GNOME 3.24 Release Notes

GNOME 3.24 is the latest version of GNOME 3, and is the result
of 6 months’ hard work by the GNOME community. It contains major new
features, as well as many smaller improvements and bug fixes. In total, the
release incorporates 28459 changes, made by approximately 753
contributors.

Ubuntu 17.04 (Zesty Zapus) Final Beta Released with Linux Kernel 4.10, Mesa 17.0

Canonical released today, as expected, the Final Beta of the upcoming Ubuntu 17.04 (Zesty Zapus) operating system, due for release on April 13, 2017, along with the rest of the opt-in flavors, such as Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Ubuntu GNOME, etc.

We’re absolutely chuffed to bits to announce, what is quite possibly,
the best Ubuntu MATE beta we’ve ever released. We didn’t participate
in the Beta 1 so we have quite the change log from Alpha 2 that was
released in January. We still have some fixes to land for the themes
but overall this release is shaping up to be really great.

Xorg is now crashing whenever my monitors are going to sleep (happens always in my lunch time) – after returning its crashed and i need todo a hard reset to get the gpu running again.

State of Linux on the MacBook Pro 2016

The following document provides an overview about Linux support for the Apple
MacBook Pro 2016 line.

Stack Overflow Developer Survey 2017

MostLovedPlatform

Linux Desktop was the most loved platform. Sharepoint was the most dreaded. And finally, more developers wanted to work with Android this year than any other platform.

Senate votes to let ISPs sell your Web browsing history to advertisers

The US Senate today voted to eliminate broadband privacy rules that would have required ISPs to get consumers’ explicit consent before selling or sharing Web browsing data and other private information with advertisers and other companies.

Following the vote, Senator Ed Markey said “ISP” should stand for “information sold for profit,” and “invading subscriber privacy,”

How ISPs can sell your Web history—and how to stop them

So what has changed for Internet users? In one sense, nothing changed this week, because the requirement to obtain customer consent before sharing or selling data is not scheduled to take effect until at least December 4, 2017. ISPs didn’t have to follow the rules yesterday or the day before, and they won’t ever have to follow them if the rules are eliminated.

Feedback

Re: our call out for engagement
  • We know not all, maybe even the majority are very active on social networks/reddit.
  • We are making a plea to those that are, those that reshare and are active. Help us please.
Feedback Takeaways

  • Each feedback medium reflects the era of the show when it was created to a degree.

  • r/las: Turns into a mob after a couple of days, misses our replies, accuses us of not replying. Often critical of Noah, tends to be nostalgic of the past.

  • Telegram: Loves Noah, mostly likes the show as is. Most of them have suggestions/ideas. All of which seem the best so far. Say I’ll keep following whatever you do.

  • Email: A lot of love, def some strong ideas for change.

  • Twitter: Mixed bag, but majority is positive.

  • YouTube: Similar to the r/LAS.

  • Patreon: Positive, and encouraging.

Catch the show LIVE SUNDAY:

NVIDIA Makes Huge Code Contribution To Qt, New Qt 3D Studio

NVIDIA open-sourced and contributed to Qt the NVIDIA DRIVE Design Studio, which is a “designer friendly 3D UI authoring system” and Qt is now releasing it with the name Qt 3D Studio.

Interview: Thomas Weissel Installing Plasma in Austrian Schools

About 34 classrooms, 2 consulting rooms, the room for teachers and one computer lab just got upgraded to a custom “distribution” based on Kubuntu and KDE neon. At least 75 teachers are going to work with the system. Most of the 700+ students are not going to touch these computers (because they are locked away) but in their 5th grade every one of them gets a live USB flash-drive in order to work with the very same system in the computer lab.

The State of Plasma

Since 2014, Plasma has kept me entertained and disappointed in equal measures. At some point, I had it crowned my favorite desktop, and then it went downhill steeply, fast, struggling to recover. Not helping was the slew of bugs and regressions across the distro space, which exacerbated the quality of Plasma and what it could show the world.

Linux 4.10 – Linux Kernel Newbies

This release adds support for Intel GVT-g for KVM (a.k.a. KVMGT), a full GPU virtualization solution with mediated pass-through, starting from 4th generation Intel Core (Haswell) processors with Intel Graphics. This feature is based on a new VFIO Mediated Device framework. Unlike direct pass-through alternatives, the mediated device framework allows KVMGT to offer a complete virtualized GPU with full GPU features to each one of the virtualized guests, with part of performance critical resources directly assigned, while still having performance close to native. The capability of running native graphics driver inside a VM, without hypervisor intervention in performance critical paths, achieves a good balance among performance, feature, and sharing capability.

GNOME 3.24 Desktop Environment Enters Beta, Final Release Is Coming March 22

GNOME 3.23.90 is now available. This is the beta release for the upcoming stable GNOME 3.24 release. At this point, we have entered feature freeze, UI freeze, and API freeze, so developers should be focused on bugfixes and stability improvements for the next month as we approach GNOME 3.24,” said Michael Catanzaro in a mailing list announcement.

The upcoming beta of Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 — regular Ubuntu only takes part in the second beta — will feature GNOME 3.24 Beta 1 (v3.23.90) and defaults to the latest GNOME Shell desktop.

Plasma in a Snap?

Shortly before FOSDEM, Aleix Pol asked if I had ever put Plasma in a Snap. While I was a bit perplexed by the notion itself, I also found this a rather interesting idea.

GPD Pocket, The 7-Inch Ubuntu Laptop is Now Live on IndieGoGo

It took the little 7-inch laptop less than 7 hours to leap over its $200,000 fixed funding goal. This means the device will (barring any hiccups) be produced.

The device is super small, measuring a teeny 7.1-inch by 4.2-inch (and standing a mere 0.7-inch tall). The GPD Pocket offers a 7-inch 1920×1200 IPS screen, pushing a pixel-popping 323 PPI. Corning Gorilla Glass 3.

Despite the diminutive proportions the unibody magnesium alloy case contains some powerful internals.

Core specs:
  • 7-inch full-HD (1920×1200) IPS touch display
  • Intel Atom x7-Z8750 CPU (Quad Core) @ 1.6GHz
  • 8GB RAM
  • 128GB eMMC

The device does have a fan. GPD says this ‘active cooling’ means its** performance is better than the Microsoft Surface 3**, which is passively cooled.

Also:
  • 7,000 mAh battery (12 hours battery life estimated)
  • 802.11ac WiFi
  • Bluetooth 4.1
  • 1x USB 3.0 Type-C
  • 1x USB 3.0 Type-A
  • micro HDMI
  • 3.5mm headphone jack

An option USB Type-C dock can be attached to provide an additional 2x USB 3.0 ports and an SD and microSD card reader.

The included QWERTY keyboard takes up as much room as possible, with a small pointer nub in-between a split space bar (yup, no trackpad, no palm rest).

More than just thin but also small, small to fit in your pocket!
