TITLE: Corsair Crystal Series 460X RGB & 570X RGB Review ( -at -) Vortez CONTENT: Today we are to look at two new cases which feature within the new Crystal Series, the 460X RGB and 570X RGB. Both cases share a key likeness in that they both adopt tempered glass panelling as a key aspect of their design. Another similarity is that both mid-towers also take advantage of Corsair's SP120 RGB LED fans and an extensive RGB fan controller to modify colours, speeds and lighting effects.

TITLE: Speedlink Decus Respec Review ( -at -) Vortez CONTENT: In the case of the Decus Respec, the consideration is that it is a highly shaped mouse that caters for your entire hand. Though that is nothing new, it does seem like a design consideration that is being seen less often. Likely because more people are taking up the esports hype (with more of a bias towards neutral shaped/ claw type mice) rather than buying products that are more suited to their natural play style.

Fedora 25 released! =================== The Fedora Project is pleased to announce the immediate availability of Fedora 25, the next big step our journey into the containerized, modular future! Fedora is a global community that works together to lead the advancement of free and open source software. As part of the community’s mission the project delivers three editions, each one a free, Linux-based operating system tailored to meet specific use cases: Fedora 25 Atomic Host, Fedora 25 Server, and Fedora 25 Workstation. Each edition is built from a common set of base packages, which form the foundation of the Fedora operating system. As with all new versions of Fedora, Fedora 25 provides many bug fixes and tweaks to these underlying components, as well as new and enhanced packages, including: * Docker 1.12 for building and running containerized applications * Node.js 6.5, the latest version of the popular server-side JavaScript engine * Support for Rust, a faster and more stable system programming language * Multiple Python versions — 2.6, 2.7, 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5 — to help run test suites across several Python configurations, as well as PyPy, PyPy3, and Jython Fedora Workstation ------------------ Providing many of the latest open source developer and desktop tools, Fedora 25 Workstation delivers a host of new features, including the long-awaited official debut of the Wayland display server. Replacing the legacy X11 system, Wayland has been under development for several years and seeks to provide a smoother, richer experience for graphical environments and better capabilities for modern graphics hardware. To further enhance ease-of-use, Fedora 25 Workstation also features GNOME 3.22, which offers multiple file renaming, a redesigned keyboard settings tool and additional user interface improvements. Workstation users will also be pleased with the inclusion of decoding support for the MP3 media format. Fedora 25 Workstation now makes it easier to for Windows and OS X users to get started, with Fedora Media Writer serving as the default download for those operating systems. This tool helps users find and download the current Fedora release and write it to removable media, like a USB stick, allowing potential Fedora users to “test drive†the operating system from that media environment. Fedora can then be installed to their systems with the same process. For current Fedora users, the upgrade path from Fedora 24 to Fedora 25 has been simplified and streamlined, with typical upgrades taking less than 30 minutes, depending on system configuration and network speed. Upgrades can be started from the command line or from the GNOME Software tool, just like regular security and bugfix updates. For developers, beyond the new docker engine and language support included in the base Fedora 25 packages, Fedora 25 Workstation introduces improved Flatpak support. This tweak makes it easier to install, update and remove Flatpak software and enables this application packaging standard to be more user friendly at the workstation level. GNOME Shell extensions are also no longer checked for compatibility with the current version of the Shell. This was originally required because the GNOME interfaces were changing rapidly during the early days of GNOME 3. Now these interfaces have stabilized, and extensions can generally be expected to work with new releases. Fedora Server ------------- In addition to the flexible multi-role functionality provided by rolekit, Fedora 25 Server now delivers a new SELinux Troubleshooter module for Cockpit. Similar to what is available on Fedora Workstation, the module helps provide suggestions for a user when an SELinux denial is encountered, which otherwise requires log checking and manual workarounds. Fedora 25 Server also will now display SSH keys in the Cockpit system dashboard to make it easier for administrators to see what keys are connecting to a given machine. Additionally, support is now included for multi-step (including two-factor) authentication services. The FreeIPA identity management system has also been upgraded to 4.4 series, which offers a set of new features for servers deployed in an identity management role. Some of these enhancements include: * Topology management: FreeIPA web UI can now be used to visually manage topology graph for large deployments. * DNS sites: DNS management in FreeIPA now supports location-specific placement of services. * Subordinate Certificate Authorities: FreeIPA Certificate Authority now is able to create subordinate CAs to issue certificates with a specific scope. * Kerberos Authentication Indicators: Kerberos KDC now takes Authentication Indicators into account when issuing service tickets. For example, two-factor authenticated Kerberos credentials can now be required prior to obtaining tickets to a VPN service (supported by OpenConnect Server). Fedora Atomic ------------- New in Fedora 25 is the addition of Fedora 25 Atomic Host as one of Fedora’s three editions, replacing Fedora Cloud. While a Fedora Cloud Base image will continue to be available for users seeking to run workloads on a general purpose host, Fedora Atomic Host provides an optimized host designed to create and deploy container-based workloads. Fedora 25 Atomic Host is shipped in several formats, to allow users to spin up virtual machines or install Atomic Host on bare metal. To keep pace with innovations in the world of Linux containers, Fedora Atomic Host is expected to be refreshed on a two-week release cycle (with major releases coinciding with new Fedora versions) and provides an easy upgrade path to accommodate rapid application development. Fedora will also offer a docker-formatted base image, to be updated monthly along with critical security updates, for use in building Linux containers. Spins and More -------------- These are not the only parts of Fedora that are seeing changes in the release today. Our KDE spin features new and improved packages for music, video, and personal information management. Xfce includes improvements to the terminal, notifications, and power management. Mate-Compiz features an update to Mate 1.16 and a complete switch to the GTK+3 toolkit. Downloads --------- You can download the new Fedora 25 starting today! Download Fedora 25 from our Get Fedora site: * Workstation: https://getfedora.org/workstation/ * Server: https://getfedora.org/server/ * Atomic: https://getfedora.org/atomic/ Or, check out one of our popular variants: * Spins: https://spins.fedoraproject.org/ * Labs: https://labs.fedoraproject.org/ Architectures ------------- As always, Fedora is available for 32-bit ARM and 64-bit Intel architecture systems, and select Spins are also available for 32-bit x86. We're also simultaneously releasing for 64-bit ARM, Power (including a little endian variant), and s390x. For these, see: * https://alt.fedoraproject.org/alt/ Of particular note to many enthusiasts, this is the first release where we officially run on the Raspberry Pi (versions 2 and 3). More details are available in this Fedora Magazine Article: * https://fedoramagazine.org/raspberry-pi-support-fedora-25-beta/ Upgrades -------- If you're already running Fedora, you don't need to download or create a boot image. Instead, start the upgrade process from GNOME Software or using DNF System Upgrade at the command line. For instructions, refer * Upgrades: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading Documentation and Common Bugs ----------------------------- Read the full release notes for Fedora 25: * https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/25/html/Release_Notes/ Fedora 25 common bugs are documented at: * http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F25_bugs Thank You! ---------- Fedora would not be possible without the hard work of the very dedicated contributor community. Thanks to the thousands of Fedora contributors and millions of upstream developers who made this release! -- Matthew Miller, Fedora Project Leader -- Matthew Miller Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________

