Members of the open source community are working on a new security-focused project for the Linux kernel. Named Linux Kernel Runtime Guard (LKRG), this is a loadable kernel module that will perform ...

I have been running Debian a few years now but haven't really dug into the proper way to handle kernel modules in regards to auto-loading/unloading (i'll get to this) and the setup of modules.conf. I ...

NVIDIA announced its complete transition to open-source GPU kernel modules, aiming to replace closed-source drivers entirely. Future versions will enhance GeForce and Workstation Linux support, with ...
