• Davinci resolve on Chromebook

  Again I might be wrong, since I have not looked into it long. But I think that the GPU support in Crostini is only for hardware acceleration. Not for video decoding. I think they use (https://virgil3d.github.io/) which has no video adapter functionality. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Android 13 virtualization lets Pixel 6 run Windows 11, Linux distributions

  I'd assume that it doesn't, while passthrough exist on KVM, it still requires the actual drivers to be installed on the emulated OS and mobile handset drivers are usually proprietary blobs. The APIs could be translated to a generic driver that works on the OSs though, something like https://virgil3d.github.io/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Worthwhile to virtualize a GPU with ESXi or just plop in a dedicated GPU?

  I learned recently that there is a project for QEMU: https://virgil3d.github.io/ This does about what you are asking for, has a different approach but is probably not as performant. Source: about 2 years ago

• I made an application to run Windows Apps on Linux using a VM as if they are native applications

  GPU paravirtualization of 3D acceleration is still not really yet available in any virtualization/emulation platform. So for now we've stuck with passthrough. Source: about 2 years ago

• Any possibility of running Civilization IV?

  A guest in vmd(8) may enter 32-bit mode, but has no graphical display; Civilization IV would need a graphical display with 3D acceleration. VirGL provides such acceleration for Linux guests in qemu, but doesn't exist in vmd. Source: over 2 years ago

• Running workloads at the edge with MicroK8s

  MicroK8s is a lightweight, batteries included Kubernetes distribution by Canonical designed for running edge workloads which also happens to be developer-friendly and a great choice for building your own homelab. The following lab covers how to install and run MicroK8s on your own edge node running Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, deploy the NGINX web service and exposing your NGINX website to the Internet with SSL/TLS enabled... - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

  In this open class, we will get hands-on with the new course Distributing ROS2 Apps with Snaps offered by Canonical - Developers of ubuntu), you’ll learn the basics of snap creation for ROS & ROS2 applications. Source: about 1 year ago

• What happened in IoT last two months? Here are some headlines I found interesting

  Ubuntu Core is an app-centric embedded operating system based on Ubuntu. Developers can focus on building apps while Canonical provides and maintains low-level components. Ubuntu Core enables advanced security capabilities out-of-the-box, and Canonical supports devices running Ubuntu Core for up to ten years, delivering security patches and bug fixes.

• What happened in IoT this April? Here are some headlines I found interesting from last month

  This month, NVIDIA finally open-sourced kernel modules for their GPUs. With what was by now a much-awaited transition towards the landscape of open-source software, the silicon vendor released the kernel driver under a dual MIT/GPL license. Cindy Goldberg, VP of Silicon alliances at Canonical, noted how the new NVIDIA open-source GPU kernel modules simplify installs and increase security for Ubuntu consumers,...
