Canonical has announced a new tool that lets developers quickly create reproducible isolated dev environments made from SDKs and defined by a YAML.

Using unprivileged LXD system containers with their own kernel and a host resource access system inspired by snapd, they company say they'll even allow agentic tools to run in a 'harmless' way.

🆕 blog! “Gadget Review: Chuwi Minibook X N150 + Linux”
★★★★☆

I needed a small and light laptop to take travelling. Something with a larger screen than my phone so I can use the Big Internet™. Nothing too expensive and something that uses the same USB-C charger as everything else.

So I settled on the Chuwi Minibook N150. It's literally small enough to fit …

Hello Fediverse!

We now have an account for Aurora on here :)

Our stable branch is getting ready to move from Fedora 42 to 43, hopefully next week. Also at the same time we are working on our new ISOs that will use the new Anaconda WebUI installer.

We hope to get this to "beta" stage with the F43 stable release.

Ok.. I still need to fill a few gaps, but my sleeper build is working great and honestly has great airflow and temps seem good.

I'm running #bazzite #linux on it and it's running things like Forza horizon on ultra with no thermal issues.

I'm curious, what are some ways to benchmark or stress the system to see the thermal limits of the GPU and CPU? How does one test this besides throwing games at it?

Is there a standard bench-marking tool?

If you’re on Linux, there’s a good chance you use GNOME: it’s the default experience across Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora Workstation, Endless OS, and more. If you’re on another desktop, you still likely use components developed by GNOME contributors—or maybe you get apps from Flathub.

Want to become more than just a user? How about… a friend? 🥺 Become a Friend of GNOME to support GNOME, Flathub, and the work we do!

I tried tuning various parameters but after some reading came to the conclusion that lots of small files with very little RAM is about the worst case scenario for XFS.

For those on Fedora 42 KDE, with AMD GPUs:

I've noticed that the kernel version 6.14.8-300.fc42.x86_64 (64-bit) completely freezes my system due to some GPU issues.

If you have this bug too, share info here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2359116

However kernel 6.14.6-300.fc42.x86_64 (64-bit) works just fine.

Just wanted to raise awareness if someone else has same issue. Just boot to older kernel and things should be ok!

Full specs:

Operating System: Fedora Linux 42
KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.80
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.15.0
Qt Version: 6.9.0
Kernel Version: 6.14.6-300.fc42.x86_64 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
Processors: 12 × AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor
Memory: 16 GiB of RAM (15.5 GiB usable)
Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX 6600
