Some GambOS software has been updated.
The regular apt-get update and apt-get upgrade will get you the newer version.

And there is some other news guide updates.


All this information can be found on our website.

GambOS Background guide had another update. This time a redo of screenshots because changes made to GambOS Leaning Center because of the new forum and thus illustartions not matching current new version.
GambOS Leaning Center 1.0.2 had been released along side above guide.

If you run GambOS or have added GambOS repository top your sources and have an installed GambOS Learning Center, just run apt-get update and apt-get upgrade (with elevated rights) to get newest application versions.

Today GambOS patch 02 was released. It will apply all that is in patch 01 and will update you Gambas 3.19.6+bpo to include the latest backport done.
If you apply this patch there is no need to apply patch 01.

Enjoy.. 
 

GambOS Book 1 updated to include the newest features of GambOs Software Center, that has been updated as well.

Enjoy…

In the background some upcominhg software updates are pending, currently being tested by the contributor team.
They are all about some online reorganisations in regards to guide file downloads, guide installing, version update checking.
In short all got a bit more streamlined and better organized.

Once these go public, the contributor testing iso for GambOS build 26 will be created for the contributors to test (very small team, help welcomed)
At the same day, I suspect, a GambOS build 26 image for Raspberry Pi Model 4B will become available for the contributor team (we have no Pi testers yet, so feel free to join)

Depending on the returned reports of the contributor team, I hope to, soon after release GambOS build 26 in both iso (for amd64 and VM's) and image (for Raspberry Pi Model 4B advised 8GB edition).

Meanwile Gambas Book 2 is being written, instructions and code tested, typo's corrected…
Gambas Book 1 is being proofread and corrections returned added..

If you check the news page (that doesn't include all GambOS software updates), you can see that there is continueous progress being made on improving the existing and creating the new.

If you want early access or are the kind of person who could spend some time helping out, please, join the team, we could use the help.
You can always send me a private topic, if so desired 
 

GambOS build 26 images for Raspberry Pi are in testing.
A new build 26 iso is in the making to be on par with the Pi images.

The iso will not need much testing as it will only have a few packages added to the default installed.
The EFI boot and all other has already been tested and approved.

A new release is on the horizon with a new greeter for GambOS
