Applications and Porting / Re: [DEV] An attempt to package chromium for ppc64le in the official Fedora DNF repo

I had the problem with the last update, but even after the update, it still didn't work. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Chromium, but the bug still persisted. I then decided to delete all the Chromium files, then uninstall and reinstall again, and this time it worked. So perhaps the problem was with some additional file that Chromium uses to work.

I am running v138.0.7204.157-1.fc43 on Fedora 43 and it works fine

guys there is a problem after the last Chromium update, after it opens the main window, it crashes, exits and closes everything. I use it on Debian 12 so the problem is precisely the last update. I think the same will happen if you update to the latest version of Fedora. So be careful and I hope that Raptor is already aware of the problem to fix the bug.

What version do you have issue with?

Well I am trying to chase down a big with glycin-rs library that cause Loupe fail to open any image file. This bug has been around for few years on Fedora. I'm wondering if you could let me know if this app actually work at all if you are using Ubuntu or Debian. Great thanks in advance

General CPU Discussion / Re: Power11 announced by IBM

I seriously doubt there will ever be a Power CPU that costs less than $500. In fact, I think we'll see further increases across the board, unfortunately. The tariffs will especially hurt us Europeans, who will have to pay who knows how much more to buy from America... The overall situation isn't good at all...

Well, hopefully the new raptor systems are much cheaper than the price hikes the power9 offerings had

IMHO it depends on the outcome of the tariffs war.

If we put aside the pricing, I think we should have learnt by now that the key success lies in how well the software supports the hardware, that is the accessibility to the hardware. Therefore I hope there is a cheap 2C or 4C P11 that would cost less than $500 USD.
