DragonFly BSD 4.6.0 appears to be a major release that ends the development of the 4.4 series of the acclaimed BSD distribution and promises to introduce lots of goodies to users of this computer OS. Prominent features include initial UEFI support, in-house built support for NVMe SSD devices, as well as SMP and networking improvements. Also new in today’s DragonFly BSD 4.6 release is better support for the latest graphics cards, as the development team managed to add more updates to accelerated video for AMD Radeon and Intel users.
