EndeavourOS 2026.01.12 “Ganymede Neo” is out as the first update of the year to this Arch Linux based distribution.
Endeavour OS has been back on track after their ISO refresh hiatus last year and got back into the swing of things in November. With today’s ISO release they are now powered by the Linux 6.18.4 LTS kernel while also pulling in the Mesa 25.3.3 graphics drivers, X.Org Server 21.1.21, Firefox 146, the Calamares 26.0.1.1.5 installer, and various other package updates.
Following the upstream NVIDIA graphics driver changes in Arch Linux with the NVIDIA R590 series dropping pre-Turing GPU support, Endeavour OS is also now using the NVIDIA Open kernel modules and in turn only supporting GTX 1600 / RTX 20 Turing GPUs and newer.
