Installation instructions
macOS
Download sane-break-macos-x86_64.dmg
file if you are using Intel mac, or sane-break-macos-arm64
if you are using ARM chip. Open and install it. macOS 13 or newer are supported.
Windows
Download the sane-break-windows.zip
extract it. Put the .exe
executable anywhere you like. x86 version of Windows 10 or newer is supported. Older versions may be supported too.
Linux
If you are using X11, sane-break-x11.deb
is for you.
If you are using Ubuntu 24.10 (and above) or Debian Trixie (and above), you can install the .deb
package. For GNOME users, make sure to enable the GNOME shell extension with:
gnome-extensions enable sane-break@allanchain.github.io
The difference between Wayland Ubuntu Oracular build and Debian Trixie build is the layer shell support. If you are using a Debian-based distro and a Wayland compositor with layer shell protocol support (e.g. KDE Neon), you probably need the Debian Trixie build. Otherwise, the Ubuntu Oracular build is good to go.
