things safer. The kernel also got some performance work: faster zstd decompression, page cache reads without locking, and a lighter file open path. These help with module loading and general disk access. New in Xfce: you can now drag files from a window in the background straight into another one, without changing focus, just like on Windows. Fixed Chrome and LibreWolf crashing; fixed cheatcodes not working when porteux.cfg was edited on Windows; fixed modules activated through a symlink not releasing their loop device; fixed modules showing twice in the Others section of PorteuX Modules application; fixed leftover processes at shutdown not being killed before unmounting; fixed virtual machines not booting from virtio storage....
