Posted December 27, 2024Dec 27 Debian's regular two-year release cycle ensures a steady stream of updates, with version 13 (“Trixie”) expected in 2025, following the 2023 release of “Bookworm.” Debian 13 will retain support for 32-bit processors but drop very old I386 CPUs in favor of i686 or newer. This shift reflects the aging of these processors, which date back over 25 years. Supporting modern hardware allows Debian to maintain its reputation for stability and reliability. As a foundational distribution, Debian's updates ripple across numerous derivatives, including Antix, MX Linux, and Tails, ensuring widespread impact in the Linux ecosystem.
