DietPi 10.5 Enables KMS/DRM Graphics System by Default for Raspberry Pi SBCs

Coming almost a month after DietPi 10.4, the DietPi 10.5 release enables KMS (Kernel Mode Setting) and DRM (Direct Rendering Manager) by default for Raspberry Pi boards when installing a graphical app or desktop environment via DietPi-Software.

Linux Kernel 7.1 Officially Released, Here’s What’s New

Probably the biggest change of the Linux 7.1 kernel series is a new NTFS file system implementation, which has been in the works for the last 4 years, featuring full write support with delayed allocation, iomap, and folio integration to improve write performance, better stability, and a new suite of userspace utilities called ntfsprogs-plus.

Ubuntu Desktop 26.10 “Stonking Stingray” Daily Builds Now Available for Download

The Stonking Stingray development cycle has been nothing but strange until now. First, the daily builds for Ubuntu Desktop, which first appeared around mid-May, were only available for the 64-bit ARM (AArch64) architecture. Then, Canonical decided to release the first Snapshot without providing Ubuntu Desktop 64-bit images.

First Look at Audacity 4: A Beautiful and Modern Revamp of the Audio Editor

I just remembered that I’ve been using Audacity on and off for about 20 years now. It’s always been the go-to program whenever I needed to trim an audio file or glue two tracks into one, or just extract a sample from an audio track. For me, Audacity was highly effective and reliable for this specific use case.

LibrePlan 1.6.0 Released With Better Collaboration Tools and 15 New Languages

posted by Rianne Schestowitz on May 18, 2026

Quoting: LibrePlan 1.6.0 Released With Better Collaboration Tools and 15 New Languages —

If you have not heard of LibrePlan before, then you wouldn't be alone. When they sent us a press release, I was wondering what this project was for. Then I read up on it, and it turns out to be an open source, self-hosted, web-based project management tool that has been around since 2009.

It can handle project planning, resource allocation, time tracking, and progress reporting, and its target customers are organizations that want full control over their own infrastructure and data.

Now, they have introduced a new release that adds some useful features around collaboration, project tracking, and a pretty notable expansion of language support.
