- Desktop World Clocks Update - GNOME Shell 51.1 (2026/11/04 13:34)https://preview.redd.it/o4q72s3xllzh1.png?width=960&format=png&auto=webp&s=2766f29313adeee5c0c79e8c5bbd72e47327162d I built Desktop World Clocks because I wanted to glance at my desktop and see what time it was for the people I work with. Each clock can show a city name like “London” or a label like “UK team.” The clocks sit on the wallpaper, behind my windows, and let clicks pass through. I’ve updated the docs with the results from testing on Fedora 45. The full automated test suite passed on GNOME Shell 51.1, including the preferences window and image backgrounds. The version on GNOME Extensions already supports GNOME 49, 50, and 51. If you have it installed, you’re all set. I like the right-aligned layout because the last digits line up and I can scan the times at a glance. You can keep everything in one list or put a separate group in each corner. All the clocks share one timer and read the system time. If you try it on GNOME 51 with a second monitor, I’d love to hear whether the clocks stay where you expect when you unplug it or wake your laptop. I couldn’t verify those two things \in the test VM.

- SuperTuxKart needs our Help! Their online has gone dark (2026/11/04 09:45)Edit: I haven't vetted this with deep scrutiny. There are people in the thread that pointed out a few things that feel off. I removed the direct link just in case, but kept the blog post with the donation link still available. Edit: removed link below just in case https://preview.redd.it/2n4x9m74hkzh1.png?width=1006&format=png&auto=webp&s=c7ddf407cfec6ce6c9a69b536db8848ead856388 Link if you're interested in donating: (removed) Link to the blog post: https://blog.supertuxkart.net/2026/10/supertuxkart-online-has-gone-dark.html I just finished setting up my first SuperTuxKart server and when I when to download the game, I saw this message and it broke my heart. It's such a great game that brought many great memories to me and many others growing up. I wasn't aware that anything happened, but they said in their blog that their online service was vulnerable to the recent PHP exploit and preemptively took the service offline. I thought I would at least help by sharing the word for them. I don't have enough to fund them to their goal, but I donated. I hope if you've had good memories with this game, or just want to help an open source game survive, you'll help where you can. Fun Fact: This game has been around since August 6th, 2007 (19 years ago), and they are working on their launch their biggest update yet called "SuperTuxKart Evolution". submitted by /u/espltd8901 [link] [comments]

- The first native Linux screen extender with touch and Wi-Fi: turn your Android phone into a second monitor (30 ms lag, open source) (2026/11/03 16:50)I wanted my Android phone as a second monitor on Linux. Most tools I tried mirrored the screen into a browser tab or only worked over USB, so I built my own over the last few months. Tandem adds a real virtual monitor to your desktop. The GPU encodes it as H.264 and the phone decodes it in hardware, so you drag windows onto the phone like any other screen. - About 30 ms of lag over USB tethering, 30 to 60 ms over Wi-Fi (you barely notice it in use) - Hyprland and GNOME on Wayland, with one-command install on Arch, Ubuntu and Fedora - Encrypted, paired with a QR code Check it out here: https://saharshbaiju.github.io/tandem/ Repo: https://github.com/saharshbaiju/tandem It's free and open source. If you try it, tell me how the lag feels on your setup and what breaks. If you like it, star the repo ⭐ and share it with someone who'd use a second screen. It helps more people find it. submitted by /u/titansb-_- [link] [comments]

- Oops! Greg has another empirical view on LTS landing... (2026/11/02 22:18)To be clear, I had assumed that 7.4 would be released the first week of January if we had had a 3 week -rc1 cycle, so am planning on 7.3 to be the next LTS kernel, which would have put the 7.4.0 release on the 27th if everything had gone "well". But now the scripts say: current status: 7.4-rc1 --- 7.4 window open : 2026-10-19 7.4 window close: 2026-11-01 7.4 rc1 : 2026-11-01 <-- you are here 7.4 final : 2026-12-20 --- That being said, if people are trying to "force" stuff into 7.4 that's the best possible reason to NOT have it be the next LTS release as we have had this happen in the past and suffered greatly for it. So let's just count on 7.3.y to be the next LTS unless something really crazy comes up with it that would prevent that from happening. thanks, greg k-h submitted by /u/unixbhaskar [link] [comments]

- Working linux on redmi 3s! (2026/11/02 20:10)Finally, after three days of continuous experiments, I managed to get a working Linux on my old Redmi 3s! As you can see, it is running EndeavourOS with KDE Plasma mobile, msm8937 chipset. Of course, it is still quite buggy and laggy for now, and the performance isn't great, but it's a huge milestone. I really hope that in the future, after some optimizations, it will become fully usable submitted by /u/spectral_tears [link] [comments]
