Genode OS Aiming For Multi-Monitor & Suspend/Resume Support This Year

The developers behind the Genode open-source operating system framework have shared their 2024 road-map of new features they hope to accomplish this calendar year.

For the February release of Genode OS 24.02 they plan to deliver early bits for supporting suspend-resume awareness, enhancing the audio code, PinePhone support for sending/receiving SMS messages, and more.

With Genode OS 24.05 and their general purpose Sculpt OS release in May they are hoping for suspend/resume support, on-target debugging, Intel Alder Lake graphics support, and other driver improvements.

By August with Sculpt OS they are hoping for user profiles and a low-complexity custom file manager. By late in the summer they are also hoping Genode will be ready with multi-monitor support, mouse grabbing, user-friendly bootstrapping of Linux VMs on ARM, and other features.

For rounding out the year, Genode OS is hoping for a pluggable USB-host driver, dynamic VFS configuration, and other features while Sculpt OS will hopefully be ready with multi-monitor window management.
