📰 Radeon Linux Driver Patches For Next-Gen Hardware Point To New NPU Integration

Back in November AMD began posting open-source Linux graphics driver patches for some next-gen graphics IP. Those IP block patches were for MMHUB, PSP, and other blocks making up modern AMD GPUs. The GFXHUB patch pointed it to being part of the GFX12 / RDNA4 family. Out today are new patches for enabling the SMU15 IP and an interesting takeaway there is some apparent NPU integration for future Radeon graphics...

Dell XPS with Ubuntu Option Due Soon

Dell has announced the return of its XPS laptop line at CES 2026, introducing redesigned 14-inch and 16-inch models, the former of which will be available to buy pre-loaded with Ubuntu later this year. The tech company retired the XPS branding in last January as part of a marketing revamp of its product lines. Inspiron, Latitude, and Precision devices became “Dell,” “Dell Pro,” and “Dell Pro Max” respectively, while XPS models were re-badged “Dell Premium”. But you can’t keep a good brand down for long, and the XPS has returned — with some notable design changes in tow. The company […]

Утечка BootROM-ключей Sony Playstation 5

В открытый доступ попал архив, в котором были найдены BootROM-ключи для игровой приставки Sony Playstation 5, применяемые для расшифровки и верификации начального загрузчика. При помощи данных ключей можно сформировать собственный загрузчик, успешно проходящий верификацию, и применить его для запуска собственного варианта прошивки. Содержимое BootROM не может быть изменено программно или через обновление прошивки, поэтому уязвимость рассматривается как аппаратная проблема, которая останется во всех уже выпущенных приставках. Устранение проблемы возможно только через выпуск новых APU с новыми BootROM-ключами. Ранее похожие проблемы с ключами уже возникали приставках Nintendo Switch и Sony Playstation 3.
