Release v2025.05.14

What’s New in This Update

This release marks our full transition from basic echo/read menus to a comprehensive Whiptail-based interface, delivering a far more cohesive, interactive, and professional user experience:

  • Full Whiptail UI Overhaul
    – All menus, prompts, and dialogs now use whiptail (dynamic sizing, backtitles, gauges, scrollboxes).
    – Consistent English labels and clear, user-friendly wording throughout.

  • Loading Banner & Spinner
    – Eye-catching ASCII banner on startup, followed by a polished spinner gauge for dependency checks and installs.

  • Driverctl Passthrough Method
    – New “Driverctl” option in the GPU Passthrough menu for per-device persistent overrides via driverctl set-override … vfio-pci.

  • Advanced Kernel Tweaks Submenu
    – Whiptail submenu to append kernel flags:

    • pcie_acs_override=downstream,multifunction [EXPERIMENTAL]
    • video=efifb:off
      – Includes explicit warning dialogs about potential risks.

  • State File Refactor
    – Centralized flags (INITIALIZED, PASSTHROUGH_CONFIGURED, IOMMU_ENABLED, KERNEL_CONFIG_APPLIED) in script_state.txt.
    – Helper functions load_state / save_state manage persistence.

  • Sources List & Dependency Management
    – Whiptail-driven “Install Dependencies” branch: backup/restore/modify /etc/apt/sources.list, install driverctl.

  • Robust Validation & Error Handling
    – Fixed sed regex errors (escaped parentheses).
    – Strict PCI-ID format checking (dddd:dd:dd.d).
    – “No GPU found” and “No overrides found” show friendly Whiptail alerts.

  • Logging & Polish
    – Detailed timestamped logs in /var/log/pecu.log.
    – All messages fully in English, no mixed icons or emojis.
