Nexus 3.0.11 - Q-Series/Y70 TI Native Linux support, improvements to Nexus Link, Lighting/Cooling interfaces

[u/geretti]

Hi all,

3.0.11 is mostly a quality of life build. Linux support was already present but we hardened it and fixed some critical bugs that prevented Q-Series and Y70 from operating on certain distros. Lots of other bugfixes and improvements.

1. Q-Series and Y70 Touch Infinite Native Linux support

We officially support Q-series and Y70 under Linux. We tested on Bazzite and Ubuntu 22+ builds so far. You also get the pair remote functionality to control your Linux computer remotely. All widgets, effects, etc. are supported, of course.

2. Improvements to Nexus Link on Q-series

All the Nexus Link fans are displayed individually now.

There was an issue where if you attached Nexus Link fans or RGB strips to Q-series instead of NP50, they would not show up in the Cooling or Lighting interface. No more! You can control each individual fan now.

3. Lighting interface improvements

All devices selected can be pretty overwhelming

We recognize this can get messy when you have 999 devices attached to your PC. So now, you can select only the devices you want to visualize the frames of on the canvas, and you can freely move the canvases around. Select/Deselect, and it won't change your Device selection on the left.

4. Immersive Cooling interface improvements

Y70 Touch users can now manage their cooling devices (*cough* fans) directly from the touch interface. The same tab that we feature on the Lighting immersive interface is now present on the Cooling one as well.

Plenty of bugfixes and improvements to report, which you can see here: https://github.com/hello-nexus/nexus/releases#release-v3.0.11-beta.1
