This system is functionally identical to the MINIX Elite EU715-AI introduced in April, except that it features the Intel Core Ultra 5 Processor 125H, a 64-bit chip combining CPU cores, integrated Intel Arc graphics, and a Neural Processing Unit.
The August 2025 release of DietPi v9.16 introduces full support for Debian 13 “Trixie,” initial support for Debian 14 “Forky,” and a wide set of software and system enhancements. Released on August 23rd, this update also includes optimizations to DietPi tools, additional RISC-V support, and numerous bug fixes.
The main FPGA used on the board is the GW1N-UV1P5QN48XF from GOWIN’s LittleBee series. It features 1584 logic units, 96 kilobits of block SRAM, and 256 kilobits of on-chip flash memory. The device includes two PLLs and six I/O banks, offering a total of 125 general-purpose I/O pins.
The Karbon 521 supports Intel Core Ultra 5 and Ultra 7 processors (Meteor Lake, Series 1) with TDP ratings of 28 W. Graphics output is handled by Intel Arc, supporting up to four simultaneous displays via DisplayPort 2.1 and Thunderbolt 4.
AAEON has released the MIX-MTLD1, a Mini-ITX motherboard featuring Intel Core Ultra processors, Intel Arc graphics, and an on-chip AI Boost NPU. Built on Intel’s multi-pillar die architecture, the design combines CPU, GPU, and NPU resources to accelerate inference workloads and expand deployment potential across AI-driven and edge applications.
DXVK 2.7.1 is here almost two months after the major DXVK 2.7 release as a maintenance update that improves support for several video games, including Dead Space 2, DCS (Digital Combat Simulator) World, AquaNox 2: Revelation, Alone in the Dark, Comanche 4, Crysis 3, and Dungeon Siege 2.
LibreOffice 25.8.1 is here only 9 days after the release of LibreOffice 25.8 and it contains fixes for various bugs, crashes, and other issues reported by users. In particular, it fixes a crash related to the NotebookBar UI option and several bugs related to opening documents in the MS Office proprietary format.
Armbian 25.8 is here about three months after Armbian 25.5 and introduces support for the latest and greatest Linux 6.16 kernel series, as well as support for new ARM boards, including the Mekotronics R58 HD, NanoPi R3S LTS, Radxa Cubie A5E, Orange Pi 5 Pro, Banana Pi R4, CAINIAO CNIoT-CORE, and KickPi K2B.
Coming about five weeks after fwupd 2.0.13, the fwupd 2.0.14 release adds support for updating the firmware on more hardware, including the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 3P gaming headset, ILITEK touch controllers, Framework QMK devices, and Egis MoC devices.
