HP BIOS Management/Configuration Driver Coming For Linux 6.6 ( www.phoronix.com )

I would love to see more hardware makers expose BIOS settings through the OS, either by developing the necessary open-source drivers themselves or by publishing the specs so the community can do it. The current situation of having to reboot into the UEFI setup makes it impossible to tune those settings for real workloads.

Infrastructure Week - Day 1: What is Infrastructure? ( voidlinux.org )

This week we’ll be taking a look into the infrastructure that runs and operates Void. We’ll look at what we run, where it runs, and why it is setup the way it is. Overall at the end of the week you should have a better understanding of what actually makes Void happen at a mechanical level.

First days with daily driving Linux ( kbin.social )

Hey everyone, a while ago I made [this post] (https://kbin.social/m/linux/t/108370/Help-me-find-a-fitting-distro) asking for recommandations of distros. After some considerable thinking I went ahead and chose EndeavourOS (with Gnome) due to wanting an experience as close to Arch as possible but having some handholding at the...

AlmaLinux gives up being 1:1 RHEL compatible ( almalinux.org )

In case you missed it, Red Hat announced they will no longer be providing the means for downstream clones to continue to be 1:1 binary copies of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). Very quickly, both Jack and I shared some initial thoughts, but we intentionally took our time deciding the next right step for AlmaLinux OS. After much...

Stupid Beginner Question: What Linux Desktop Environment works well or has an output mode for NTSC/PAL resolution? ( kbin.social )

Yes I am thinking of using my little TV (composite AV input only (from an HDMI-to-composite dongle)) as my second display. Going command line-only would be ok if I don't have a choice, but then I watch miniDV and VCD footages sometimes. My Mint machine was broken so i didn't have a chance to test that. So not sure if it could go...

A distro and desktop environment recommendation for an old laptop (Read all of it, please.) ( kbin.social )

'sup? So, I am a beginner that has an old Samsung laptop from 2013 with an i3 4005U, a GeForce 710M, 500GB HDD (I will probably upgrade it to an SSD, but not for now.), 4GB 1600 MHz DDR3L RAM (the same for the HDD, will probably upgrade to 8GB some time.). It currently has Windows 10 Home but Linux is probably lighter (right?)...

SUSE Preserves Choice in Enterprise Linux by Forking RHEL with a $10+ Million Investment ( www.suse.com )

SUSE is committed to working with the open source community to develop a long-term, enduring compatible alternative for RHEL and CentOS users. SUSE plans to contribute this project to an open source foundation, which will provide ongoing free access to alternative source code.

Can I use Linux from a portable Hard Drive to use whenever/wherever I need it? ( kbin.social )

So if I have my Desktop at home, my personal laptop, and my laptop I use for work/business trips, can I have my own personal Linux setup on a portable drive that I can plug into and boot into from any of my devices? Like a cloud Linux setup, but I'm the cloud. Fear my cumulonimbus rumbles!
