When he looked at how he could meaningfully contribute to Fedora, documentation was the obvious answer. He started with Fedora Core 1, stepped away, and returned in […]

Recently I published some initial SpacemiT K3 benchmarks for that first-to-market RISC-V RVA23 SoC with the K3 Pico-ITX mini computer. In there was a comparison against modern Intel Core Ultra and AMD Ryzen desktop CPUs along with the likes of the Raspberry Pi 5, Loongson 3B6000, and SiFive HiFive Premier. For those curious about the longer-term RISC-V performance, here is a look at how far the RISC-V hardware performance has come compared to the SiFive HiFive Unmatched RISC-V board from five years ago.

Bit-Brick’s EPC1000 is an industrial edge computing system built around the SpacemiT K1 RISC-V processor. The platform is intended for applications including industrial IoT, smart transportation, agriculture monitoring, environmental sensing, and edge analytics. The system is powered by an octa-core X60 RISC-V processor operating at up to 1.8 GHz and compliant with the RISC-V 64GCVB […]

With Euro-Office due on Tuesday, and LibreOffice Online back in development, Collabora has plenty on the line with this new release.

This is a release-candidate for 7.4, marking a fundamental commitment to a "legacy" architecture, embracing Xlibre and gtk2-ng.

In general, instance setup was proposed by Google AI (1-5). My choice was to create four subvolumes followed by "Trick snapper method". (6) I've also suggested to run critical "mv /mnt/btrfs-top/root /mnt/btrfs-top/root_broken" inside the Live F44 (KDE Plasma) instance against crashed instance F44 Server been built on top vda with flat architecture been spread across four btrfs subvolumes "root","home","boot" and ".snapshots"

Flock to Fedora is more than a conference – it’s where the Fedora community comes alive. As part of the CommitHistory campaign, we sat down with confirmed Flock 2026 speakers to hear their stories: what brought them to Fedora, what Flock means to them personally, and what they’re hoping for in Prague this June. This […]

The belated "This Month in Redox" was posted today for covering improvements made to this open-source, Rust-based operating system during the month of May. Most notable in May is seeing the Xfce desktop ported over to Redox OS...

The Document Foundation disputes Euro-Office’s “first European open-source office suite” claim and criticizes its OOXML default.

Flatpak, the popular Linux application sandboxing and distribution framework, has been updated today to version 1.18, a major release that comes with new features and improvements.

OpenCV 5.0 debuts a new DNN engine, broader ONNX support, VLM inference, C++17 requirements, and legacy API cleanup.

Last week I ran benchmarks of CachyOS with the BORE scheduler using its "linux-cachyos-bore" kernel option. The results didn't end up being as enticing as anticipated but the developer behind the BORE scheduler commented in the forums that he recently received reports from users experiencing game stuttering while using BORE that was attributed to CachyOS' default use of Ananicy-Cpp. So over the weekend I did another CachyOS BORE run without that CachyOS default...

Rspamd 4.1 lands with redesigned MX checks, load-aware upstreams, dynamic composites, stronger diagnostics, and broad security hardening.
