The Compiz window manager with its accessibility module (full-screen zoom, change of screen brightness, etc.) for the visually impaired. MouseTweaks and mouse emulation with numeric keypad for people with physical disabilities. eBook-speaker for audio playback of digital books in ePub format. Daisy-player for reading audio books in Daisy format. Kiwix in accessibility mode to read Wikipedia offline. Ocrizer for scanning a document in OCR mode and opening the result in LibreOffice.

Linux Mint 22 Cinnamon

The Linux Mint team have announced the launch of Linux Mint 22. The new version will be supported through to 2029 and focused primarily on updating language and hardware support: "Linux Mint 22 ships with modern components and the new Ubuntu 24.04 package base. To guarantee better compatibility with modern hardware, the kernel is version 6.8 and Linux Mint 22.x point releases will follow the HWE series. The default sound server switched to PipeWire. The Software Sources received support for the new Debian DEB822 format. Themes were updated to support GTK4. JXL support was added to Pix and a new thumbnailer was implemented for it. All software using libsoup2 was migrated to libsoup3. HiDPI support improvements were made in the boot sequence, in Plymouth and Slick-Greeter. An updated package base doesn't just bring new technology, it can sometimes also threaten existing features. Thunderbird continues to be available in Linux Mint 22 as a native .deb package. Following the decision by Ubuntu to move it to Snap, Linux Mint is now responsible for packaging it. With GNOME 46, libgoa/libgoa-backend 3.50 moved to GTK4 and could no longer be used by GTK3 applications. This meant that Online Accounts support had to disappear from Cinnamon, Budgie and Unity. The XApp project implemented a standalone application called 'GNOME Online Accounts GTK'. Not only did this bring the feature back in these three desktop environments, it also made it possible for it to be used in MATE and Xfce."

Qubes OS 4.2.2

The Qubes OS team have announced a new update to the project's security-focused operating system. One of the significant changes in Qubes OS 4.2.2 is an adjustment to how files are transferreed between isolated envirnonments, called qubes. "Qubes 4.2.2 includes a fix for #8332: File-copy qrexec service is overly restrictive. As explained in the issue comments, we introduced a change in Qubes 4.2.0 that caused inter-qube file-copy/move actions to reject filenames containing, e.g., non-Latin characters and certain symbols. The rationale for this change was to mitigate the security risks associated with unusual unicode characters and invalid encoding in filenames, which some software might handle in an unsafe manner and which might cause confusion for users. Such a change represents a trade-off between security and usability. After the change went live, we received several user reports indicating more severe usability problems than we had anticipated. Moreover, these problems were prompting users to resort to dangerous workarounds (such as packing files into an archive format prior to copying) that carry far more risk than the original risk posed by the unrestricted filenames. In addition, we realized that this was a backward-incompatible change that should not have been introduced in a minor release in the first place. Therefore, we have decided, for the time being, to restore the original (pre-4.2) behavior by introducing a new allow-all-names argument for the qubes.Filecopy service. By default, qvm-copy and similar tools will use this less restrictive service (qubes.Filecopy +allow-all-names) whenever they detect any files that would be have been blocked by the more restrictive service (qubes.Filecopy +). If no such files are detected, they will use the more restrictive service."
