What happens when you take Ubuntu 17.10, a new desktop interface (one that overlays on top of KDE), snap packages, and roll them all up into a pseudo rolling release? You get Nitrux. At first blush, this particular… Continue reading Linux.com Raves About New Snap-Centric ‘Nitrux’ Distro
Aidan Finn shows you how to use virtual machine groups on Windows Server 2016 Hyper-V to manage a set of virtual machines, including adding support for operational actions on VHDX Sets.

If you’ve ever been curious if there’s a way to program microcontrollers without actually writing software, you might be interested in FlowCode. It isn’t a free product, but there is a free demo available. [Web learning] did a demo of programming a Nucleo board using the system. You can check it out below.
The product looks slick and it supports a dizzying number of processors ranging from AVR (yes, it will do Arduino), PIC, and ARM targets. However, the pricing can add up if you actually want to target all of those processors as you wind up paying for the …read more
We don’t use a GUI IDE, but if we did, it would most certainly be something along the lines of [Martin]’s embedded-IDE project. We’ve always felt that most IDEs are just fancy wrappers around all the tools that we use anyway: Makefiles, diff, git, ctags, and an editor. [Martin]’s project makes them less fancy, more transparent, and more customizable, while retaining the functionality. That’s the hacker’s way — putting together proven standard tools that already work.
The code editor he uses is QScintilla, which uses clang for code completion. The “template” system for new projects? He uses …read more

They just don’t write promotional film scripts like they used to: “These men are design engineers. They are about to engage a new breed of computer, called Graphic 1, in a dialogue that will test the ingenuity of both men and machine.”
This video (embedded below) from Bell Labs in 1968 demonstrates the state of the art in “computer graphics” as the narrator calls it, with obvious quotation marks in his inflection. The movie ranges from circuit layout, to animations, to voice synthesis, hitting the high points of the technology at the time. The soundtrack, produced on their computers, naturally, …read more
An anonymous reader writes: Fedora 25 will finally be the first release for this Linux distribution — and the first tier-one desktop Linux OS at large — that is going ahead and using Wayland by default. Wayland has been talked about for years as a re… Continue reading Fedora 25 To Run Wayland By Default Instead Of X.Org Server