<http://www.eteknix.com> Corsair 570X Tempered Glass RGB Mid-Tower Chassis Review The trend for high-end tempered glass chassis is booming right now, and while it's a trend that has been in motion for a few years now, there are some great designs hitting the market at much more competitive prices than we saw a few years ago, where the words “tempered glass†were often joined with astronomical price tags. The latest from Corsair isn't cheap, but it's still within the reach of most consumers and high-end system builders without too much cause for your wallet to run and hide. What's really special about the latest from Corsair, however, is that is has tempered glass on four sides, as well as their new RGB-lit fans, so it's sure to look pretty special.

He quotes from a recent Q&A session at the recent Ubuntu Online Summit which indicates that there is now a heavy focus on developing Unity 8. Joey shows us a screenshot of what we might expect to see and quotes Canonical's Will Cooke as saying: "by 18.04 everything will be Snaps and Unity 8 all the way down." http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/11/ubuntu-1704-zesty-unity-8 Michael Larabel of Phoronix and Marius Nestor of Softpedia wrote similar posts about how future releases of Ubuntu and Unity 8 will look: * Unity 8 & All Snaps-Based Ubuntu Still Expected For 18.04 LTS -http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Ubuntu-17.04-Unity-8-Snaps-Talk * Ubuntu 17.04 to Offer an Evolved Unity 8 Session As More Apps Will Run as Snaps - http://news.softpedia.com/news/ubuntu-17-04-to-offer-an-evolved-unity-8-session-as-more-apps-will-run-as-snaps-510281.shtml === Linux Kernel 4.9 Lands in Ubuntu 17.04's Proposed Repositories, Based on RC5 === Marius Nestor of Softpedia informs us that the recently released 4.9 RC5 kernel is available in the proposed channel of Ubuntu 17.04 which is due for release in April 2017. He says that the kernel should land in the stable repositories soon but predicts that Ubuntu 17.04 might actually ship with a later 4.10 kernel. http://linux.softpedia.com/blog/linux-kernel-4-9-lands-in-ubuntu-17-04-s-proposed-repositories-based-on-rc5-510282.shtml === This new Ubuntu Linux laptop has a 4K screen and Nvidia Pascal GPU === Agam Shah, writing for TechWorld, briefly reviews System76's 15.6-inch Oryx Pro laptop with a 4K screen which is preloaded with either Ubuntu 16.04 or 16.10, and is priced between US $1,499 and $7,012 depending on configuration.

