rEFInd_GUI v3.4.4
Device-support release: the rEFInd install paths now put the touchscreen driver on the GPD WIN 5.
Touchscreen driver
- GPD WIN 5 (SMBIOS product
G1618-05) is now a touch device for all three rEFInd install paths (refind_install_Sourceforge.sh,refind_install_package_mgr.sh,windows/install_rEFInd.ps1): they download TouchI2cDxe v1.4.0, whose new profile for the WIN 5 (Novatek NVTK0603 HID-over-I2C panel on the AMD I2C1 controller) was contributed and confirmed working in rEFInd on real hardware (jlobue10/TouchI2cDxe#8). Tap to move the selection and launch entries in the rEFInd menu. - The gate is an exact DMI product-name match, like the Steam Deck entries; other devices are unaffected. As before, a failed download only skips the driver.
- Documentation: the ASUS Zenbook Pro 14 Duo (UX8402VV) is now recorded as confirmed on hardware (TouchI2cDxe v1.3.1) rather than "validation in progress".
Packaging / CI
- deb release workflow: the tag-verification step runs under bash. In v3.4.3 it failed on the container's dash shell (
set -o pipefail), which is why that release's .deb had to be attached by a manual re-run. All four package builds (Arch, deb, RPM, Windows) went green on the tag push for this release.
Notes
- Every artifact ships a matching
.sha256sidecar; verify before trusting a download, e.g.sha256sum -c refind-gui_3.4.4_amd64.deb.sha256. - The Windows installer (
rEFInd_GUI-3.4.4-setup.exe) is not yet Authenticode-signed (SignPath setup pending) — verify it with its.sha256sidecar. - Reminder: SteamOS is intentionally refused by this installer — the Steam Deck is served by the sibling SteamDeck_rEFInd project.
