Linux 6.11 Release – Notable changes, Arm, RISC-V and MIPS architectures

Linux 6.11 release

Linux 6.11 is out with Linus Torvalds’ announcement on the Linux kernel mailing list (LKML): I’m once again on the road and not in my normal timezone, but it’s Sunday afternoon here in Vienna, and 6.11 is out. The last week was actually pretty quiet and calm, which is nice to see. The shortlog is below for anybody who wants to look at the details, but it really isn’t very many patches, and the patches are all pretty small. Nothing in particular stands out – the biggest patch in here is for Hyper-V Confidential Computing documentation. Anyway, with this, the merge window will obviously open tomorrow, and I already have 40+ pull requests pending. That said, exactly _because_ I’m on the road, it will probably be a fairly slow start to the merge window, since not only am I on my laptop, there’s OSS Europe starting tomorrow and then the […]

ASUS X7433RE-IM-A 3.5-Inch motherboard features Intel Atom X7433RE Amston Lake SoC, dual Ethernet, three display interfaces

X7433RE IM A

ASUS has launched the X7433RE-IM-A, a 3.5-inch industrial motherboard powered by an Intel Atom X7433RE Amston Lake SoC. The processor supports Intel Deep Learning Boost (DL Boost) and Intel AVX2 SIMD instructions to enhance AI processing and accelerate workloads at the IoT edge. The X7433RE-IM-A single-board computer supports up to 16GB of DDR5 4800MHz In-Band ECC memory via a SO-DIMM slot. The Intel Atom X7433RE processor, with integrated Intel UHD Graphics, supports up to three 4K displays through HDMI 2.0, DisplayPort 1.4, and LVDS/eDP 1.2. For storage, the board includes a SATA 3.0 interface and networking is implemented through two Ethernet controllers – Intel i210IT and i226IT (2.5GbE) – with WOL/PXE support. Previously, we covered the ASRock Industrial SBC-262M-WT, another Intel Atom X7433RE Amston Lake-based 3.5-inch motherboard. We also wrote about other 3.5-inch boards like the ECS ADLN-IE1S, Jetway MF32, ECS RK3568-IS, MSI MS-98M3, and several others. You can check […]

NanoPi Zero2 is a tiny headless Arm Linux computer with Gigabit Ethernet, a USB port, and an M.2 Key-E socket for WiFi

NanoPi Zero2

FriendlyELEC NanoPi Zero2 is one of the world’s smallest Arm Linux computers with the 45x45mm board featuring a Rockchip RK3528A quad-core Cortex-A53 processor, up to 2GB RAM, microSD and eMMC flash module sockets for storage, a Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 jack, an M.2 socket for WiFi, a USB Type-A port, and a 30-pin GPIO FPC connector for expansion. When I went to find more information about the earlier NanoPi Zero, I quickly realized… it did not exist, and the closest thing we have is the ZeroPi released in 2019 with an Allwinner H3 Cortex-A7 processor and an even smaller 40x40mm form factor.  The NanoPi Zero2 comes with a 64-bit processor, more memory, and optional support for an M.2 WiFi module among other improvements. It’s designed for headless applications since there’s no video output/display interface. NanoPi Zero2 specifications: SoC – Rockchip RK3528A CPU – Quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 @ 2.0 GHz GPU – […]

AAEON introduces NXP i.MX 8M Plus Pico-ITX SBC and mini PC designed for Edge AI industrial applications

AAEON PICO-IMX8PL Pico ITX SBC

AAEON PICO-IMX8PL is a Pico-ITX SBC built around the NXP i.MX 8M Plus Edge AI processor which the company has also released in an enclosed form as the SRG-IMX8PL mini-PC. Both are designed for industrial AIoT/IoT applications. The SBC features various connectivity options including dual Gigabit Ethernet, Wi-Fi/Bluetooth, 4G LTE, CAN-FD, Audio, LVDS, and support for popular protocols like Modbus, MQTT, and OPCUA. Whereas the mini PC sacrifices some I/O interfaces and the LVDS display output to enable wall or DIN rail mounting. Both products have wide operating temperature ranges, fanless designs, and compact form factors making them ideal for deployment in harsh industrial environments. All these features make this device useful for industrial automation, transportation, and digital signage.

DietPi 9.7 and Armbian 24.8 released with improved support for Rockchip, Amlogic, and Allwinner SBCs

DietPi 9.7 Orange Pi 5 Plus

Armbian and DietPi are two separate projects that provide Linux-based OS images optimized for Arm-based single board computers. The last time we had a look at both projects was in June with the release of Armbian 24.5.1 and DietPi 9.4, but there have been several updates since then including the releases of the latest DietPi 9.7 and Armbian 24.8 Yelt just a few days ago. So let’s check out the latest changes. DietPi 9.7 DietPi is a lightweight Debian-based Linux distribution for SBCs and server systems that ships as a minimal image but users can install any packages they want, including the ones required for desktop environment, to match the requirements of the applications. It’s notably used by the Linamp project – a Raspberry Pi 4-based project that brings WinAMP to real life – that we covered a few weeks ago. DietPi 9.7 was released on August 25, 2024 with […]
