# Release Notes for 2020.04 | ||
|
||
This release includes major changes compared previous Freedom Unleashed SDK and thus is **experimental** at this stage. Main changes include: | ||
|
||
- All layers (openembedded-core, meta-openembedded, meta-riscv) updated to their latest revisions | ||
|
||
- Kernel updated to v5.6.2 | ||
|
||
- GCC updated to 9.3.0 | ||
|
||
- Added back 3 packages removed in 2020.03.00 due to Python 3 migration (two Xfce4 packages and fio) | ||
|
||
- ATI drivers updated (for HD6450 and similar GPUs) | ||
|
||
- AMD drivers added (tested with RX550 and RX570, POLARIS GPUs) | ||
|
||
- Glamor (2D acceleration using GPU) enabled (tested with HD6450 and RX550, no artifacts) | ||
|
||
- Wayland distribution feature disabled as we use X11 | ||
|
||
- LLVM updated to 10.0.0 (final release, only used by Mesa for GPUs) | ||
|
||
- Mesa updated to 20.0.3 | ||
|
||
- Vulkan enabled for AMD GPUs (tested with RX550) | ||
|
||
- spidev driver enabled | ||
|
||
- Disk images no more include debug packages by default and thus there is less to download | ||
|
||
- Separate disk image with debug packages can be built by adding `-debug` prefix to the build target (e.g. `demo-coreip-cli-debug` or `demo-coreip-xfce4-debug`) | ||
|
||
- Notable new packages added: libgpiod, libgpiod-tools, libgpiod-dev, i2c-tools, spitools, glibc-utils, libgomp-dev. | ||
|
||
## Known Issues | ||
|
||
1. Avoid overclocking SoC using CPUFreq if you are using HiFive Unleashed Expansion Board from Microsemi as this will hang the board. Hard reset will be required. | ||
|
||
2. If Xfce4 desktop disk image is used with HiFive Unleashed Expansion Board and GPU then rebooting is required after the 1st boot. |
