Fastfetch, the popular command-line system information tool among users for displaying a sleek summary of system information in the terminal alongside an OS’s ASCII logo, has just rolled out version 2.66.
On the visual side, a key addition is the official logo for Azure Linux, Microsoft’s distribution for cloud and server workloads. Previous versions displayed a fallback logo, but this release now includes the correct one.
Flatcar Container Linux also gains its own built-in logo. The project is a minimal, container-focused operating system designed for running containerized workloads securely and reliably.
The logo collection has been further expanded to include new options for Chimera Linux, Parabola GNU/Linux-libre, postmarketOS, and Qubes OS. Plus, Fastfetch’s small Linux Mint logo has also been updated.
Beyond visual updates, Fastfetch 2.66 improves AMD graphics hardware detection on Linux. It resolves an issue that previously prevented accurate identification of AMD GPU names when driverSpecific detection mode was enabled.
Apple Silicon users running Asahi Linux benefit from improved GPU core reporting as Fastfetch now provides more accurate core counts on supported Apple hardware, correcting a previous detection error.
Compatibility with Windows Subsystem for Linux has been restored for WSL 2.9.3, and operating system detection now includes Astra Linux versions, providing more detailed information for systems running this Debian-based distro.
The new release also introduces detection for Proxmox Backup Server, which Fastfetch should now correctly recognize rather than reporting only its underlying Debian base.
Moreover, Fastfetch’s default output no longer displays the CPU package count. This information remains available and can be included using the {packages} placeholder in custom configurations.
Outside Linux, Fastfetch 2.66 improves PowerShell version detection on Windows and enhances Media module performance on macOS. The release also includes internal cleanups and optimizations.
For additional details, see the changelog. Fastfetch 2.66 is now available from the project’s GitHub releases page, with prebuilt packages for Linux, FreeBSD, DragonFly BSD, Haiku, macOS, and Windows.
