Given the recent Linux 7.3 upstream kernel release, the Asahi Linux project published a new status report to outline recent code they have upstreamed to the mainline kernel as well as other efforts taking shape in their downstream codebase…
Lennart Poettering, Michael Vogt, and Joaquim Rocha have put together a detailed overview of what the Amutable Operating System (AOS) and associated infrastructure will look like. The image-based OS approach enables us to enforce some very strict but powerful security properties, which elevate the security posture of the system substantially above traditional Linux systems. Specifically, let's…
System76 previews COSMIC Theme Constellations, an upcoming feature offering complete desktop themes with matching wallpapers, icons, fonts, and colors.
systemd developers explain why Rust is welcome in standalone components but cannot yet be used in core shared libraries.
Crowd Supply has launched a campaign for LocalDot, an open-hardware board developed by AAElectronics that converts third-generation Amazon Echo Dots into Home Assistant voice devices. The 83 × 37mm PCB uses an ESP32-S3 and ESP32-P4 for connectivity and audio processing while retaining the original microphones, speaker, buttons, and LEDs.

SparkFun today launched two ESP32-P4-based IoT RedBoards, offering either dual-band Wi-Fi 6 through an ESP32-C5 companion or wired Ethernet with Power over Ethernet. Both boards feature dual-core RISC-V processing, 32MB PSRAM, 16MB flash, MIPI camera and display connectors, and Arduino-style expansion headers for embedded and HMI applications. The boards use the ESP32-P4NRW32X, which integrates…

What is Agama's SSH Injection Advantage: By injecting public key into Agama during the network deployment phase, the very first boot of the newly installed operating system will have the OpenSSH daemon (sshd) active and your authorized keys populated.This gives you a guaranteed SSH hook into the target host. You don't have to look at the unreadable HDMI screen to execute the configuration script below you can run it smoothly from a remote machine, cleanly stripping away the problematic SDDM prompt and tailoring the Wayland desktop profile securely.
An interesting technical detail I noticed today from the latest AMD Linux activity is that Zen 6 processors apparently are featuring a RISC-V based Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) where in the past it was an ARM-based core…
KDE's Ghostty-powered Kwi terminal prepares for version 0.1 with improved rendering, tab management, search, and keyboard shortcuts.
The release also adds docked windows, three new cursor trail shaders, and touchscreen support on Wayland.
We recently announced the launch of Zephyr 26.04 LTS, bringing up to 15 years of security maintenance per LTS and enterprise lifecycle management to microcontroller-grade devices. While central high-performance computer ECUs capture most of the industry spotlight in software-defined vehicle (SDV) architectures, the operational reality of modern vehicles is far more distributed. Under the chassis…
A shared cloud initiative aims to keep school data in Germany while teaching digital skills — not dependence on individual technology providers.
