Pardus 25.0 promises a “just install and go” experience for Linux users. We test whether this Turkish distro lives up to that promise.

The command line remains the most powerful interface for Linux users, but traditional Unix tools like ls, cat, grep, and find are showing their age. A new generation of CLI tools offers significant improvements in speed, usability, and features. In this tutorial, we explore 10 modern alternatives that will transform your daily workflow and boost your productivity.

The Alpine Linux team announced today the release and general availability of Alpine Linux 3.23 as another major update to this independent and security-oriented GNU/Linux distribution.

Linux has become the backbone of modern IT infrastructure, powering the majority of web servers, cloud platforms, and even the most popular security tools used by professionals worldwide. For cybersecurity professionals, strong Linux skills are no longer optional-they're essential. Whether your goal is to break into systems as an ethical hacker or defend and secure them against malicious actors, a solid foundation in Linux will be at the core of your career. The cybersecurity field offers two distinct but complementary paths for Linux-focused professionals: offensive security (Red Team) and defensive security (Blue Team). Each path requires deep technical expertise, but they approach security challenges from opposite perspectives. Understanding both paths-their overlapping fundamentals, unique specializations, and career trajectories-is crucial for anyone looking to build a successful career as a Linux Security Engineer.

The stable release of Linux Kernel 6.18 was officially tagged on November 30, 2025. Here’s a breakdown of the most significant changes and improvements in this release:

Last month I reported on Linux 6.19 looking to enable Microsoft C Extensions support throughout the Linux kernel with setting the -fms-extensions compiler option to allow Microsoft C Extensions when building the kernel. Linus Torvalds today merged that support without objections...

A proposal was raised a month ago for Fedora Linux 44 to replace the kernel's frame-buffer console "FBCON" with KMSCON in user-space. The Fedora Engineering and Steering Committee (FESCo) has now granted approval for making this change in Fedora 44 as part of a larger foal to eventually deprecate FBCON/FBDEV emulation in the kernel...

Wireshark, the world’s most popular network protocol analyzer, has been updated today to version 4.6.2, the second point release to the Wireshark 4.6 series, addressing various bugs and security issues.

Last week I provided a look at how Intel's GPU compute performance on Battlemage evolved in 2025. In today's article is a similar Intel Arc A-Series "Alchemist" and B-Series "Battlemage" look at how the OpenGL and Vulkan graphics performance has evolved over the past year. Simply put, the open-source Intel Linux graphics driver stack has evolved immensely this year... Not just for Vulkan but even the OpenGL support continues moving in the right direction too.

AlmaLinux forms a Media & Entertainment SIG to address ecosystem disruptions and deliver a reliable Linux base for modern studio pipelines.

Sound Open Firmware is one of the projects started originally by Intel but has grown into a multi-vendor initiative for open-source audio digital signal processing (DSP) firmware and development tooling for a variety of platforms under the Linux Foundation umbrella...

As expected, the recently released Linux 6.18 kernel series has been officially marked as LTS (Long Term Support) on the kernel.org website with a predicted life expectancy of at least two years.

Let’s Encrypt begins a multi-year transition to shorter certificate validity, moving from 90-day to 45-day certificates.

Mission-Center offers a single interface for tracking resource usage and managing processes and services, making routine system checks easier from the desktop.

Hammerspace maximizes your GPU usage using your existing NVMe storage Partner content As AI computing expands across hybrid and multi-cloud environments, infrastructure teams are under pressure to accelerate time-to-insight while maximizing GPU investments. But too often, storage becomes the bottleneck.…

Rocky Linux 9.7 introduces post-quantum cryptography policies, toolchain updates, a refreshed Cockpit UI, and expanded image creation options for developers.

Docker container images often contain security vulnerabilities inherited from their base operating system packages. Rather than rebuilding images from scratch, you can use Trivy to scan for vulnerabilities and Copa to patch them directly. This tutorial demonstrates how to identify and fix container vulnerabilities on Ubuntu, Debian, RHEL, CentOS, and Fedora systems using these two powerful open-source tools.

Via the openSUSE Innovator Initiative, packaging of the Intel Neural Processing Unit (NPU) driver for the openSUSE ecosystem has begun. This is helping to jump-start the Intel NPU support within the openSUSE space although user-space applications ready to leverage the Intel NPU still remains very limited...
