Hi everyone,
We have come to the decision to cease operations of cohost and anti software software club due to lack of funding and burnout.
Valve released a new update to Proton Experimental for Steam Deck and Desktop Linux, that brings in a nice list of game fixes to get even more working.
Another Arrow Lake Graphics Device ID Being Added To Intel's Linux Driver
The Intel Arrow Lake Linux graphics driver support appears largely wrapped up following a patch for properly handling the necessary GSC firmware requirements and building off all the existing Meteor Lake Arc Graphics driver code paths. There are a number of Arrow Lake PCI device IDs already present for the graphics while a new one is being added now to the kernel โฆ phoronix.com/news/Intel-Arrow-โฆ

I know this comment may not be representative of the general C/C++ community, not even the kernel community. But it is this kind of comments that erode the trust in any project
> The thing that always gets me about computer scientists is when there is a problem, the first thing they do is invent a new language to try and solve it in!
Being a C/C++ developer with +10 YOE, and only 1 with Rust, this makes me want to embrace Rust even more...
It's really funny when people say R4L people don't know C... of course we're experienced C programmers, we wouldn't be able to make Rust work with C otherwise. Rust is a choice, nobody working on Rust for Linux is "bad at C".
If anything, learning Rust has made me a better C programmer ^^
@lina I just thought it's general protection fault, misspelled, and made no sense. not the first acronym I'll never understand, so just shrugged for the past few decades of looking at kernel code
Mesa 24.3 Removes Support For The Long-Abandoned OpenMAX API

Mesa 24.3 is now 11.6k lines of code lighter after removing support for the OpenMAX (OMX) API that was implemented as a Gallium3D state tracker long ago and hasn't seen any activity in recent years and the upstream OpenMAX standards work halted more than one decade ago... phoronix.com/news/Mesa-24.3-Reโฆ

Intel Efficiency Latency Control "ELC" Feature Slated For Linux 6.12
Last month I wrote about Intel Linux engineers working on a new Efficiency Latency Control feature for their uncore driver. This ELC option allows for adjusting the behavior of the Intel uncore for efficiency versus latency characteristics. Those Intel ELC patches to the TPMI uncore driver are now queued up for merging with the upcoming Linux 6.12 cycle... phoronix.com/news/Intel-Uncoreโฆ

Thank you for the insights. It's good to have another data point to verify that we didnโt miss anything obvious. It's basically the toolset weโre using for our #Fedora laptops at #foundata, besides Splunk.
I guess I should share a bit about #Thunderbird scripting and complete account Autoconfiguration, including CalDAV and CardDAV (since this configuration topic was raised.. I know from experience this is often a pain point, whether itโs a larger Linux or Windows deployment.)
@coolmcgrrr The presenter did say that they are very excited about what is developing with bootc. You are right, Fedora Atomic Desktops address many of the issues with managing systems at scale.
Remember somewhat recently there was a new campaign to highlight bot issues in Team Fortress 2 (TF2)? This was part of the SaveTF2 petition, which gathered over 340,000 names and now it's at Valve's HQ.
I love that they went to the effort of binding this so nicely. Clever, not only does it legitimize it in Valve's eyes, but also makes a nice image for any media who are sharing the story
Someone over there knows what they're doing, and I love it so much!!!

I stopped using Emudeck a while ago because I couldn't find a way to turn off the touch pad radial menu that I kept hitting on accident. I ended up setting up the emulators and Steam ROM Manager manually. While it's not for everyone, it was the only way I could get things just the way I wanted them. Besides, tinkering is the best part of setting up any device IMO

if I had been out for a laptop, I would go for one with USB4, at least #TUXEDO has a few models right now.
Something I would really like to see is a comparison between the different brands of Linux laptops, what is good and what ain't on them, like the touchpad.
Night School Studio sent out an email to owners ofย Oxenfree on itch.io, to notify that it's going to be completely removed from the store on October 1st.

Well, god damn, that's gross. Sounds like Netflix is on its way to further ruin the video game market. It sucks when companies shift their model to video games just because of the money. We have enough greedy companies as it is.
