Nitrocid 0.1.1 is no longer supported

We are announcing that the end of support for the first minor release after the 0.1.0 version, the 0.1.1 version that was released on July 23rd, 2024, has officially commenced as of today. It added new features, such as The Nitrocid Homepage, while improving existing features to make them more reliable.

The final mod API version for this version series was v3.0.26.60, and the final version of this release series was v0.1.1.36. Starting from today, we will no longer:

  • provide further new versions under that version series
  • provide support for users that continue to use this version series
  • provide any security and features improvements across different components

In addition to that, the warning message will be displayed upon trying to start this version series up, reminding you of this series’ support. In Debian builds, you’ll be notified in the command line that you’re installing the version series that is no longer supported.

In order to continue getting new features and security updates, and to continue receiving support from us, please either use the latest LTS version, which is v0.1.0.x, or use the latest short-term supported version, such as v0.1.2.x.

Old Nitrocid PPA EOL Reminder

The old Nitrocid PPA (kernel-sim) has been officially marked as deprecated as of the 0.1.2.0 release on February 27th, 2025. The reason was that because we wanted to get rid of a PPA that hosted very old versions of Nitrocid KS, such as 0.0.15.8 for Groovy Gorilla uploaded on April 14th, 2021, and because the most recent versions that were released had libc6 issues on Jammy Jellyfish and older.

We have only added the deprecation notice to the old PPA mentioned above, but we’ve recently updated the notice. We will permanently disable the kernel-sim PPA starting July 1st, 2025, as we get closer to the second half of the year.

To disable the kernel-sim PPA and to enable the newer Nitrocid PPA, nitrocid, follow these steps:

  1. Uninstalling all Nitrocid-related packages from the old PPA
    1. Open the terminal emulator
    2. Run sudo apt purge kernel-simulator
  2. Replacing the kernel-sim PPA with the nitrocid PPA
    1. Run sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:eofla/kernel-sim
    2. Run sudo add-apt-repository ppa:eofla/nitrocid
  3. Installing the newer Nitrocid packages
    1. Execute sudo apt update
    2. Follow the instructions by running sudo apt install nitrocid

Once you follow the above steps, you’re now using the new nitrocid PPA instead of the older one. If you failed to remove the kernel-sim PPA from your system before the abovementioned deadline, the apt update command will fail with error messages about said PPA.

Nitrocid 0.1.1 EOL Reminder

We are approaching the end of support for the first minor release after the 0.1.0 version, the 0.1.1 version that was released on July 23rd, 2024. It added new features, such as The Nitrocid Homepage, while improving existing features to make them more reliable.

The final mod API version for this version series is v3.0.26.60, and the final version of this release series is v0.1.1.36 that was released today to fix some small bugs.

The end of support date was assigned as April 23rd, 2025. This means that, starting from that day, we will no longer:

  • provide further new versions under that version series
  • provide support for users that continue to use this version series
  • provide any security and features improvements across different components

In addition to that, the warning message will be displayed upon trying to start this version series up, reminding you of this series’ support. In Debian builds, you’ll be notified in the command line that you’re installing the version series that is no longer supported.

In order to continue getting new features and security updates, and to continue receiving support from us, please either use the latest LTS version, which is v0.1.0.x, or use the latest short-term supported version, such as v0.1.2.x.

In the upcoming service pack for v0.1.0.x, we’ll push all v0.1.1.x features to the long-term version series to make sure that further bugs in those features get fixed across releases.

Nitrocid 0.1.2 will need a working sound driver for a new feature

We are working towards the next version of Nitrocid KS that makes your experience more intuitive than before. By introducing new features and performing general improvements to the core part of the kernel, we are committed to providing the highest quality products and libraries that interconnect with each other to make sure that we spot bugs that may have been missed, along with extensive testing.

Nitrocid 0.1.2 is planned to be released on February 27th, 2025, and we are dying to release it with the highest quality possible after thorough examination of the release. However, we need to give you an advance note in case you’re planning for the upgrade.

Starting from Nitrocid 0.1.2, the application requires that you have an audio card installed on your computer if you want to use the audio cues feature. This is because BassBoom is used by both Nitrocid and Terminaux for the audio cues feature that will make it to this version of Nitrocid. The feature is enabled by default, so make sure that you have it enabled.

In case Nitrocid KS can’t play any audio cues for whatever reason, the whole sound support will turn off to prevent further errors, and this will affect only that part of the kernel settings. You can use the debugging feature to find out why, should there be any errors on the audio cues feature.

This is just an advance notice to refine your upgrade plans, especially when creating mods for API v3.1.
