[opensuse-xfce] Xfce 4.14 Has Landed in Tumbleweed!
Ahoy fellow geekos! We're proud to announce that the long awaited Xfce 4.14 has been released for Tumbleweed. After a long development cycle (4 years!) all of the core components and applications have been ported to GTK 3. Among the main new features and improvements, the xfwm4 window manager has finally gained support for VSync, HiDPI, hardware GLX and various compositor improvements. You can check out the neat new features in the official Xfce 4.14 tour [1] and the official release announcement [2]. For openSUSE, we continued to polish the default experience by adding new packages that complete the desktop and make it more approachable to new users. - Changed: Greybird Geeko is now the default GTK theme with particular thanks to Carson Black [3] - Changed: xfce4-screensaver is now the default screenlocker, replacing xscreensaver - Added: xfce4-panel-profiles, a tool to back up and restore your panel layout configuration as well as layout presets - Added: mugshot, a tool to easily input personal information and a user avatar, integrated into the Whisker Menu - Added: lightdm-gtk-greeter-settings, a tool to easily configure lightdm - Added: gnome-disk-utility, a disk management tool that allows you to mount ISO files For a quick overview, please check out the screenshots [4]. A big "thank you" to everyone who got involved in this release!

Not officially. However you can use the X11:xfce repo. Best, -- Maurizio Galli (MauG) Xfce Team https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Xfce -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-xfce+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-xfce+owner@opensuse.org
Thank you. Add repo, change it to systems packages (or whatever it is in English :), and it seems to work fine. Nice to have XFCE 4.14. Best, Lars Den 2019-08-23 kl. 21:04, skrev Maurizio Galli (MauG):
