DXVK 3.0 Released: Major Shader Overhaul, Vulkan 1.4 Required, and Significant Memory Savings

Software 44501 Published 2026-06-25 22:36 by Philipp Esselbach 0

DXVK 3.0 just shipped, delivering a complete shader compiler rewrite, descriptor heap support, and a mandatory Vulkan 1.4 requirement to run Windows DirectX titles on Linux. The update fixes previously unresolvable graphical bugs, offloads shader compilation to worker threads, and cuts roughly a gigabyte of system memory usage in games like Overwatch and God of War. You'll need modern drivers to run it and Nvidia users specifically need version 595.84+ to activate the new descriptor heap binding model. While AMD RDNA1/2 owners on Windows are advised to stick with version 2.x, the release firmly cements DXVK's status as the engine driving modern Linux and Steam Deck compatibility.

Dell XPS 14, Star Fox Switch 2, Gigabyte X870E, Google Home Speaker, and TerraMaster NAS Reviews

Reviews 52674 Published 2026-06-25 07:24 by Philipp Esselbach 0

Here is a roundup of today's reviews. Dell finally shipped the XPS 14, and as of right now, it brings back that premium chassis with a Tandem OLED panel that genuinely feels years ahead of the competition. Star Fox runs at sixty frames per second on the Switch title, and that feels solid enough. Testers remember early handheld consoles from 2018, where battery degradation was brutal, but this new hardware sidesteps that old pain entirely. That hardware patience pays off, though the new Gigabyte X870E motherboard still costs considerably more than six hundred dollars, and for what it's worth, the Google Home speaker handles Gemini conversations smoothly alongside a TerraMaster NAS that ships with OpenClaw AI tools right out of the box.

Liquorix Kernel 7.0.15 Released: Freeze Fix, Scheduler Swaps, and Lower Latency

Debian 10967 Ubuntu 7131 Arch Linux 970 Published 2026-06-25 07:04 by Philipp Esselbach 0

Liquorix Kernel 7.0.15 is live, built on the Linux 7.0.13 base to deliver targeted latency improvements and a critical hard freeze fix. The release abandons the mq-deadline block scheduler in favor of kyber and bfq, while cutting CPU timeslices down to 2ms for tighter interactivity. Liquorix also disables split-lock detection and adjusts virtual memory watermarks to smooth out latency spikes during demanding workloads. You can grab the updated kernel immediately using their automated curl installer, which pushes fresh binaries to Debian, Ubuntu, and Archl Linux within hours of the release.

MySQL, libxml2, Perl, FFmpeg updates for Ubuntu

Ubuntu 7131 Published 2026-06-25 06:47 by Philipp Esselbach 0

Ubuntu released security updates for MySQL, libxml2, Perl, and FFmpeg. These fixes address serious bugs that let unauthenticated attackers crash databases or run malicious code by exploiting TLS handling, XML parsing errors, symlink manipulation, and memory management issues across multiple affected packages. libxml2 crashes remain a risk on 22.04 and 24.04 systems, where that DTD parsing bug might feel buried in the logs but can still let code slip through. Older Perl installations still need the Archive::Tar and regex patches to prevent file overwrites or heap overflows, and running a standard system update now closes these doors before remote exploitation becomes possible.

[USN-8457-2] MySQL vulnerabilities
[USN-8456-1] libxml2 vulnerability
[USN-8467-1] Perl vulnerabilities
[USN-8466-1] Perl DBI module vulnerabilities

Libmatio, PostgreSQL 13, cloud-init, yelp, and libhttp-daemon-perl updates for Debian

Debian 10967 Published 2026-06-25 06:29 by Philipp Esselbach 0

As of right now, Debian maintains a steady stream of emergency patches, and this latest batch tackles roughly six distinct vulnerabilities across major Linux packages. Longtime system watchers notice a familiar pattern of technical debt piling up across database tools, yet administrators must return to prioritizing this specific upgrade before the next wave of exploits surfaces. Roughly equivalent trouble waits in cloud-init, where broken repository links stop machines from grabbing security updates, while yelp, libhttp-daemon-perl, and libmatio open doors for sandbox escapes, arbitrary command execution, and remote code execution.
