Weekly image #3, and announcements.

This is the news for Jan 2026. From now on every month we'll have a news post for progress update.

NVIDIA is coming to LXG

NVIDIA will be available in the upcoming #3 release of LXGT, utilizing nvis. However, there will be no ISO with preinstalled drivers.

Reworking how we maintain system sources and tools

We're considering updating the system via dpkg. As you may know, we don't have such luxury of having our own Debian repo, and thus need to update the system in other ways. 

Most of the time we need to update our tools (nvis and sysu, and some more), sometimes rewriting the repo. So we've been thinking of jamming all the updates to a .deb file, then sysu can check for system updates and download and install if needed.

On Open Gaming Collective (OGC)

We've received news that our (one-sided) partner PikaOS have joined OGC, an organization aims to make Linux gaming better.

OGC have their own kernel, which is based on SteamOS' kernel (I'll talk about this later). It caters more to handheld gaming devices, which for us is out of scope.

For now, we won't use their kernel yet. However we'll experiment with that, and would reconsider at a later date.
We're also very welcome to work with OGC, if they want.

So yeah. WI#3 will release some days/weeks from now. See ya!
