UBports releases Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.0 with new features, fresh logos, and support for additional mobile devices.

Impact? Nope, don't worry, be happy, says Linux veteranOpinion There has been considerable worry about the impact of the European Union's Cyber Resilience Act on open source programmers. Linux stable kernel maintainer Greg Kroah-Hartman says, however, that there won't be much of an impact at all.…

While IEEE-1394 Firewire hardware in the wild is increasingly rare, modern Linux IEEE-1394 subsystem maintainer Takashi Sakamoto has committed to maintaining Firewire support until 2029. With the in-development Linux 6.18 kernel there are more incremental improvements to this code...

Open source database adds multi-tenant clustering, safer shutdowns, and eyes life beyond cachingOpen source key-value database Valkey is set for its ninth iteration next month, promising improved resource optimization and availability.…

Following AMD announcing the end of the AMDVLK Vulkan driver development in favor of focusing on the Mesa RADV driver for Linux systems, Red Hat engineer David Airlie who was one of the co-lead developers of the RADV driver shared some interesting insight on NVK as the open-source NVIDIA Vulkan driver being developed within Mesa...

Promises to get it right this coming weekendVMware has bungled a portal upgrade project that aims to give its customers a superior experience when managing their clouds.…

The Error Detection And Correction "EDAC" subsystem continues seeing a lot of new hardware support and code churn across AMD, Intel, and Arm hardware platforms for the Linux kernel. With Linux 6.18 there are several notable additions...

Don't tell Elon, he'd have Tesla's Robotaxis going ludicrous speedPolice in a Silicon Valley suburb were flummoxed last weekend after pulling over a self-driving Waymo robo-taxi for making an illegal turn, then finding no driver they could issue with a ticket.…

With Linux 6.17 was the decision by Linus Torvalds to mark Bcachefs as "externally maintained" and not accept any new Bcachefs code into the mainline kernel but keeping the existing code within the tree. That was useful for those relying on Bcachefs to still boot a mainline kernel at least. Now for Linux 6.18, the Bcachefs code was removed from the mainline kernel...

The Terminal may look intimidating, but with these Bash tips and tricks, you'll soon be working faster, smarter, and with more confidence.

Building off yesterday's release of Linux 6.17, the GNU Linux-libre 6.17-gnu kernel is now available for this downstream kernel variant that strips away support for loading non-free microcode and other elements not aligned with the Free Software Foundation principles. This ultimately ends up limiting the hardware support available with most of today's modern hardware requiring microcode/firmware but alas here is the latest release with a fresh round of de-blobbing...

OpenTofu nightly builds add Ephemeral and Write-Only features, arriving soon in 1.11 for better secret and state management.

Back during the Linux 6.17 merge window the RISC-V changes were rejected as "garbage" for being submitted too late in the merge window and with some code choices that upset Linus Torvalds. With lessons learned, the RISC-V changes for Linux 6.18 were submitted today during the first official day of this new kernel cycle...

Ask Brave debuts in Brave Browser, merging AI chat with traditional search to deliver faster, grounded answers with context.

Earlier this year NVIDIA announced Newton as an open-source physics engine focused on robotic simulations. This physics engine was developed by NVIDIA in cooperation with Google DeepMind and Disney Research. Today it's been contributed to the Linux Foundation...
