We are proud to announce the release of Neptune 4.4.

This version features a new LTS Kernel 3.18.16 which delivers better and more modern hardware support. We also did the biggest update in the graphicsstack since Neptune 4.0 by upgrading to XServer 1.17 and Mesa 10.5.8. This brings in support for modern graphiccards and better 3D performance. Old chips like voodoo or sis however aren't supported anymore. We updated the Hplip driver to support newer hp printers.

We improved the user interface by introducing a new modern looking font aswell as bigger scrollbars.

Kdenlive now can stabilize videos using the vid.stab extension. Gimp now includes the GMic filters and plugins by default.

Neptune Installer is now able to handle UTF-8 chars in usernames and supports formatting partitions with btrfs-tools 3.17.
