The small community of Reparto La Virgen Nueva lies at kilometer 111 on the León-Chinandega highway in Nicaragua. Its inhabitants, mostly agricultural and domestic workers, face limited mobile Internet access, characterized by restrictive data plans and poor coverage. There’s no fiber Internet option and it’s a 20-kilometer commute to León by bus to access the nearest computer and Internet facilities.
The Interstate 75 W is a driver board designed for HUB75-style LED matrices and is powered by the RP2350 microcontroller. This board connects directly to HUB75 panels, offering a straightforward solution for creating LED displays for applications such as signage, data visualization, or interactive projects.
Crowd Supply recently featured Polverine, a mikroBUS-compatible environmental sensing board for real-time air quality monitoring. It detects pollution, gas leaks, and supports ventilation control. Its compact, low-power design makes it suitable for portable and wearable applications, with Bosch Sensortec’s BMV080 PM2.5 and BME690 gas sensors providing data over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth via the ESP32-S3-MINI-1 microcontroller.
The Adafruit CLUE is a development board with a built-in display, multiple sensors, and Bluetooth Low Energy connectivity. It follows the form factor of the BBC micro:bit while incorporating additional processing power and expanded functionality. The board is designed for applications involving data visualization, sensor-based measurements, and wireless communication.
The monthly Nitrux release cycle continues and Nitrux 3.9 is here with Linux 6.12 LTS as the default kernel and better support for NVIDIA GPU users by updating the graphics driver to the upcoming NVIDIA 570 series, which is currently available as a beta version, and updated NVIDIA OpenRC services to use a PID file when running the service for the nvidia-powerd daemon.
Coming more than three months after ParrotOS 6.2, the ParrotOS 6.3 release is powered by Linux kernel 6.11 for the PC editions and Linux kernel 6.6 LTS for the Raspberry Pi edition. Both kernels have been bumped to newer versions to provide users with the best possible hardware support.
Coming almost a year after GParted 1.6, the GParted 1.7 release is here to introduce experimental support for the Bcachefs file system (for single device file systems only), support for recognizing NBDs (Network Block Devices), and a new mechanism that prevents GParted probe from starting LVM volume groups.
Some of the highlights of the NVIDIA 570 graphics driver series include VRR (variable refresh rate) support on multi-monitor setups, support for querying Dynamic Boost status, 32-bit compatibility support for the NVIDIA GBM backend, and a new conceal_vrr_caps kernel module parameter to the nvidia-modeset kernel module.
GCompris 25.0 introduces five new activities including “Sketch”, an activity for drawing freely with multiple tools to let children explore their creativity, and “Calculate with ten’s complement”, the continuation of the existing ten’s complement activities to help the children to swap the numbers to easily compute a sum.
