In This Video We Are Looking At release of Feren OS Alpha 2, the second alpha release of Feren OS . This Alpha introduces a whole slew of changes from the current stable release of Feren OS, as well as introducing a ton of fixes and useful quality of life changes from the previous Alpha build of Feren OS .
Just like the Alpha before, this alpha represents thoroughly incomplete software — a lot is missing, and a lot could change out of nowhere — do not use this as a daily driver, but please do test it as a candidate for a daily driver that is not relied on.

Changes from Feren OS Alpha 1
“Set as Wallpaper” is now easier than ever
Forget dragging image files to your Desktop, or opening them in Configure Desktop & Wallpaper, to set them as your wallpaper — in Alpha 2, you can now simply right-click the image you want to set as your wallpaper, and select “Set as Wallpaper”.
More system components were added
This Alpha of Feren OS also introduces a whole slew of additional system components that were not present in Alpha 1, including support for drives encrypted through BitLocker, support for all the archive formats supported in , drivers for nomodeset boot, and more.
GRUB and systemd, now more vanilla and faster respectively
Alpha 2 debuts a revised GRUB configuration, now sporting an unchanged GRUB defaults file, as the customisations made to GRUB have been moved to .d config files, as well as pre-enabling os-prober to allow GRUB to continue providing boot options for other installed Operating Systems.
Additionally, Alpha 2 debuts new defaults for systemd, giving it a 32 second timer by default, unless programs override it for their tasks, which will now cut 58 seconds of waiting, each, off of most shutdown and startup tasks.
APT is now better able to clean up unused packages
APT has also seen a configuration change in Alpha 2, as it will now autoremove packages only installed, because X package Suggests it, once X package has been removed, making APT slightly better at cleaning up the remnants of a program that was installed.
Users are now added to more groups than before
Alpha 2 also introduces new configuration changes for adduser, the backend for user adding in Feren OS. As of this alpha, adding a user will now also add them to a ton of additional groups, giving them more of the privileges that are expected to be available in other Operating Systems, such as mounting drives.
Files now displays all the folders on your sidebar, again
The automated setup process in that gives you all your default home folder folders, such as Documents and Pictures, in the correct language has been entirely rewritten in Alpha 2, providing with it the readdition of all the folders in Files’s sidebar.
Files is back to its complete-sidebar self
Changing languages will now migrate folders if applicable
Serving as an additional bugfix from the same change as the change mentioned above, the new iteration of the automated setup process will now summon the XDG User Directories Migration Dialog when the language selected is changed.
If the user opts to migrate their home folders to their newly selected language the home folder locations in KDE Plasma, and KDE applications, will also now be migrated automatically too to prevent bugs and general confusion.
Feren OS’s default theme is now called Inspire throughout all of Feren OS, starting with Alpha 2, including colour schemes, Plasma styles, and application style, matching with the already renamed beforehand window decorations.