They highlight some of the problems and in their conclusion write: "Kubuntu 16.10 Yakkety Yak is nothing to be proud of, but it is an okay Plasma release that has redeemed a whole generation of failed distributions in the past year or so." http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/kubuntu-yakkety-yak.html == Featured Audio and Video == === S09E38 - Jon's Second Breakfast - Ubuntu Podcast === It's Episode Thirty-Eight of Season-Nine of the Ubuntu Podcast!

They highlight some of the problems and in their conclusion write: "Kubuntu 16.10 Yakkety Yak is nothing to be proud of, but it is an okay Plasma release that has redeemed a whole generation of failed distributions in the past year or so." http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/kubuntu-yakkety-yak.html == Featured Audio and Video == === S09E38 - Jon's Second Breakfast - Ubuntu Podcast === It's Episode Thirty-Eight of Season-Nine of the Ubuntu Podcast!

Corsair Crystal Series 570X RGB Tempered Glass Chassis Review ------------------------------------------------------------ http://us2.campaign-archive2.com/?u=bfb2b902b5fb045ad6f841f98&id=21e6e07502&e=872093acb5 http://www.kitguru.net Corsair Crystal Series 570X RGB Tempered Glass Chassis Review The Corsair Crystal 570X is an impressive new case from Corsair that uses tempered glass on all four main panels and then tops off the looks with three Corsair SP120 RGB fans at the front. These LED fans are available as an add-in kit for an existing case in a pack that includes three fans and a controller unit at a cost somewhere north of £50. Initial impressions of Crystal 570X are mighty impressive and also raise an obvious question as to whether or not Corsair has managed to include dust filters in a case that appears to be made entirely of glass. The answer, happily, is yes.

Marcus, thanks for this notice. Quick question as I am a neophyte now running 13.2. Once I upgrade to Leap 42.1 do I need to do anything to continue receiving updates from this list? Currently I do see security notices for 13.2 and 42.1 (zypper commands) plus a lot of other releases. Will those notices continue to come to me in my e-mail without my having to make any changes -- the only difference being that the notices for 13.2 will no longer appear? Am I understanding this correctly? Thanks. ) Gil On Thu, 17 Nov 2016 09:20:21 +0100 Marcus Meissner wrote: > Hi, > > With the release of openSUSE Leap 42.2 the SUSE support of openSUSE > 13.2 will be ending in 2 months, around January 16th. > > Please check https://en.opensuse.org/Lifetime for lifetime > information. > > Ciao, Marcus for the openSUSE Maintenance Team -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-security-announce+unsubscribe ( -at -) opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-security-announce+help ( -at -) opensuse.org

For years, computer cases have been made mostly of metal. A few years ago, several companies began to innovate and use alternative materials such as Tempered Glass. Those cases were typically limited editions and fairly expensive. Tempered Glass gives cases an unobstructed view of the internal components, while providing a sleek and high end feel to the case. Like most companies, Corsair has developed a new line of cases utilizing Tempered Glass panels, the first case from the new line is the Crystal 460X, it has two Tempered Glass panels, one on the side and one on the front. The next case in the new Corsair Crystal line is the Crystal 570X, it is a higher end version of the Crystal 460X.

** TECHSPOT ------------------------------------------------------------ ** ZenBook 3 Review: Asus made a faster MacBook that runs Windows ------------------------------------------------------------ ** http://www.techspot.com/review/1284-asus-zenbook-3/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Of all the ultrathin laptops I've reviewed, the ZenBook 3 is most like Apple's MacBook from a design perspective. It packs a 12.5" display, an edge-to-edge keyboard, and a single USB-C port for charging and all connectivity. Where the ZenBook pulls away from the MacBook is on the inside, packing a lot more processing punch. Thank you.
