Valve: Introducing SteamOS "brewmaster"
Valve: Introducing SteamOS "brewmaster"
Valve has announced the first preview release of its forthcoming
SteamOS update. The new release is based on Debian 8.1 with long-term
support kernel 3.18; there are
downloadable builds linked to in the announcement for both UEFI and
legacy BIOS systems. There appear to be few user-visible differences
between the new release and the current SteamOS so far,
though; the announcement notes: "Although there are a lot of
changes under the covers, the overall functionality and experience of
brewmaster is the same as alchemist
".
