More portability and battery life are among the primary requirements. Of course, no one wants to sacrifice power or speed, which is why more people are switching to Linux. Some do it to revive old hardware; others have tried and grown to love the open-source garden. The added security is also a great selling point during these times. Linux Mint has been time-tested and is the go-to recommendation for Ubuntu-based laptop distros. It runs on minimal resources and is exceptionally lightweight for its punch. We all have encountered distros requiring us to install essential tools later. Nobody has time for that. We have to be up and running as soon as possible. Mint eliminates this hassle as it ships with almost all essential tools. It is also easy on the eyes, does not deviate too much from the look and feel of the mainstream OS, and closely resembles layouts that you might already be used to if you’re new and switching to Linux. However, if you switched just to leverage the insane customizability options that Linux offers, or maybe you don’t like the stock look and want something more aesthetic, Mint is based on Ubuntu. Most desktop and window managers should work out of the box without a tonne of setup or tinkering. Mint also receives a huge thumbs-up for supporting Nvidia drivers. It’s great for machine learning developers, gamers, etc. Well, what if you don’t want to use Linux Mint? It is not the only Linux distro based on Ubuntu. That’s why we are here with some of the best and most well- known Linux distributions based on Ubuntu, offering an easy-to-use interface and flavor.

Collaboration - Arch-dev-public - lists.archlinux.org — We are excited to announce that Arch Linux is entering into a direct collaboration with Valve. Valve is generously providing backing for two critical projects that will have a huge impact on our distribution: a build service infrastructure and a secure signing enclave. By supporting work on a freelance basis for these topics, Valve enables us to work on them without being limited solely by the free time of our volunteers. This opportunity allows us to address some of the biggest outstanding challenges we have been facing for a while. The collaboration will speed-up the progress that would otherwise take much longer for us to achieve, and will ultimately unblock us from finally pursuing some of our planned endeavors. We are incredibly grateful for Valve to make this possible and for their explicit commitment to help and support Arch Linux. Read_on Also: * ⚓ Valve_(Steam)_begin_a_direct_collaboration_with_Arch_Linux_| GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ This is some pretty exciting news! The Arch Linux team have announced a new direct collaboration with Valve (Steam). Something that's not too surprising, since Valve do fund a lot of open source work, and SteamOS for Steam Deck is built directly on Arch Linux so working more closely together makes a lot of sense. * ⚓ Arch_Linux_Announces_Collaboration_With_Valve⠀⇛ In an exciting development for the Linux community, Arch Linux has announced a new partnership with Valve, the company behind the Steam gaming platform and Steam Deck.

