This week in Linux, we got yet another vulnerability in the Linux kernel to talk about. Is it something to be scared of or is it being blown out of proportion? Stay tuned to find out. Plus we have some great news from the KDE team about a new release of Plasma and new funding to the project. Then we’ll talk about some interesting work done over on the Fedora side with Fedora Hummingbird and what that can mean for the future of Linux systems.
And two years ago, on episode 256 of TWIL, I talked about how the HDMI Forum was actively getting in the way of Open Source but apparently, it seems things might have changed and they might be finally getting it.
All of this and more on This Week in Linux, the weekly news show that keeps you up to date with what’s going on in the Linux and Open Source world. Now let’s jump right into Your Source for Linux GNews!

See how ChatGPT for Excel can help finance teams review a CFO performance workbook before it goes out.
In this demo, ChatGPT checks tie-outs across model tabs, flags issues like stale source data and revenue mismatches, creates a QA issue log, drafts owner questions, and gives a clear readiness verdict.
How h2oGPTe enables no-code Super Agent customization and auto-generated multi-agent Python code using CrewAI and LangGraph.
Enterprises often need agents tailored to specific workflows beyond built-in defaults. h2oGPTe supports two approaches: the Super Agent can be rapidly customized using system prompts, collections, and tool configurations without any code. For advanced requirements, the Agent Builder generates fully executable Python source code by accepting a natural language workflow description, selecting the right framework (CrewAI or LangGraph), and running an internal build-test-refine loop. Agents also generate standardized A2A protocol files for cross-framework interoperability.
Technical Capabilities & Resources
➤ Super Agent Customization: Configure task-specific agents using custom system prompts, collections, and tool orchestration—no code required.
🔗 https://docs.h2o.ai/enterprise-h2ogpte/guide/agents#how-it-works
➤ Agent Builder & Code Generation: Generate production-ready Python code for custom agents using CrewAI, LangGraph, or the OpenAI SDK.
🔗 https://docs.h2o.ai/enterprise-h2ogpte/guide/agents
➤ Multi-Agent Ecosystems (A2A Protocol): Automatically generate A2A communication files for agent interoperability across different frameworks.

Large Language Models (LLMs) can inherit hidden biases from their training data—including censorship bias. This talk explores how training on censored internet content can shape AI outputs, especially in Simplified Chinese datasets affected by state censorship.
Learn about a new research method comparing responses in Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese to detect censorship bias in popular AI models from Google, Meta, OpenAI, and Anthropic. The findings reveal evidence of censorship bias across multiple leading LLMs.
We’ll also discuss the wider implications for AI privacy, security, and trust, including risks of generative AI in the software supply chain and how open source communities can respond.
