Ubuntu Linux Looking To Get Rid Of /etc/debian_version Historical Artifact  Phoronix

Going along with the upstream Linux 7.2 kernel deprecation of AF_ALG and Linux 7.3 to further restrict this interface for letting user-space programs interact directly with the Linux kernel crypto API, Fedora 45 is looking to follow and help support this transition...

At this week's AMD Advancing AI 2026 event, "AI" was mentioned thousands of times in talks and in demos. As expected. Beyond that, the other term likely most heard during the event was "open"... Not particularly new for AMD with their long history of open-source efforts but I'd wager at this year's AMD Advancing AI 2026 event they were more acutely bringing up open-source, open ecosystems, and open standards. Certainly seemed like an uptick in "open" mentions and a ramp that's been building each year at the AMD events...

Snapdragon X Elite Laptop Experience Still Lackluster On Ubuntu 26.04 LTS  Phoronix

At the end of last year when checking out the latest Linux experience on the Snapdragon X Elite it was a disappointing affair. The performance had regressed and overall a more headache-inducing experience than just running a modern AMD Ryzen AI or Intel Core Ultra laptop on Linux. Given the recent release of Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, I've been re-testing the Acer Swift 14 AI laptop with Snapdragon X Elite SoC to see how its performing under Linux now and against the AMD/Intel competition. Unfortunately, it's regressed even further than the last round of testing.

If you are running containerized workloads on Red Hat OpenShift, then you already benefit from industry-leading process isolation. Security context constraints (SCC) restrict what pods can do, SELinux enforces mandatory access controls, cgroups limit resource consumption, and many permissive Linux capabilities are dropped by default. That said, all of these controls still operate on a shared host kernel. For the majority of workloads, this is perfectly fine. But when you are running untrusted code especially with privileged containers, you can use OpenShift sandboxed containers for an addition

Looking back a few months ago, it's wild to think about how much things have changed in the world of cybersecurity. Not long ago, running a few outdated application runtimes, pushing Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) patches to "next month's sprint," or carrying end-of-life tech stacks was a normal, acceptable part of doing business. Today? That approach is an immediate open door for automated exploits. The timeline has collapsed, and fixing these vulnerabilities fast is now a matter of immediate survival for enterprise safety.The arrival of highly-capable frontier AI models like Clau
