Intel Announces It's Shutting Down Clear Linux

Intel got left behind. TSMC makes their best chips because they can’t. They missed the AI boom. Only the paranoid survive.

I hope Lip-Bu Tan turns Intel around.

Amiga is still going, while Clear Linux, Itanic, 32 bit x86, and macOS on x86 are dying.

Intel really needs to focus on fixing their CPUs. CPUs that degrade, that are unstable, that take literally 200 plus watts, that have security issues are not appreciated.

"Still going" by some definition I suppose. I'm sure there's a few Itanium servers still in production too!

You're not wrong about the CPU's though. Mozilla recently had to disable crash reports for 13th and 14th gen because they're being swamped.. the EU heat wave seems to be tipping a ton of these chips over the edge.

AMD should fork it and carry it forward!

I'm content as long as they keep maintaining VTune.

It's one of the main reasons I like Intel chips for my workloads.

They have to, they don't have other profiling tools.

Corporations, more often than not, are parasitic, good weather friends, and a let-down to FLOSS. They don't pay their fair share to support critical bits and they don't sustain projects with stability or usability when release things or take them on themselves. Their employee get performance points for adding new features, not making things usable, simple, or polished.

Intel’s been pretty good with Linux driver support, though, no? I mean, certainly better than Nvidia.
kadoban•4h ago
Intel is a huge contributor to linux, yeah. Drivers and way more have been done there, and I doubt all of that has dried up.
burnt-resistor•4h ago
True that to both. There are exceptions here and there. The other extreme is FOSS-washing as a marketing gimmick like NanoKVM chaps my posterior.
pjmlp•25m ago
With exception of those PowerVR based GPUs if I remember correctly, and for a long time their OpenGL driver were famous for lying about hardware capabilities, thus surprising devs with software rendering.
vondur•5h ago
That's too bad. Clear Linux was super optimized. I'd hope someone would continue doing the tweaks to the kernel that they did.
ksec•4h ago
Not a bad thing and I would argue should have done it way earlier. Intel needs to focus. And so far Intel still feels extremely bloated.
