    324: Secure Boot Linux issues, EU's Chat Control law, Linux Mint 22.2, Ubuntu Touch, & more Linux news
    Aug 17 2025
    video: https://youtu.be/5T1Frk70LTQ Comment on the TWIL Forum (https://thisweekinlinux.com/forum) This week in Linux, we have a lot of news to cover. We have some good news and some bad news. Well, people like to start with bad news first, I guess. So there is a fiasco happening with Secure Boot and how it may be affecting Linux users. Also, the EU is proposing a law that is pretty close to being passed that is very scary and a step towards mass surveillance. We'll talk about that. Then also we have some good news and that the Pebble watches are back and we have some beta releases from Linux Mint and Ubuntu Touch as well as SyncThing is back, which is a really cool tool to sync your files across multiple devices. All of this and more on This Week in Linux, the weekly news show that keeps you up to date with what's going on in the Linux and open source world.

  • 321: Intel nixes Clear Linux, 6% Market Share, Arch Malware, EU FOSS Funding & more Linux news

    321: Intel nixes Clear Linux, 6% Market Share, Arch Malware, EU FOSS Funding & more Linux news
    Jul 26 2025
    video: https://youtu.be/ucGrNLdsql0 Comment on the TWIL Forum (https://thisweekinlinux.com/forum) This week in Linux, we've got a bit of bad news from Intel as they abruptly ended Clear Linux out of no where and Arch Linux warned users that malware was found in the AUR. It's not all bad this week though because Wayback is back on the show with the first preview release for keeping X11 desktops alive in our future Wayland powered world. Plus according to one source, Linux usage is even higher than we already thought it was. A couple of episodes ago I reported that we broke the 5% threshold on the US desktop market based on StatCounter data but according to one source it's already climbed passed 6%. What source you ask? The analytics of U.S. federal government websites. Speaking of governments, GitHub is trying to get EU lawmakers to scale Germany’s Sovereign Tech Fund into a EU wide program to fund critical open‑source projects. Also for some more good news, we're so close to hitting 100,000 subscribers on the channel, if you want to help please consider subscribing. All of this and more on This Week in Linux, the weekly news show that keeps you up to date with what’s going on in the Linux and Open Source world.
