The Linux Foundation, together with partners such as AWS, Google, Microsoft, IBM, NVIDIA, and other stakeholders, has launched the Akrites initiative. The goal is to better protect open-source software against AI-assisted attack tools. At its core is a Security Incident Response Team that centrally coordinates and systematically handles vulnerability reports.

The increasing use of AI is changing the threat landscape. Vulnerabilities can now be identified more quickly, creating both opportunities and risks. For developers, this translates into growing pressure on maintainers and projects. Also included: QOwnNotes as a Markdown editor, the Minimalist Animated Weather Widget for Plasma, as well as updates and security updates in TUXEDO OS.

Hi, when trying to update through discover today, I got a failed download error with the following message:

Does anyone know how I could fix it? Or the cause of it?

I built this PC last year with the intent to put TuxedoOS on it, and as such picked the MSI motherboard listed as the one used in Tuxedo's computers. (MAG Tomahawk) Internet has worked fine for a year, did a Zoom call Thursday one week, and then Saturday the following week (this past Saturday) suddenly it doesn't know what wifi is anymore. I just did a diagnostic showing the chip (MT7922) and module (mt7921e) but no driver. Any idea what happened here? And, more importantly, how to fix it?

I have already done "sudo apt update", "sudo apt upgrade linux-firmware" and "sudo apt install --reinstall linux-firmware"

Moin,

ich sah letzte Nacht ein interessantes Video auf dem YT Kanal Fresh Forensics by Douglas Habian mit dem Titel "I Audited My Ubuntu System... The Results Were Concerning", welches darum geht die Sicherheit unter Linux zu erhöhen.

Nun geht es dort auch um Unattended Upgrades.

Kann ich die einfach installieren und aktivieren ohne dass es sich mit den Sicherheitsupdates beißt, die direkt über die Tuxedo Server kommen?

Auch in ClamUI ist der Bereich mit einem Warnsymbol versehen, weil es nicht aktiv ist. Angeblich ist es auf meinem PC schon installiert, aber wenn ich sudo dpkg-reconfigure unattended-upgrades aufrufe, kommt

$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure unattended-upgrades
[sudo] Passwort für USER: 
dpkg-query: Paket »unattended-upgrades« ist nicht installiert und es ist keine Information verfügbar
Verwenden Sie dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) zum Untersuchen von Archiven.
/usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: unattended-upgrades is not installed.
~$ 

Danke.

Moin Leute!

Wir haben für die Arbeit Tuxedo-Laptops mit Windows-11-Pro-Lizenz bestellt.

Kann mir jemand sagen, ob der Lizenzschlüssel physisch dabei liegt oder dieser ausgelesen werden muss?

I am planning to buy a laptop from tuxedo next week, specifically the Gemini 17.

It has an i9-14900hx and an RTX 5070ti. I know these would generally work fine (with nonfree drivers of course).

I've searched a lot but there is very limited info out there when combining one of these laptops and void linux.

I am looking for anyone who has one of these laptops running void, and wondering how much work it would be/any quirks I need to be aware of to get all of the drivers, function hot-keys for brightness, volume etc. And the tuxedo control centre up and running.

I am slightly concerned about things such as the cpu/gpu clocking functionality, RGB control, their tomte tool, gpu profiling and just about everything that it can do, really.

Thank you.

In the latest edition of This Week in TUXEDO OS (TWIX), we first take a look at the future of KDE. The community is entering the fifth cycle of the KDE Goals and is gathering key focus areas for the next two years. Until early August, anyone interested can submit proposals and actively help shape the further development of KDE Plasma and the entire ecosystem.

We also introduce ChatQT, an AI chat client that conveniently integrates both local and cloud-based language models into the Plasma desktop. In addition, our TUXEDO OS Tips & Tricks section highlights practical Firefox features for improved privacy, better overview, and more efficient browsing – from containers and convenient tab management to the built-in reader view.

Hallo,

nachdem ich ein Notebook aus dem Jahr 2016 nach einigen Monaten "Aus-Zeit" aktualisiert hatte, laufe ich mit dem Kernel 6.17 nun in eine Kernel Panik.

Wenn ich in Grub den älteren Kernel 6.14 auswähle, dann fährt das Notebook normal hoch.

Was ist beim Update falsch gelaufen, wie bekomme ich das repariert?

Danke.
