This Week in TUXEDO OS #36-2024

Hello TUXEDO fans and open source enthusiasts!

This week, our penguins have been focussing on TUXEDO OS 4, which will soon be released on the basis of Ubuntu 24.04. We have published a preview image for you to test. We are also working on an update path from TUXEDO OS 3 to the new version.

Have fun reading

Updates TUXEDO OS

Preview for TUXEDO OS 4

We have put a preview of TUXEDO OS 4 based on Ubuntu 24.04 online for testing. The image brings

  • Kernel 6.8-tuxedo
  • Plasma 6
  • NVIDIA driver 560
  • Mesa 24.2.1

The only thing missing at this point is our configuration service Tomte, which is still being tested internally.

Please inform us of any issues with the image on GitLab. Notice: This image is not suitable for productive use. However, the stable release should not be long in coming.

Firefox 130 introduces Firefox Labs, a new function for testing experimental functions. In addition, ten security vulnerabilities have been closed.

Contact

We are personally there for you Monday to Friday from 9 am to 1 pm and from 2 pm to 5 pm (German time). But also outside these times you can contact our team with your request by e-mail. Please include your customer number, the model name of your laptop or PC and as detailed a description of your request as possible. The more details you give us, the faster we can process your request!

We might not be able to answer questions about third party hardware or software. For questions about popular open source software (Thunderbird, Filezilla...) please contact a forum e.g. ubuntuforums.org. The research effort for application specific setup is immense and not manageable at the current time. Basic compatibility questions e.g. are of course still welcome!

An extra function is available in your customer account for repair requests (RMA).

 

Shipping costs & delivery times

We ship your order to almost all countries, in Europe mostly even free of charge! The respective shipping costs and the cost threshold above which we will cover the costs for you can be found here or for international shipping in the table below.

 


Free shipping within Germany

There are no shipping costs within Germany for goods worth €100 or more.

 

7.99 € shipping cost at max!

No matter how many small articles you order, such as USB stick card reader, LAN adapters or fan articles, with us, you pay a maximum of 7.99 € shipping costs.

  • 7.99 € shipping fee for all orders below 100 € of goods
  • Free shipping from 100 € total value of goods

You can check all occurring shipping costs or if we even deliver for free right before sending your order!

 


International delivery

Here are the shipping costs as well as the amount threshold for your order. The threshold is referring to the total amount of your order, which enables free shipping.
 

Taxes and customs outside the EU:

For orders outside the EU there might be additional duties, taxes or charges needed to be paid by the customer. These don't have to be paid to the supplier, but to local authorities. Please check for any details with your local customs or tax authorities before ordering! But as a benefit you don't have to pay German taxes, this means you save up to 19%!
Due to the Brexit and the associated changes, there may be delays of several days in customs clearance on site for deliveries to the UK. This is not within our sphere of influence, so we ask for your understanding.