Thanks to this extension, originally based on a couple of NVIDIA vendor extensions, it will be possible to prepare sequences of commands to run directly from the GPU, and executing those sequences directly without any data going through the CPU. Also, Proton now has a much-more official leg to stand on when it has to translate ExecuteIndirect from D3D12 to Vulkan while you run games such as Starfield. * ⚓ Carlos_Garcia_Campos:_Graphics_improvements_in_WebKitGTK_and_WPEWebKit 2.46⠀⇛ WebKitGTK and WPEWebKit recently released a new stable version 2.46. This version includes important changes in the graphics implementation. § Skia The most important change in 2.46 is the introduction of Skia to replace Cairo as the 2D graphics renderer. Skia supports rendering using the GPU, which is now the default, but we also use it for CPU rendering using the same threaded rendering model we had with Cairo. The architecture hasn’t changed much for GPU rendering: we use the same tiled rendering approach, but buffers for dirty regions are rendered in the main thread as textures. The compositor waits for textures to be ready using fences and copies them directly to the compositor texture. This was the simplest approach that already resulted in much better performance, specially in the desktop with more powerful GPUs. In embedded systems, where GPUs are not so powerful, it’s still better to use the CPU with several rendering threads in most of the cases. It’s still too early to announce anything, but we are already experimenting with different models to improve the performance even more and make a better usage of the GPU in embedded devices. Skia has received several GCC specific optimizations lately, but it’s always more optimized when built with clang. The optimizations are more noticeable in performance when using the CPU for rendering. For this reason, since version 2.46 we recommend to build WebKit with clang for the best performance. GCC is still supported, of course, and performance when built with GCC is quite good too. § HiDPI Even though there aren’t specific changes about HiDPI in 2.46, users of high resolution screens using a device scale factor bigger than 1 will notice much better performance thanks to scaling being a lot faster on the GPU. § Accelerated canvas The 2D canvas can be accelerated independently on whether the CPU or the GPU is used for painting layers. In 2.46 there’s a new setting WebKitSettings:enable-2d-canvas-acceleration to control the 2D canvas acceleration. In some embedded devices the combination of CPU rendering for layer tiles and GPU for the canvas gives the best performance. The 2D canvas is normally rendered into an image buffer that is then painted in the layer as an image. We changed that for the accelerated case, so that the canvas is now rendered into a texture that is copied to a compositor texture to be directly composited instead of painted into the layer as an image. In 2.46 the offscreen canvas is enabled by default. There are more cases where accelerating the canvas is not desired, for example when the canvas size is not big enough it’s faster to use the GPU. Also when there’s going to be many operations to “download” pixels from GPU. Since this is not always easy to predict, in 2.46 we added support for the willReadFrequently canvas setting, so that when set by the application when creating the canvas it causes the canvas to be always unaccelerated. * ⚓ Critical_Nvidia_bug_allows_container_escape,_host_takeover⠀⇛ The flaw, tracked as CVE-2024-0132, earned a 9.0 out of 10 CVSS severity rating, and affects all versions of Container Toolkit up to and including v1.16.1, and Nvidia GPU Operator up to and including 24.6.1. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 846 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/09/28/Hardware_Tumbleweed_and_Bad_Passwords.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/09/28/Hardware_Tumbleweed_and_Bad_Passwords.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Hardware, Tumbleweed, and Bad Passwords⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 28, 2024 * § Hardware/Modding⠀➾ o ⚓ Arduino ☛ Let’s_play_at_the_Maker_Faire_Rome_2024!⠀⇛ We’re excited to be back at Maker Faire Rome as a Gold Sponsor of the 12th edition (October 25-27, 2024), with some memorable experiences lined up for all makers, innovators, and creators who attend! o ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Raytac_AN7002Q_–_A_smaller_nRF7002_Wi-Fi_6_module for_industrial_IoT_applications⠀⇛ IoT solutions company Raytac has introduced the AN7002Q Wi-Fi 6 module series, which integrates Nordic Semiconductor’s nRF7002 chipset and is designed for Industrial IoT, smart home, healthcare, consumer electronics, and automotive applications.

With the newly- funded project "Opt Green: Sustainable Software For Sustainable Hardware" KDE Eco aims to change that. A 2020 Eurobarometer poll found that 80% of European consumers believe manufacturers should make it easier to repair digital devices, while 50% indicate that the reason they purchase a new device is due to performance issues and non-functioning software. Free Software communities already understand that you don't need to buy new hardware to have an efficient, well-functioning, and up-to-date digital device; you just need the right software! Now, KDE Eco wants to make sure everyone else knows it, too. For the next 2 years, the "Opt Green" initiative will bring KDE Eco's work on sustainable software -- and, in turn, sustainable hardware -- directly to consumers. And this is as good a time as ever. In 2025, the end of support for backdoored Windows 10 is estimated to make e-waste out of 240 million computers ineligible for backdoored Windows 11. One year later in 2026, at the earliest, macOS support for Intel-based Fashion Company Apple computers -- the last of which were sold in 2020 -- is predicted to end, rendering even more millions upon millions of functioning computers obsolete. Every one of these functioning, yet vendor-abandoned devices can stay out of the landfill and in use for years to come with sustainable Free Software. (Consider, by comparison, that only in 2022 did Linus Torvalds suggest ending support for 1989's defective chip maker Intel 486 processors. That's 33 years of GNU/Linux kernel support!) By design, Free Software is right-to-repair software: it gives users control over their hardware by removing vendor dependencies and guaranteeing transparency and user autonomy. In this talk, I will present KDE Eco's new "Opt Green" project in terms of the whys, whats, and hows for bringing sustainable Free Software to new users. A target audience for the project are eco-consumers, those whose consumer behaviors are driven by principles related to the environment, and not necesssarily convenience or cost. Through online and offline campaigns as well as installation workshops, KDE Eco will demonstrate at fair-trade, organic, and artisinal markets the power of Free Software to drive down energy consumption and keep devices in use for years beyond official vendor support. With independent, sustainable software designed for users' needs, not vendors', it is possible to run efficient, cutting-edge software on the digital devices you already have at home or in your pocket. Opt green today! The most environmentally-friendly device is the one you already own. * ⚓ KDE Videos ☛ Qt_beyond_6.8_-_Akademy_2024⠀⇛ The Qt 6.8 should be around the corner by the time of Akademy, and we'll just have had our Qt Contributors Summit.

