After years of development I am happy to announce stillOS 10 Preview (The Becoming).
Despite being the first version, we are tracking RHEL's versioning scheme, hense the 10.
For all the available features check the home page of the website, although note, stillTerminal is not yet available in the preview. I also recommend watching my LinuxFest Northwest talk about stillOS:
Here is a list of known issues in this preview, crossed out issues have been fixed, and we recommend running a manual update with sudo bootc upgrade. We are working on a way to update graphically:
- stillCenter
- Not Many Apps (We will be curating apps in the coming week) (June 13th 2025)
- No graphical way to force trigger system updates yet (currently only done silently in the background automatically) (June 13th 2025)
Missing Icons (should be fixed tomorrow) (June 13th 2025)Search is laggy (June 13th 2025)stillCenter uses old repo for curated apps, update to fix this (June 21st 2025)- Install percent doesn't account for dependencies (June 13th 2025)
- Some apps included in the OS image are marked as not installed inside stillCenter since stillCenter only installs Flatpaks
- stillControl
- Thinks you are using a custom layout instead of the default on launch (June 13th 2025)
- GDM
- Uses Red Hat font, when the rest of the system switches back to the vanilla GNOME font (Update as of June 21st, this is fixed in the code base but needs a new ISO, and isn't fixed automatically, current installations use the Red Hat font system wide).
- Installer
- Only the en_US keyboard layout shows up (June 14th 2025)
The final version of 10 will drop once we finish stillTerminal, populate the app store, port the welcome screen from risiOS, and add support for NVIDIA graphics.
Any feedback would be appreciated, either on the forum or in the read me.
