rAIdio.bot v0.1.20

What's new

  • Beta update detection fixed. On the beta channel, the in-app "Check for updates" could report "you're on the latest version" even when a newer beta was published. It now reliably detects the newest beta release. (Stable-channel update checking was unaffected.)
  • Carries the security & dependency updates from 0.1.19 (refreshed bundled libraries, cleared advisories) — no functional changes, hardening only.

🐧 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_0.1.20_amd64.deb

Any modern 64-bit Linux — AppImage (newer; please also test):

chmod +x rAIdio.bot_0.1.20_amd64.AppImage
./rAIdio.bot_0.1.20_amd64.AppImage

The 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_0.1.20_amd64.AppImage --appimage-extract-and-run.

(Each artifact ships with a matching .minisig minisign signature — optional to verify.)

First run

  1. Launch it and enter the RB1- serial you were given → it activates and locks to this machine.
  2. First-run setup downloads the AI backend + models (a few GB, one-time — let it finish).
  3. 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 (.deb or AppImage).
  • The build id in the lower-right corner (should read v0.1.20-…) — 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.
