Limine 11.x is out! You can find it in the usual places along with its changelog detailing breaking changes and new features/improvements!

please consider walking back the xAPIC deprecation plan

why so aggressive?

rip

did this ever work?

(no hard feelings, Luke, thanks for at least pronouncing it correctly and saying it looks cool :p)

fuck arrow lake

i made a new account for the Limine bootloader project @limine-bootloader.org !

i'm back!!!!!

doesn't Clearwater Forest use Skymont and not Darkmont? at least that's what i've read on the Chips and Cheese analysis

GNU Bash 5.3 just updated the upstream tarball silently and I could not be more disappointed, it is so deeply unserious and so deeply anti-security and against all we have learned about security issues since the XZ debacle.

Thx for the feedback @mintsuki.com, G_melo_ding!

i have a really hard time believing that NVL-U would release as a no-HT quad core in late 26/early 27, that's just insanity, and a step back compared to all current (and future, given PTL) -U SKUs; meng59739449 doesn't seem like a very precise/trustworthy source.

The ARL one is completely off the mark... And so is most of the Nova Lake one.

If CGA is with us, who can be against us?

Deltarune............................................................ tomorrow!

deltarune tomorrow

LGA1954 for NVL-HX? Did you mean for NVL-S?

Also, ARL refresh isn't here, though idk if that is intended.

or is there some more technical reason as to why Arrow Lake/800-series chipsets cannot possibly run CSM, even if someone were to backport the UEFI modules to it? (for example the legacy PIT/PIC being removed or something along those lines). Thanks and sorry for the lengthy posts!

So given that no practical x86 ISA compatibility has been broken and motherboard manufacturers seem to show interest in supporting CSM whenever possible, the question is, more specifically: did Intel basically just force mobo manufacturers to not include CSM this time around, (2/3)

I know about what Intel said in 2017, but CSM kept working just fine until 700-series chipsets that came out in 2022, with Raptor Lake, when using a supported GPU (meaning motherboard vendors must have seen an incentive in keeping it around); and obviously it still works with AMD AM5 (1/3)

while it is supported on AM5, even on 800-series boards that came out long after LGA1851...

i am quite unhappy to see backwards compatibility dating back to the original IBM PC disappear, especially when a lot of people still rely on booting their BIOS OS installations nowadays :(

@thracks.bsky.social i asked this on twitter, but could get no answer, and i was told to ask you here: is there a reason why the Arrow Lake platform *cannot* support CSM (BIOS)? i dug in BIOS images from pretty much all mobo manufacturers across the board and none support it for LGA1851...

that's starting to get really wide lol

but what does she think of x86?
