COSMIC Epoch 1.11 Released with Wayland xdg-dialog-v1, Enhanced Multi-GPU Handling
System76 developers today released COSMIC Epoch 1.11, a new point release for their Rust-written open-source desktop environment. This update introduces Wayland xdg-dialog-v1 support, aiming to improve the consistency and behavior of dialog windows within the Wayland compositor. Additionally, COSMIC 1.11 brings better handling for multi-GPU and hybrid graphics systems, which is crucial for laptops and workstations with integrated and discrete GPUs. New options have been added to COSMIC Settings for controlling touchpad behavior, specifically allowing users to toggle touchpad tap and drag functionality. These changes contribute to a more refined user experience on Pop!_OS, for which COSMIC is primarily developed.
