  • Alberto Garcia: Keeping your system-wide configuration files intact after updating SteamOS

    Introduction

    [08:30] schestowitz[TR2]

    SteamOS 3.6 introduced a new mechanism to decide what to to keep after an OS update, and the system now keeps a list of configuration files that are allowed to be kept in the new version. The idea is that only the modifications that are known to be important for the correct operation of the system are applied, and everything else is discarded< [08:30] schestowitz[TR2] sup class="fn">1.

    [10:24] schestowitz[TR2]

    Another noteworthy improvement is the activation of POSIX Access Control Lists and file system security attributes on devices with larger flash memory sizes. Moreover, kernel support for Multipath TCP has been enabled on devices with greater storage capacity.

    [10:24] schestowitz[TR2]

    Regarding wireless networking, OpenWrt 24.10 further refines WiFi6 (802.11ax) and adds initial, although still limited, support for WiFi7 (802.11be).

    Those seeking advanced security features will be pleased to learn that LibreOffice 25.2 introduces new privacy functions and, more specifically, the ability to remove all personal information from a document, thus preventing unintentional leaks of timestamps, editing data, and other personal details.

    Apart from that, each main component of the office suite has gotten its fair share of updates. Here are the most important ones.
