    Man this almost escaped my attention. Thanks for the release topic on Linux Debian Bullseye.

    USA still the best. But barely.
    Where are SHA values for the Live nonfree flavors?

    I don't see any nonfree SHA there.

    I thought Canadians are supposed to be polite. LOL. Thanks that was what I was looking & couldn't find.

    I've been occasionally running the cinnamon with non-free version off of a live usb. I've seen nothing interesting so far, when compared to Buster v10. Mostly same old, same old.

    That's to be expected from "Steady Eddie" Debian.

    True enough, I just thought by now they would have mustered up some innovation and enhanced it visually at least.

    I hope not.
    We have enough "innovation" and visual "enhancements" from other quarters already, including other Linux Distros.
    Thanks Debian and Xfce for being boring and predictable.

    What I was speaking about above is that the Bullseye 5.0 + linux image/kernel has made some of my software run better than Buster with 4.0+. In one case it wouldn't run on the image/kernel below 5.0 +. Just reporting how it goes on my end.

    Debian is stable and don't expect to get bleeding edge software. Focus is on security and bug fixes.