Touted as a stability release, Plasma 6 evolved to be more consistent, more bug-free than predecessors. The only thing missing from the release was a refreshed style. Taking this feedback into consideration, a small team of designers from the team took to review and create a few exciting changes for the current visual style. * ⚓ KDE Videos ☛ Only_hackers_will_survive_-_Akademy_2024⠀⇛ In this talk, I'll explore how the hackers' ethos - defined by open knowledge sharing, bold experimentations, and collective problem-solving - is vital for tackling global challenges, especially those one related to lack of regenerative resources management. I'll take you on a journey from crucial mineral mining hubs to electronic waste dumpsters, uncovering the intricate connections between code, hardware, open source principles as well as social and environmental justice. You'll gain a new perspective and discover how the KDE community's work is shaping a more resilient, regenerative future, and explore ways to extend those principles to create positive impact beyond tech world. * ⚓ KDE Videos ☛ Pythonizing_Qt_-_Akademy_2024⠀⇛ Since its release, Qt has been exposed to other languages in order to bring the amazing features to other communities, and to combine our beloved framework with other language-specific features. After the success of many language bindings like Python, particularly for the PyQt and PySide projects, one can ask: "Once the language bindings are complete, is the project done?" * ⚓ KDE Videos ☛ Lint_all_the_things!_-_Akademy_2024⠀⇛ QML is a great language to write fast User Interfaces but given its runtime nature it makes it a bit fragile to refactors. This lightning talk will try to convince you to enable qmllint in your compilation steps so that QML issues are found on compile time instead of runtime. JSON files play an important role in KDE's sources: We use them as metadata files for applets, embed them in plugin metadata. In order to avoid runtime problems or implicit type conversions, a CI job is added to all repos. But this is only a small benefit of the improved validation and schema efforts. This talk will highlight some benefits and show you, how you may utilize them. * ⚓ KDE Videos ☛ KDE's_CI_and_CD_infrastructure_-_Akademy_2024⠀⇛ From compiling, automated testing, linting and license verification over producing application packages for various platforms to shipping signed production releases to app stores, KDE's CI/CD system offers many ways to support you in developing software and getting it to your users. With the migration from Jenkins to Gitlab which was concluded earlier this year, the CI/CD infrastructure not only gained new capabilities but also became more accessible for contributors to set up and customize things. In this talk, we will give an overview of the available features and how to best employ those for your application. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1235 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/09/28/PipeWire_1_2_5_Fixes_Memory_Leak_and_Audio_Bugs.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/09/28/PipeWire_1_2_5_Fixes_Memory_Leak_and_Audio_Bugs.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ PipeWire 1.2.5 Fixes Memory Leak and Audio Bugs⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Sep 28, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇PipeWire_logo⦈_ Quoting: PipeWire 1.2.5 Fixes Memory Leak and Audio Bugs — One of the key issues addressed in this update is a file descriptor mismatch within the protocol.

