Raspberry Pi OS 12 (Bookworm) released - TheOldPresbyope - 10-11-2023
Checked the RPi site this morning. The OS downloads are now dated Oct. 10 and are based on Debian Bookworm.
ETA - still Kernel 6.1

The 2023-10-10 section of the release notes (from the release notes file for raspi_lite_arm64 but I suspect they're all the same). Several changes will bear looking into vis-a-vis moOde.
Quote:2023-10-10:
* Based on Debian bookworm release
* Support for Raspberry Pi 5
* Desktop now runs on the Wayfire Wayland compositing window manager on Raspberry Pi 4 and 5 platforms; on X11 using the openbox window manager on older platforms
* lxpanel replaced with new wf-panel-pi application when running Wayland; existing lxpanel plugins migrated; gpu performance and power plugins added
* pcmanfm modified to use Wayland backend when running on Wayland
* PipeWire used instead of PulseAudio as audio control subsystem; various changes made to volume control plugin to support this
* NetworkManager used instead of dhcpcd as networking interface; various changes made to networking plugin to support this
* Firefox browser added as alternative to Chromium; selection of default browser added to Raspberry Pi Configuration tool
* WayVNC VNC server used instead of RealVNC when running on Wayland
* All customisation and configuration applications modified to customise Wayfire environment as appropriate
* grim used as screenshot tool instead of scrot when running on Wayland
* eom image viewer used instead of gpicview
* evince document viewer used instead of qpdfview
* Chromium web browser updated to version 116
* VLC media player updated to version 3.0.18
* Magnifier program not available when running Wayland; Wayfire includes screen zoom capabilities
* CustomPC and Wireframe removed from Bookshelf
* Numerous small changes and bug fixes
* Switched from raspberrypi-kernel to Debian-based kernel packaging (linux-image-rpi-*)
* Switched from raspberrypi-bootloader to Debian based firmware packaging (raspi-firmware)
* /boot mount point moved to /boot/firmware

Fun times ;-)
There are some interesting change items in the release notes.
Code: * Support for Raspberry Pi 5
* Desktop now runs on the Wayfire Wayland compositing window manager on Raspberry Pi 4 and 5 platforms; on X11 using the openbox window manager on older platforms
* NetworkManager used instead of dhcpcd as networking interface; various changes made to networking plugin to support this
* Firefox browser added as alternative to Chromium; selection of default browser added to Raspberry Pi Configuration tool
* Chromium web browser updated to version 116
* Switched from raspberrypi-kernel to Debian-based kernel packaging (linux-image-rpi-*)
* Switched from raspberrypi-bootloader to Debian based firmware packaging (raspi-firmware)
* /boot mount point moved to /boot/firmware
Just as a heads up, it's prolly not going to be part of an end-of-year moOde release because of the amount of work for development and testing that will likely be needed to update the package and image build tooling and moOde application code but we should definitely start working with the new OS asap.
Also, it's best to wait a bit to allow the new OS to go through a bug fix cycle or two and some kernel bumps.
RE: Raspberry Pi OS 12 (Bookworm) released - Tim Curtis - 10-11-2023
Btw, did they ship with 6.1.21 kernel?
RE: Raspberry Pi OS 12 (Bookworm) released - TheOldPresbyope - 10-11-2023
Stay tuned: installing now. The download site just says "Kernel 6.1"
Shudda mentioned that the Raspberry Pi Imager program has been upgraded to v1.7.5 to match.

Oy.

Without thinking I first booted the 32-bit distribution on an RPi3B+. Had to think twice why uname was telling me I had a 64-bit kernel running...then the penny dropped and I moved the uSD card to a ZeroW.
Life is interesting.

RE: Raspberry Pi OS 12 (Bookworm) released - Tim Curtis - 10-11-2023
Just a few minor differences. lol
Whats the kernel version directory under /lib/modules/ ??
For a list of audio overlays try the command below:
Code: grep "sound-dai-cells" /boot/firmware/overlays/*
RE: Raspberry Pi OS 12 (Bookworm) released - TheOldPresbyope - 10-11-2023
For the 64-bit release on the RPi4B,
Code: kreed@raspios1264:~ $ ls /lib/modules/
6.1.0-rpi4-rpi-2712 6.1.0-rpi4-rpi-v8
You can guess from that what the 32-bit release contains.
As for audio overlays, that's a cute trick. I get a total of 64 "<filename>,dtbo: binary file matches" whether in moOde 8.3.6 or in the newly installed RaspiOS 12. A quick read through the lists of hits suggests they are the same.

Kent

At least the overlay list is the same, lol
I suppose there must be a way to decode 6.1.0-rpi4-rpi-2712 into the specific kernel version for example 6.1.21. It's important so we know which commits are included.
