Linux 6.10 Preps A Kernel Panic Screen - Sort Of A "Blue Screen of Death"16:51 While systemd 255 last year introduced a "blue screen of death" inspired solution with systemd-bsod for presenting logged error messages full-screen, it's not appropriate for all errors. Systemd-bsod can work out for presenting full-screen messages in case of boot failures and other problems where user-space is alive.

Set to be introduced now with Linux 6.10 is a parallel "blue s… Intel Compute Runtime 24.13.29138.7 Brings Improved OpenCL/OpenGL Sharing16:51 As the first new release to Intel's open-source Compute Runtime stack in about one month for this OpenCL and Level Zero compute support, Intel Compute Runtime 24.13.29138.7 was released this morning with much improved OpenCL/OpenGL sharing and interoperability on Linux, out-of-the-box support for the Xe kernel graphics driver, new optimizations, and many other changes...
