Asahi Linux released a progress report coinciding with Linux 7.0 kernel support, automating its previously manual installer release process that had gone unmaintained for nearly two years. New features include UEFI-only installation support, ambient light sensor (ALS) calibration improvements, and power management updates for Pro/Max/Ultra SoCs. The project shifted to GitHub Actions-based builds and simplified distribution maintainer workflows.
