What's new Features

  • Mark the GNOME extension as compatible with GNOME 50 (9594d73) Installation instructions: macOS Download sane-break-macos-x86_64.dmg file if you are using Intel mac, or sane-break-macos-arm64.dmg if you are using ARM chip. Open and install it. macOS 13 or newer are supported. Windows x86 version of Windows 10 or newer is supported. Older versions may be supported too.
  • Portable version: Download the sane-break-windows.zip extract it. Put the .exe executable anywhere you like.
  • Installer verions: Download the sane-break-windows.exe and run it. Linux For Debian-based distributions, there is a notoriously large number of derivatives, and many of them ship old versions of Qt and do not include the latest layer-shell-qt. It is impractical to create .deb packages for all of them, so we only provide support for Debian Bookworm and Trixie. (Unfortunately, Ubuntu LTS ships with a very old version of Qt and lacks layer-shell-qt.) The difference between Bookworm build and Trixie build is the layer shell support. If you are using a Debian-based distro and a Wayland compositor with layer shell protocol support (e.g. KDE Neon), you probably need the Debian Trixie build. Otherwise, the Bookworm build is good to go. For GNOME users, make sure to enable the GNOME shell extension with: gnome-extensions enable sane-break@allanchain.github.io AppImage version is experimental. It may or may not work on your machine.
