AlmaLinux announces native NVIDIA support!

For users that use the NVIDIA graphics card on their computers with Linux installed, AlmaLinux has now partnered with NVIDIA to add native support for their graphics card drivers to the distribution!

For those who are using AlmaLinux 9 and 10, you can now use the native packages that provide NVIDIA’s open source graphics driver. This is especially important for users that use advanced technology, such as CUDA. Not only that, but it’s Secure Boot ready, meaning that you won’t have to turn off Secure Boot in your UEFI settings to be able to use the driver.

The blog post can be viewed below.

The post contains the instructions that are needed to be done to take advantage of your NVIDIA graphics card on your AlmaLinux 9/10 installation.

The open source NVIDIA graphics card drivers contain the necessary features to enable CUDA and other graphics card features to make sure that you’ll be able to play games more efficiently on Linux. For applications that use CUDA, you can use your graphics card with those drivers to increase their performance.

I really hate the assholery out there on the #interwebs. If it weren’t for #fail2ban, I’d be facing even more aggressive daily denials of service attacks. I get these periods of times where shit slows down to a crawl and I get these random attacks. I’m almost certain that they’re happening on the SSH and WireGuard ports. Yes, changing the SSH port to a non-standard port does help some and I think I am going to do that when I get home to mitigate this somewhat. But it will be only a matter of time before a port scanner discovers the new SSH port and alerts the bots to the new port. I’m sure that the bots are also trying to attack WireGuard. WireGuard is damn near impossible so the bots are simply just trying to be assholes for the sake of breaking #Mastodon.

It wouldn’t surprise me if the Twitter, X, or whatever flavor of the month fuckers were behind it. WireGuard keeps no logs so I have no idea. I’d have to do a #wireshark and see what IP addresses are trying to break WireGuard. Bottom line is I think I need some more advanced routing capabilities.

I may look into adding #ZenArmor to my defensive tools. ZenArmor offers deep packet inspection. This would allow a little bit smarter blocking of the bots based on their traffic signatures. This way I whatever gets through the geoblocking, could potentially get nailed by ZenArmor. Then what gets missed by ZenArmor will get cleaned up by fail2ban. I’ll have to see how difficult ZenArmor is to configure. If it’s going to be a bitch, I’ll replace #AlmaLinux on my VPS with #OPNsense, a true router/firewall.

Alma-based HeliumOS 10 is out now with Linux kernel 6.12, Zsh as default, Btrfs with optional encryption, and Docker preinstalled—here’s my take.
https://linuxiac.com/alma-based-heliumos-10-is-out-heres-what-i-think/

#RUNBSD! But BoxyBSD now also starts to support #Linux! We're starting soon with the Linux support for already present users, offering free boxes:

* #AlmaLinux
* #Alpine
* #Debian
* #Devuan
* #CentOS
* #Fedora
* #Gentoo
* #OpenSuse
* #OpenEuler
* #RockyLinux

Just next to our core OS like #FreeBSD, #OpenBSD, #NetBSD, #MidnightBSD and #DragonflyBSD (and #illumos). This should also make the step easier to compare and test different scenarios where BSD provides a different behavior compared to Linux systems.

Thanks to @gyptazy for the implementation!

Even though EPEL is primarily used downstream by RHEL, @centos, @rockylinux, and @almalinux, it's actually part of the Fedora Project.

If you benefit from these packages, especially for your day job, consider contributing through package maintenance!
