Wine 9.0 comes with a new WoW64 architecture that enables running Windows 32-bit applications on a 64-bit Unix installation. The Wayland graphics driver adds supports for multiple monitors and improved window management.
Kali Linux's last release for the year adds Vagrant offerings to Hyper-V, Raspberry Pi 5 support, an updated UI to GNOME 45, and various new network tools.
