Raspbian 12 Bookworm and 11 Bullseye for Libre Computer Boards

For me it’s lack of information that’s the most frustrating.

I’ve been watching these forums for a while and Visible activity by Libre Computer was way down in 2024 compared to previous years. There were fewer software releases and official posts on this forum were much less frequent.

I’ve noticed that most posts by customers looking for help this past year go unanswered for weeks or months if they get answered at all. It makes me wonder what’s happening at Libre.

Raspberry Pi keeps changing their imaging tool behavior in an inconsistent manner. We’re tired of their half-baked flashing tool. Use dd or any other tool. We will no longer support crap software.

Use Debian with Gnome. The remote desktop support is based on XDP and works great and fast.

  1. Enable autologin
  2. Enable remote login
  3. Use the “Passwords and Keys” app, right click on Login, and change the password to none by leaving the password field empty on the prompt.
  4. Change the remote login password
  5. Connect via RDP from another computer

This forum is maintained on a best effort basis. Commercial support is not free especially for issues that were already answered repeatedly and can be searched for.

Reality is last update of images was well over a year ago - “We will no longer support crap software” - Unfortunately given the circumstances of lack of support generally - I’m not sure anyone will be too concerned by this !

Debian 12 was released 1.5 years ago. We will update the images with Debian 13. Raspbian 12 was released 1.5 years ago as well since it’s based on Debian. When Raspbian 13 comes out, we will release that.

October 2024 ??

The new images are expected to land on the second week of October due to a lot of updates throughout the stack.

On a positive note - at least we have a response now - Thx !
