Future improvements coming to APERTIS

By Sjoerd Simons, Guy Lunardi of Collabora
Time: 14:30 Room: S5

Abstract

Tremendous innovations have been happening upstream the past few months and now is a great time for Bosch projects to take advantage of those. APERTIS is a great vehicle for that, with the confidence that Bosch is standing behind the operating system and infrastructure delivering it.The speakers assume that the audience is fully aware of the importance of understanding your entire software stack. This presentation will touch on core updates, security features, the new PipeWire audio server, open source graphics drivers, and more. If we need more time, the APERTIS will be available throughout the day in the MarketPlace all day.
