Rekonq 2.3.0: the toddler continues to improve

first_main_article” class=”article readability=”48″>

You know that as ‘kdeero’ I am I have a weakness for following rekonq development, although it is not my primary browser. However, this new version comes with more news of their numbers might suggest. Do you want to know?

First, as is the norm lately, rekonq 2.3.0 returns the user losing some features from version 2.0, and this time we talk about the side panels bookmarks and history . But there’s more, of course.

Other developments are very welcome principle support for KDE Activities , session manager (!) or the introduction of traffic icon on pages encryption (SSL), the style of the great (showing a shield with information instead of the classic favicon, which is relegated to the tab), but there is still work to do in that area.

Rekonq

2.3.0 also improves private browsing , creating bookmarks directly from the address bar, according to its developer, following the “style Opera” and earn s upport for Appmenu Qt / KDE (you know, the application menu in a little button in the window).

What do you think? And yet we allow ourselves a little something than another. not to mention bug fixes relevant to each new version. I can only say that this browser development has hit an adrenaline important since Blue Systems will sponsor the project, which is appreciated.

If you want to try rekonq

2.3.0 I recommend going to the usual channels that you provide your distro (openSUSE already; rapidísmo, hear). Either that or compile the source code.

The ‘welter Ubuntu’ which continues

class=”article first_main_article” readability=”59″>

by now someone thinks that Ubuntu still is not the star of the blockbuster of the moment-GNU/Linux- talking about, not their fault, because we have a “production” worthy of the most convoluted David Lynch. Every day, new information, so it is difficult to track, which snowball that grows and grows as downhill wheel. Come with a summary of the latest .

ubuntu wallpaper be by xylomon 01 500x281 The welter Ubuntu that continues

started with that Mark Shuttleworth article published yesterday in his blog late at night, on returning once again to discuss the issue rolling release . Broadly speaking, the boss of Canonical seems to give in to the idea, proposing the following (again, roughly):

Improving

Incremental LTS release (eg, 12.04.1, 12.04.2, etc.) during the first two years (until a new LTS) so that any user can get on the car with guaranteed stability but with updated software.

Crop

substantially support period semiannual versions, which initially would remain, but spending less resources in its preparation.
Convert images daily in the rolling release installation method, since their quality has improved considerably in recent times.

Ubuntu SDK and using QML . We talk about the typical calculator, calendar, among others (anyone said Gwibber?). Something that is done to improve the user experience, multi-device-compatibility, but has a clear effect, we assume, will become more evident as time passes: typical applications without GNOME. How far will it arrive? That is more difficult to predict. You can see the first screenshots in the blog of Michael Hall, an employee of Canonical.

To end this hodgepodge of data we will Google+, where armed has a good discussion of Mir , in which you can see debating Canonical employees, but also the same with Aaron Mark Shuttleworth Seigo of KDE. No reviews entered this time, I recommend those interested to take a look.

For now no more to say … Sorry, there is much more to tell, but it would be like swallowing a hit Ikea meatballs, so we leave here. But who enjoy these follones have one more for you: Dear Mark Shuttleworth : please tell the truth . What Adam Williamson refers to Red Hat? At that according Shuttleworth was before the Unity the GNOME Shell , which is not true according to Williamson (do not know if anyone would be interested in this, but here it is) . The saga continues.

Linux continues to dominate the world of supercomputers

class=”article first_main_article” readability=”41″>Although

is pending in PCs, Linux is the absolute king in supercomputing, ruling 469 of the 500 most powerful systems in the world , according to the latest list of November 2012, as indicated our fellow MuyComputer.

Using Linux continues to grow in the global supercomputing increasing its share since entering the first Linux system on the list in June 1998.

The latest list, no less than 469 of the top-500 is used with UNIX in second place but steady decline and others like Windows, ruling 3 sets of the 500 most powerful supercomputers in the world .

If a Linux

Android has a market share of 70 percent smartphones, iOS reaches 60 percent in electronic tablets and Windows client PCs sweep at 90 percent, surpasses Linux in supercomputing with 93.8 percent, a new record in the sector. We leave you with the progression of Linux systems, power and number of cores:

Linux continues to dominate the market for supercomputers

class=”article first_main_article” readability=”49″>

TOP500 list that appears every six months has again confirmed the dominant role of Linux in the market for supercomputers, where 90% of them make use of any distribution or Linux-based development .

IBM BlueGene 500x377 Linux still dominates the market for supercomputers

world’s most powerful supercomputer is the Sequoia, an IBM BlueGene / Q installed in the Department of Energy’s Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in the United States, which achieved a score of 16.32 in tests Linpack PetaFLOPS thanks to their use of no less than 1,572,864 cores. Your operating system? Linux, of course .

The second position was occupied by the K Fujitsu Computer, Japan, installed at the RIKEN Advanced Science Institute for Computational (AICS) in Kobe. Achieved 10.51 PetaFLPS and uses SPARC64 705,024. Although the hardware is designed by Sun / Oracle, the operating system is Linux, not Solaris or OpenSolaris .

In fact, as discussed in ZDNet, Solaris nor in the list , while OpenSolaris is only used in a system. Microsoft itself achieves a somewhat better position, and there are 2 supercomputers that use Windows HPC 2008. The only system that makes some shade to Linux is another derivative of Unix, AIX, which is present in 22 of these systems, 4.4% of the world’s fastest supercomputers.
