# QMK Breaking Changes - 2024 November 24 Changelog
|
||||
|
||||
## Notable Features
|
||||
|
||||
November 2024 brings a relatively lightweight QMK release. As with previous cycles, almost all PRs were related to cleanup or re-organization of aspects of QMK.
|
||||
|
||||
One notable item is the removal of `arm_atsam` -- this affects users with `massdrop/ctrl` or `massdrop/alt` keyboards. These have no current replacement, but support for an alternative to the `arm_atsam` backend is nearing completion. Unfortunately the alternative backend didn't make this quarter's list of merges, so there's a temporary removal of these boards. Users who need to build for these targets should stay on the `0.26.x` version of QMK until these boards have been restored.
|
||||
|
||||
## Changes Requiring User Action
|
||||
|
||||
### Updated Keyboard Codebases
|
||||
|
||||
One note with updated keyboard names -- historical keyboard names are still considered valid when using [External Userspace](../newbs_external_userspace) for builds. If you're already using External Userspace, you do not need to move your keymap inside your repository.
|
||||
|
||||
| Old Keyboard Name | New Keyboard Name |
|
||||
|-------------------|-------------------------|
|
||||
| saevus/cor | concreteflowers/cor |
|
||||
| saevus/cor_tkl | concreteflowers/cor_tkl |
|
||||
|
||||
## Deprecation Notices
|
||||
|
||||
In line with the [notice period](../support_deprecation_policy#how-much-advance-notice-will-be-given), deprecation notices for larger items are listed here.
|
||||
|
||||
### RGB Keycode Overhaul ([#23679](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/23679), [#24484](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/24484), [#24490](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/24490))
|
||||
|
||||
RGB keycodes have been reworked to allow for both rgblight and rgb_matrix to coexist for the handful of boards in the repo with both enabled. Previously, `RGB_xxx` style keycodes were available, but now for rgblight we have `UG_xxx` (underglow), and `RM_xxx` for rgb_matrix. Default keymaps have been updated to reflect whichever system the respective board enables.
|
||||
|
||||
Longer-term, `RGB_xxx` style keycodes will be removed, but for now they act as if they're `UG_xxx`, and `UG_xxx` keycodes act upon both rgblight and rgb_matrix simultaneously. Put simply, the existing `RGB_xxx` keycodes act as they always have, giving users time to transition across to the new keycodes instead.
|
||||
|
||||
### ADNS9800 and PMW33xx sensor firmware ROM removal ([#24428](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/24428))
|
||||
|
||||
Following on from the last Breaking Changes cycle, Binary blobs for optical sensors have been removed from the QMK codebase. Hooks allowing users to supply their own have been put in place; users wishing to source firmware blobs and integrate them into their keymap may do so. Doing so renders their firmware un-distributable due to licensing incompatibility with the GPL -- as such user firmware containing such blobs must not be distributed.
|
||||
|
||||
Please get in touch with the QMK team on Discord if your sensor is no longer functional.
