rAIdio.bot v0.1.19 (beta)
rAIdio.bot v0.1.19
What's new
- Security & dependency maintenance. Refreshed several bundled libraries to their latest patched releases and cleared newly-published advisories. No functional or behavioural changes — this is a hardening/upkeep release. If 0.1.18 works for you, 0.1.19 behaves identically, just on current dependencies.
🐧 Linux — early beta
This is an early beta of the Linux build. It stays on the beta channel through a few more iterations until we're happy with it — expect rough edges. Windows remains the primary, stable platform. Your detailed reports (below) are what move Linux toward release quality — thank you.
System requirements
OS: 64-bit Linux with glibc 2.35 or newer — Ubuntu 22.04+, Debian 12+, Fedora 36+, or a recent Arch / Pop!_OS. Verified on Ubuntu 24.04 (our reference target); wider distros are expected to work via the AppImage and are exactly what we're asking testers to confirm.
GPU: an NVIDIA (CUDA) GPU with a driver new enough for CUDA 12.8 (≈ 570 or later). 16 GB VRAM recommended, 12 GB minimum; the optional XL model needs 24 GB. AMD/Intel GPUs and the open nouveau driver are not supported — the AI backend is CUDA-only.
Also needed:
- A desktop session (X11 or Wayland).
- PipeWire or PulseAudio for audio out (standard on any desktop).
- Internet on first run to download the AI backend + models (~9 GB, one-time) — runs offline afterward.
- A valid RB1- serial to activate.
Install
Use whichever fits your distro, and if you can, try both:
Debian / Ubuntu — .deb (the confirmed-working path):
sudo apt install ./rAIdio.bot_0.1.19_amd64.debAny modern 64-bit Linux — AppImage (newer; please also test):
chmod +x rAIdio.bot_0.1.19_amd64.AppImage
./rAIdio.bot_0.1.19_amd64.AppImageThe AppImage bundles its own dependencies, so it should run on most modern distributions. If it launches blank or won't play audio, please report it and fall back to the .deb.
- If the AppImage won't start at all, your distro may need FUSE —
sudo apt install libfuse2(Debian/Ubuntu), or run it with./rAIdio.bot_0.1.19_amd64.AppImage --appimage-extract-and-run.
(Each artifact ships with a matching .minisig minisign signature — optional to verify.)
First run
- Launch it and enter the RB1- serial you were given → it activates and locks to this machine.
- First-run setup downloads the AI backend + models (a few GB, one-time — let it finish).
- You're in.
What to test
- App launches and the UI renders (not a blank window).
- License activation with your serial succeeds.
- First-run model/backend download completes (no freeze at 100%).
- Generate a track — Text-to-Audio — end to end.
- Waveform draws, and playback works (audio actually comes out).
- The Mixer and Edit panels behave.
- Export a track (it should produce a signed / C2PA file).
Your report — please include
- Distro + version (e.g. Ubuntu 24.04, Fedora 40, Arch) and GPU (e.g. RTX 4070).
- Which format you used (
.debor AppImage). - The build id in the lower-right corner (should read
v0.1.19-…) — quote it. - What worked, what didn't, and any exact error text.
- If something broke, attach the logs:
~/.local/share/rAIdio.bot/raidio.log~/.local/share/rAIdio.bot/comfyui.log
Thanks for testing on the beta channel.
