  • efaLive 2.10.4 released

    Created:

    efaLive 2.10.4 is released. The x86 image and the RaspberryPi image are now based on Debian 12 (Bookworm). The efa software is updated to version 2.3.3.

    I implemented support for encrypted backups. The backup is encrypted with a password and can be restored with the same password. The look and feel has changed a bit. The mouse pointer is now bigger and the font rendering is improved, which is mainly a preparation for one of the upcoming efa releases.

  • Some experiments with Rust on ESP32

    Created:

    After I have done some Rust development for web application, Lambdas, etc. I have started to experiment with Rust on the ESP32. The ESP32 is a low-cost microcontroller. The Rust support by Espressif, the company behind ESP32, is really great. So it’s a nice way to start with Rust on embedded devices. If you want to learn more about this project, you can read my Rust ESP32 page.

    efaLive 2.8.5 is now ready for download. This update brings the latest version of the efa Software as well as the latest stable Debian release, codename ‘bullseye’

    The documentation das been removed from the CD image, because it always was some pain to update it. I always had to re-generate the CD image.

    Please note that the key for the efaLive Debian archive has changed, so you have to update it in older versions of efaLive to be able to install new packages.
