After adapting VisionFive 1, VisionFive 2, SG2042 and other development boards, the deepin RISC-V SIG has recently successfully adapted the deepin operating system on the LicheePi 4A development board! This achievement once again demonstrates deepin's breakthrough in promoting the development of the RISC-V ecosystem. LicheePi 4A: High Performance Development Board with Multi-Core Heterogeneity It is reported that LicheePi 4A is a Linux development board designed by Sipeed using TH1520 chip as the main control core, which is the strongest RISC-V SBC up to now (2023Q2). LicheePi 4A contains 4 x Gentech C910 CPU cores, onboard maximum 16GB 64bit LPDDR4X, 128GB ...Read more
deepin V23 successfully adapted to WSL, what did we do?
In the released deepin V23 beta,deepin has officially adapted WSL! WSL stands for Windows Subsystem for Linux, which is a technology that allows users to run Linux on Windows. WSL enables you to freely switch or integrate between Windows and Linux, develop or test Linux-related projects using open source tools and environments. And at the same time enjoy Windows' support and performance optimisation of the hardware support and performance optimisation, run Linux applications and experience various Linux distributions. A new feature from Microsoft, WSLg lets users run Linux GUI applications in WSL2 and seamlessly integrates into the Windows desktop.WSLg includes ...Read more
deepin adapts to Apple M1, what have we experienced? (Part 2)
In the previous article, we introduced the selection and introduction of the deepin adaptation M1 solution, so that everyone can understand some of our ideas before adaptation. In this article, we mainly let everyone understand the problems we encountered during the adaptation process and how we solved them. Three stages of adaptation After our exploration and practice, the process of deepin adapting to M1 is roughly divided into the following three stages: The first stage: the basic environment of deepin must be started on the M1, which is the smallest system without a desktop. In this way, the correctness of the ...Read more
deepin successfully adapts to Apple M1(Part 1)
We have exciting news to share: In the recently released deepin V23 beta version, the deepin operating system is officially compatible with Apple Mac mini M1! The Mac mini M1 is a mini desktop computer chip released by Apple in November 2020. It features an 8-core M1 processor with a maximum clock speed of 3.2GHz, two Thunderbolt ports, two USB 3.0 Type A ports, HDMI 2.0, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. As it shares the same processor as the Macbook Air M1 and Macbook Pro M1, this adaptation also lays the foundation for future porting work on these two machines. ...Read more
RISC-V new progress! deepin successfully adapted to VisionFive 2
The RISC-V instruction set is an open instruction set architecture (ISA) based on the principle of reduced instruction set computing (RISC), and RISC-V is a new instruction established on the basis of the continuous development and maturity of the instruction set. The RISC-V instruction set is completely open source, simple in design, has a modular design, a complete tool chain, easy to transplant Unix systems, and a large number of open source implementations and tape-out cases. Recently, the official RISC-V SIG team of deepin successfully adapted the deepin operating system on the VisionFive 2 development board, and the available image ...Read more
