@paoloredaelli at the first wave of Snapdragon X Elite, folks from @tuxedocomputers promised Linux laptop with ARM. That didn't happen.
Super sad, given the chip is great, and non Mac ARM laptops failed due to Windows compatibility, not performance.
We can only hope someone will pick the mantle and deliver performance ARM laptop.

We are still working on it, just takes time. There will be a news item out soon about our progress and the issues. -

Just wondering, I know it takes a lot of work, but once bootstrapped the #Linux support for the first #qualcomm #snapdragonxelite will it be easier to support the 2nd generation CPU?

Once the device tree is officially in mainline, things get easier. -

Once the device tree is officially in mainline, things get easier.@tuxedocomputers Is there any roadmap or time frame? Searching about it I found news of may 2024 stating that #Qualcomm was working on "full Linux support"… 😭 @jarekrozanski

In realtà non ho freddo, e non è così freddo qui, ma mi sono solo ghiacciati i piedi.

Active Probe Reaches 3 GHz
When you think of a scope probe, you usually think of what is basically a wire with a spring hook and an attenuator. Those are passive probes. [Kerry Wong] shows off a pre-release active probe that sidesteps some problems with those ordinary passive probes.
The trick is that passive probes have input capacitance that interferes with very high-frequency signals. They also tend to have less noise. Although the probe isn’t on the market yet, it is set to debut at a price lower than competitive probes. Still, be warned. The reason you don’t see them more often is that $1,000 is relatively inexpensive for an active probe.
Because the probe is pretty hefty, it comes with a tripod that can hold it while you use it. [Kerry] connects some probe adapters to a PCB with two square wave oscillators. Square waves are a good test waveform because they have odd-numbered harmonics that rise well above the target frequency.
The probe adapters are a little longer than you might like, which causes some ringing on the input signal. However, if you compare the results to a standard passive probe, you’ll quickly see the value of the active probe setup.
You can save some money if you roll your own, of course. Most of the ones we’ve seen don’t quite make 3 GHz, though.

I gotta say, it's a lot easier to encrypt on Linux than it used to be. I was all ready to read man pages, but it's literally just a checkbox and give it a password.

We in here encrypting. I've been lazy about encryption in the past, but I had a laptop stolen a while back, and it sucked having to reset all my passwords, so all new computers and USB disks are getting encrypted. I got the parts for my new computer today and I'm encrypting the drive I'm using to backup the current system as we speak. The system itself will also get LUKS.
