IceWM, a lightweight X Window System manager created by Marko Maček in 1997, has released version 4.1.0 dated August 6, 2026. The project is maintained on GitHub and is packaged for major Linux distributions including Debian, Ubuntu, Arch and most BSD systems, offering keyboard-driven navigation, a taskbar, multiple workspaces and support for over 450 community themes.
Amutable has introduced Quarry, a software delivery system designed to distribute the immutable OS images built with its earlier tool, tine.

Microsoft has updated its Edge documentation to formally list which Linux distributions are officially supported, including Ubuntu 18.04+, Debian 10+, openSUSE 15.5+, and Fedora Linux 39+ on 64-bit systems. Edge has run on Linux for years unofficially, but this marks the first formal support list, arriving roughly seven years after Google published a similar list for Chrome.