That requires the "nomodeset" kernel command-line option. The initrd has the 'kexec' utility, which can restart the kernel with a new set of command-line parameters. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1538 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/09/28/RISC_V_and_Raspberry_Pi_Stories.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/09/28/RISC_V_and_Raspberry_Pi_Stories.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ RISC-V and Raspberry Pi Stories⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 28, 2024 * ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Bendable_non-silicon_RISC-V_CPU_demoed_running_while wrapped_around_a_pencil⠀⇛ Cambridge-based Pragmatic Semiconductor has demonstrated its Flex-RV bendable non-silicon RISC-V processor.

This is the second-to-last week of development before the repos are frozen, and we’re cranking away like mad to get 6.2 in great shape. And it is indeed in very good shape so far. The worst issues we’re still seeing are related to notifications freezing and being mis-rendered, caused by recent changes made to fix another significantly less severe issue. So in the worst-case scenario, we can simply revert the changes before the final 6.2 release if we don’t manage to fix the regressions in time. Something I hope we can prove to the world is that we’re capable of keeping Plasma stable over the long haul at the same time that we add features and refine the UI.

However, as technology evolves, FreeBSD faces a significant challenge: supporting modern laptops. To address this, the FreeBSD Foundation and Quantum Leap Research has committed $750,000 to improve laptop support, a strategic investment that will be pivotal in FreeBSD’s future. In this blog, we’ll explore why enhancing laptop support is critical for FreeBSD’s continued growth, how the Foundation is tackling this challenge, and why the timing of this initiative is essential.

And let me be even more specific: should they disclose to impacted individuals, or simply never let them know? I'm writing this after many recent such discussions with breached organisations where I've found myself wishing I had this blog post to point them to, so, here it is. * ⚓ India Times ☛ Education_and_healthcare_bear_brunt_of_cyberattacks: report⠀⇛ Education was the most targeted sector by cyberattackers in the past six months, with organisations facing 8,195 attacks per week, more than double the global average of 3,355, a new report has found. Healthcare was the second-most targeted with 7,982 weekly attacks per organisation over this period. It was followed by the government/military sector experiencing 4,590 attacks and the consulting sector facing 4,177 weekly attacks per organisation, according to a threat intelligence report by cybersecurity platform provider Check Point Software Technologies. * ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Cloud-busting_ransomware_gang_likened_to_Scattered Spider⠀⇛ The old faithful Cobalt Strike is used for lateral movement, which often ends in access to the domain controller and, subsequently, data theft and ransomware deployment. Recent attacks have given researchers cause for concern, however. During the credential-gathering phase, Storm-0501 used stolen credentials for Entra ID to pivot from on-prem to the cloud environment where they would proceed to implant a backdoor. * ⚓ Cyble Inc ☛ Securing_Operational_Technology_In_Water_Utilities_Against Cyber_Threats⠀⇛ Cyble Research & Intelligence Labs (CRIL) has identified a surge in cyber threats targeting water utilities, primarily attributed to pro-Russian hacktivist groups. In particular, the People’s Cyber Army (PCA) has been active since the beginning of 2024, launching attacks on critical infrastructure, including water treatment facilities. Their actions have caused significant disruptions, including incidents where water supply control systems were compromised, leading to the uncontrolled release of water and potential environmental hazards. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2550 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/09/28/Zorin_OS_17_2_Hands_On_with_the_Latest_Update.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/09/28/Zorin_OS_17_2_Hands_On_with_the_Latest_Update.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Zorin OS 17.2: Hands-On with the Latest Update⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 28, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Zorin_OS⦈_ Zorin OS has long been a great option for Linux users who want an easy-to-use, customizable desktop alternative to Windows. The latest version, Zorin OS 17.2, adds even more features that make it worth a look. Here’s my hands-on experience with the latest update. § Enhanced Customization with Zorin Appearance Zorin OS has always been customizable, but 17.2 takes it further. The Zorin Appearance tool lets you change your cursor theme with just a few clicks. It’s a small tweak, but I like having more control over these details.
