The Linux kernel 6.12 intends to implement the possibility of enabling Realtime mode.

Linux kernel developers have announced the submission of final changes required for building the kernel with the PREEMPT_RT option, which includes tools for real-time operation, to the linux-next branch that will be used for the 6.12 release. Once the changes are accepted into the main kernel branch, the PREEMPT_RT mode will be available for X86, ARM64, and RISC-V architectures. Later, support for other architectures will be added […]

Red Hat has released the first version of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux AI distribution.

Red Hat has announced the readiness of a new edition of the RHEL distribution — Red Hat Enterprise Linux AI (RHEL AI), specifically tailored for machine learning tasks and designed to simplify the creation of server solutions using large language models. This distribution includes a selection of tools and frameworks for machine learning, drivers for utilizing various hardware accelerators from AMD, Intel, and […]

The Nginx project has transitioned its development to Git and GitHub.

The Nginx project has announced the transition from the Mercurial version control system to Git, the relocation of the official repository to GitHub, and the utilization of GitHub Issues and GitHub Discussions instead of the bug tracking system trac.nginx.org and discussions via mailing lists. This move to GitHub is expected to simplify interaction with the community and attract external developers to participate in the project. For […]

Release of Rust 1.81. Hurdles in promoting Rust to the Linux kernel

The release of the general-purpose programming language Rust 1.81, initially developed by Mozilla, is now being furthered under the auspices of the independent non-profit organization, Rust Foundation. The language focuses on safe memory usage and provides tools to achieve high task parallelism, all while avoiding the need for a garbage collector and runtime (runtime is limited to basic initialization and support for the standard library). […]

Release of Wine 9.17 and Wine staging 9.17

An experimental release of the open implementation of the Win32 API—Wine 9.17—has been published. Since the release of 9.16, 29 bug reports have been closed and 206 changes have been made. The most significant changes include: Support for scaling window surfaces on high-density pixel (High DPI) displays has been implemented. The built-in Vkd3d package with the Direct3D 12 implementation has been updated to version 1.13. The Wine Mono engine has […]

The EUCLEAK attack, which allows cloning YubiKey 5 and other keys on Infineon chips

Security researchers from NinjaLab have developed a side-channel attack technique that allows for the cloning of ECDSA keys stored in cryptographic tokens such as YubiKey 5 and other devices using the Infineon cryptographic library. The attack has been codenamed EUCLEAK and, in addition to tokens with Infineon SLE78 chips, like YubiKey 5, it can also be applied to many other systems with microcontrollers […]

The systemd port for systems based on the Musl library has been presented.

The creator of the unique distribution Adelie Linux, which uses the standard C library Musl, the OpenRC initialization system, and the APK package manager, announced the successful porting of the system manager systemd for use with the Musl library. Although the implementation is in its initial stages, it is already quite stable and demonstrates a threefold reduction in boot time compared to using OpenRC. Initially, systemd supports operation […]

OpenMoHAA alpha 0.70.0

The alpha version 0.70.0 of the open engine Medal of Honor - OpenMoHAA has been released. The project's goal is to create a cross-platform engine with open source code, fully compatible with the original Medal of Honor. The OpenMoHAA project is based on the source code of ioquake3, as the original Medal of Honor used the Id Tech 3 engine (that is, the engine from Quake 3) as its base. What […]

The release of the Q4OS 5.6 distribution, packaged with the Trinity desktop environment

The Q4OS 5.6 distribution has been released, based on the Debian package base and featuring the KDE Plasma 5 and Trinity desktop environments (continuing the development of the KDE 3.5.x codebase). Both user environments can coexist simultaneously in one system, allowing users to switch between them. The distribution is positioned as low on hardware demands while offering a classic desktop layout. Size […]

Introducing SyncStar, a service for creating bootable USB drives

A Fedora developer at Red Hat has introduced the SyncStar toolkit, which allows users to deploy services for writing operating system installations to USB drives of their choice. The primary purpose of SyncStar is to create kiosks and information stands that can be used at technical conferences and exhibitions to record bootable distributions of various operating systems onto USB drives for participants. The project's code is written […]

QEMU Emulator 9.1.0 is Available

The release of QEMU 9.1 has been announced. As an emulator, QEMU allows you to run programs compiled for one hardware platform on a system with an entirely different architecture, for example, executing an ARM application on an x86-compatible PC. In virtualization mode, QEMU's code execution performance in an isolated environment is close to that of a hardware system due to direct instruction execution on the CPU and the involvement of […]

Ergo Framework 3.0

The Ergo Framework is an implementation of ideas, technologies, and design patterns from the Erlang world in the Go programming language. It is built on the actor model, network transparency, and a set of ready-made components for development. This significantly simplifies the creation of complex and distributed solutions while ensuring a high level of reliability and performance. This version marks an important milestone in the development of Ergo […]
