Endeavour OS “Galileo Neo” is out with new ISO spins to incorporate the Linux 6.7 kernel. This doesn’t affect existing Endeavour OS users who proactively update their packages but is intended for new users and those deploying new installations that may depend upon newer hardware support found in Linux 6.7, such as for Intel Meteor Lake systems.
There is the Linux 6.7.1 Arch kernel build found in the new ISO as well as the latest Calamares 23.11 series installer, Mozilla Firefox 122 as its browser, Mesa 23.3.3 open-source graphics drivers, X.Org Server 21.1.11, and the NVIDIA 545.29 proprietary driver is also available. There are also various bug fixes incorporated into these new ISOs.

Nice
EndeavourOS is by far my favorite distro I’ve ever used. I can’t fault it.
I was using it for around 6 months until recenly hopping to Fedora Onyx. EOS has honestly replaced vanilla Arch for me, it just does so much for you.
What does it have over base Arch?
It’s basically base Arch with a graphical installer and some reasonable (but optional) default packages.
