Even if the version number makes it look like a small point release to last month’s Nitrux 2.9 release, Nitrux 2.9.1 get a major kernel bump from Linux 6.3, which reached end of life on July 11th, 2023, to the latest Linux 6.4 kernel series. Nitrux 2.9.1 comes with a Liquorix-flavored Linux kernel 6.4.8.
On top of that, this release ships with the very latest KDE software, including the KDE Plasma 5.27.7 LTS desktop environment, as well as KDE Frameworks 5.108 and KDE Gear 23.04.3 software suites, all built against the Qt 5.15.5 LTS open-source application framework.

> Although this is just a point release, it shifts to the Liquorix Linux kernel, version 6.4.8, the latest KDE software (including KDE Frameworks 5.108 and KDE Gear 23.04.3), and is built against Qt 5.15.5.
> You’ll also find a few new bits, such as the Kernel Boot tool that simplifies the process of booting different kernels. Another addition is the Hardware Probe Tool, which makes hardware detection easier and more reliable. As well, fuse-overlayfs has been added for rootless containers. Finally, you’ll enjoy built-in support for AppImages and a suite of convergent applications (called Maui Apps), such as Index, Nota, Station, VVave, Pix, Clip, Buho, and Shelf.
