EndeavorOS Artemis Neo 22.7 released with kernel 5.18.16
Bryan Poerwo announced the release of EndeavorOS Artemis Neo 22.7.
Check out the news and see where to download the distribution.
Endeavor is an Arch Linux based distribution that is considered a continuation of Antergos,
a system that was recently discontinued.
The development team emerged from Antergos developers and community members.
Now, EndeavorOS founder Bryan Poerwo has announced the release and general availability of EndeavorOS
Artemis Neo 22.7 as the newest ISO snapshot of this Arch Linux-based GNU/Linux distribution
for the masses.
What's New in EndeavorOS Artemis Neo 22.7
EndeavorOS Artemis Neo is here a month and a half after EndeavorOS Artemis as a minor
update, mainly to offer those looking to deploy the Arch Linux based distribution on new computers
with an up-to-date install/live medium with some of the latest and greatest major GNU/Linux
technologies and open source software.
Powered by the Linux kernel 5.18.16, as well as the Mesa 22.1.4, XOrg Server 21.1.4 and
NVIDIA 515.65.01 graphics stacks, EndeavorOS Artemis Neo downgrades the Calamares graphical
installer to version 3.2.59 from 3.2.60 to resolve a local issue, fix an archlinux keyring
issue that affects offline installations, and add the ability for the installation process
to sort EndeavorOS mirrors for online installations in addition to Arch Linux mirrors.
In the release announcement, Bryan Poerwo said:
“This version is not shipping with major improvements from our side, but it does have
some fixes from last month's Artemis release and an upstream update to the live environment
and offline installation option.
So there are no fixes made to the DE options like the empty icon in our Plasma installs.
We are working on it.”
So the developers have not yet addressed more important issues such as the empty icon in
KDE Plasma installations, which will likely be implemented in the next major release which
will be released later this year.
Download and try EndeavorOS Artemis Neo 22.7 EndeavorOS Artemis arrived in late June 2022
as a massive update to this popular GNU/Linux distribution for Arch Linux fans, bringing
new features like WirePlumber as default session and policy manager for PipeWire, support for
downgrading EndeavourOS packages, a Budgie smoother and native desktop experience, as
well as an integrated installation option for EndeavorOS ARM.
Existing EndeavorOS Artemis users do not need to download the new ISO version to keep their
installations up to date.
If you are running EndeavorOS Artemis, all you need to do to receive the mentioned updates
is run the sudo command pacman -Syuin a terminal emulator or use your favorite graphical package
manager to apply the latest updates.

The Arch Linux-based EndeavourOS has released an update to its existing “Artemis” version,
“Artemis Neo.”
Here’s what’s new!
EndeavourOS is a user-friendly Arch Linux-based rolling release distro with some handy new
features that improve the user experience.
In other words, it fits into a similar-but-different niche as Manjaro.
Indeed, one of the first things you’ll notice about EndeavourOS is that, despite its claim
to be a terminal-focused distribution, it has excellent GUI tools that make handling
an Arch Linux system simple for new users.
About a month after the previous “Artemis” release, the new EndeavourOS “Artemis Neo”
is now available for download.
So let’s see what’s new.
EndeavourOS “Artemis Neo” Highlights
EndeavourOS users will likely be disappointed to learn that this release contains almost
no new features.
According to the official announcement, this version is intended for users who want to
install a fresh copy of EndeavourOS.
Therefore, this release does not include significant improvements.
Still, it contains some fixes to the “Artemis” release, an upstream update for the live environment,
and the offline install option.
So let’s go over them.
The main thing is that the bug with archlinux-keyring while trying to install offline has been fixed.
For information of our readers, EndeavourOS provides users with a choice between two types
of installation: offline and online.
Offline installation doesn’t require an internet connection and provides a fully themed
Xfce desktop environment.
On the other hand, the online installation gives you the choice of eight desktop environments:
Xfce, Mate, LXQt, LXDE, Cinnamon, Plasma, Gnome, Budgie, and tiling window managers
i3-WM, BSPWM, Sway, Qtile, and Worm.
The next fix addresses the issue with the locales in the Calamares installer.
EndeavourOS “Artemis Neo” solves the problem by simply downgrading the Calamares version
from 3.2.60 to 3.2.59.
The last change is related to evaluating speed of access to the different mirrors from which
the software is installed.
So, in addition to the Arch mirrors, the installation process also ranks the EndeavourOS mirrors
for online installs.
Finally, in the list of software that has received updates in EndeavourOS “Artemis
Neo,” you can find Linux kernel 5.18.16, Calamares 3.2.59, Firefox 103, Mesa 22.1.4,
Xorg-Server 21.1.4, and nvidia-dkms 515.65.01.
Despite the minor changes, the developers point out that the lack of novelties is primarily
because most of the EndeavourOS team is on vacation during the summer.
However, they have hinted that a fresh new major release will be available by the end
of the year.
You can refer to the official announcement for detailed information about all changes.
In addition, you can get your copy from the project’s download page if you want a fresh
EndeavourOS “Artemis Neo” install.

EndeavourOS Artemis Neo is released with minor improvements
The developers of EndeavourOS have announced the release of Artemis Neo, which comes with
some minor improvements to the operating system.
EndeavourOS Artemis Neo was released to deliver some minor improvements and bug fixes to the
Arch Linux-based operating system.
The “Neo” update comes approximately one and a half months after the release of EndeavourOS
Artemis, which was released in late June this year.
Due to the summer holidays among the developers, EndeavourOS Artemis Neo could not fix the
desktop environment-level problems.
EndeavourOS, one of the most popular Linux-based operating systems, has received a new update
dubbed “Artemis Neo”.
This update comes approximately one and a half months after the release of the 22.6
Artemis version, which landed at the end of June.
In this small time scope, the developers have fixed some issues with EndeavourOS Artemis.
Calamares is downgraded The “Neo” update for the Arch Linux-based
distribution comes with Linux kernel 5.18.16.arch1-1 version.
The Nvidia DKMS driver of the release is the 5.15.65.01-1 version as well.
Neo delivers Mesa 22.1.4-1, Xorg-Server 21.1.4-1, and Firefox 103.0-1 with the update.
Additionally, Calamares, the installer framework of the operating system, was downgraded to
3.2.59 due to an issue with 3.2.60.
While the update fixes the archlinux-keyring problem that occurred in offline installs,
the online installation process also utilizes EndeavourOS mirrors in addition to Arch mirrors.
In the release announcement, it states that they could not fix the issues in the desktop
environments side due to the summer holiday mode of the developers; and those issues are
likely to be fixed with a major release this year:
This release isn’t shipping with big improvements from our side but has some corrections to
the Artemis release from last month and an upstream refresh for the live environment
and the offline install option.
So there aren’t any fixes done on the DE options like the empty icon on our Plasma
installations.
We are working on it, but most of our team is in Summer holiday mode, so these changes
will be shipping on one of our upcoming major releases later this year.
Update EndeavourOS Artemis to Artemis Neo Users can simply update their EndeavourOS
Artemis installations by using the following command in the Terminal:
sudo pacman -Syu
