Alyssa Anne Rosenzweig v příspěvku na svém blogu oznámila, že opustila Asahi Linux a nastoupila do Intelu. Místo Apple M1 a M2 se bude věnovat architektuře Intel Xe-HPG.

In this series, I examine every aspect of this Mini PC in detail from a Linux perspective. I’ll compare the machine with desktop PC counterparts along the way. The post ASRock Industrial NUC BOX-255H Running Linux: Power Consumption appeared first on Linux Today .

I’ve just started using zram for swap on VMs. The use of compression for swap in Linux apparently isn’t new, it’s been in the Linux kernel since version 3.2 (since 2012). But until recent years I hadn’t used it. When I started using Mobian (the Debian distribution for phones) zram was in the default setup, it basically works and I never needed to bother with it which is exactly what you want from such a technology. After seeing it’s benefits in Mobian I started using it on my laptops where it w…

Mark Tyson writes via Tom's Hardware: On this day 34 years ago, an unknown computer science student from Finland announced that a new free operating system project was "starting to get ready." Linus Benedict Torvalds elaborated by explaining that the OS was "just a hobby, [it] won't be big and professional like GNU." Of course, this was the first public outing for the colossal collaborative project that is now known as Linux. Above, you can see Torvalds' first posting regarding Linux to the com…

Nejohroženější skupinou jsou prý tlumočníci. Tak snad ještě mají někde ve skříních schované ty své tlumoky, které daly jejich profesi před staletími jméno. :-D

Jakýkoliv neobvyklý intenzivní provoz pod mými okny znamená havárii na trase Benešov, Tábor – typicky u odbočky na Bystřici. Dnešek není výjimkou. Kontrolně se dívám na https://dopravniinfo.gov.cz/o­kresBenesov a vidím havárii i jak se postupně vytváří kolony a objízdné trasy. Co mne překvapuje, je provoz hodinu poté, co havárie byla odstraněna. Na státní aplikaci je vidět, že průjezd dotčeným úsekem cca 1km je pomalejší, ale v pohodě…

Shadow stacks are a control-flow-integrity feature designed to defend against exploits that manipulate a thread's call stack. The kernel first gained support for hardware-implemented shadow stacks , for the x86 architecture, in the 6.6 release; 64-bit Arm support followed in 6.13. This feature does not give user space much control over the allocation of shadow stacks for new threads, though; a patch series from Mark Brown may, after many attempts, finally be about to change that situation.

As another very unfortunate setback for the Asahi Linux project moving forward after Hector Martin left the project as did Asahi Lina pausing work on open-source Apple driver development, Alyssa Rosenzweig announced today that she is stepping away from the project following the successes in bringing up Apple M1 and M2 graphics drivers for Linux...
