The Raspberry Pi Foundation released today a new build of its Debian-based Raspbian operating system for Raspberry Pi single-board computer with dozens of improvements, updated components, and other enhancements.

Probably the most important feature of the new Raspbian release, which is powered by the Linux 4.9.80 LTS kernel, is support for the recently launched Raspberry Pi 3 B+ single-board computer that Raspberry Pi Foundation unveiled this morning in celebration of the Pi Day.

Another interesting change of this new Raspbian snapshot is the implementation of support for different screen sizes and resolutions into the Xfce-based PIXEL desktop environment. This feature offers multiple present options, which can be set through the Appearance Settings panel and the PIXEL doubling option in Raspberry Pi Configuration.
