Canonical Outs New Linux Kernel Security Patch for All Supported Ubuntu Releases

Marius Nestor tells us that Canonical have released updates on the kernels 3.13, 4.4 and 4.15 for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, 16.04 LTS and 18.04 LTS. He provides details of 11 CVEs fixed with this update, with a request for 12.04 ESM users to update to the HWE kernel so as to use the fixed 3.13 kernel., but all users should update as soon as possible.

Xfce Picks Up Support For Monitor Profiles

Michael Larabel in a short post lets us know that a new release of xfce4-settings is out. The update includes support for display profiles, allowing to easily save display configurations. The tool uses the monitor’s EDID data to uniquely identify devices so as to simplify restoration of configurations. A link to the announcement is provided.

LibreOffice Qt5 Integration Sees Further Improvements

Michael Larabel reminds us that for the past year LibreOffice has used a Qt5 interface plug-in for a better integration in Qt-based desktops. He focuses on how this has been improved, but we won't really see it until LibreOffice 6.2 comes out early next year.

Valve Updates SteamVR AMD Requirements, Recommends Using PPAs On Ubuntu

Michael Larabel writes that Valve has updated their Linux graphics requirements for using SteamVR. They now require the proprietary 387 driver (or newer) for NVIDIA cards, though for those with AMD cards the requirement is RadeonSI/RADV from Mesa 17.3 (or higher) as well as a 4.13 kernel (or higher). To utilize VR direct mode for the best experience using the open-source AMD driver you'll need X.Org Server 1.20, Linux 4.15 and Mesa 18.2, which is achieved with Ubuntu 18.10. However, Michael provides some recommendations for users who want to use older releases of Ubuntu.

Mesa 18.2.2 Released With RADV GTA V Fix, Vulkan Additions & D3D9 Patches

Michael Larabel informs of some notable changes in this latest Mesa release. In addition to improved graphic drivers is support for protected memory properties, an increase in the number of temp registers, and that Polaris PCI ID is now available. There are various other fixes with more details in the linked announcement.
