PC Engines APU modules are no longer being produced. Because of that, there is no most recent or recommended APU model anymore, all APU1/2/3/4 platforms are effectively end-of-life. That said, we still have a few remaining units available in our online shop:
https://shop.3mdeb.com/product/pcengines-apu-refurbished-with-tpm-and-dasharo-pro-package/

These are refurbished PC Engines APU platforms, potentially among the last units available on the market.

The firmware support is also limited. More details about the post-EOL firmware announcement can be found on the Dasharo Universe page:
https://docs.dasharo.com/variants/pc_engines/post-eol-fw-announcement/

Novacustom use Dasharo https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/marketing/ready/novacustom/

We talking about validation among other things.

The 5th edition of vPub starts in 2 days! The schedule for the event has been published.

Starting with Daniel Maslowski intro to #RustSBI project, following with Michal Zygowski presentation on Qubes OS and MSI PRO Z690-A DDR4, and more!

Complete list available at: https://vpub.dasharo.com

26th May it is! Thank you for all the votes on the SM channels. The 5th edition of #vPub will be hosted in 10 days! As always we will be discussing lots of interesting topics with many great guests.
Stay tuned for more!

It SHOULD work if we are to believe the changes listed in the BIOS downloads here https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/PRO-Z690-A-WIFI-DDR4/support According to v1.30 i9-12900KS should be supported thanks to the microcode update. In our releases, the same microcode is used so we assume i9-12900K should also work. However, we have not tested this CPU yet so can't say for sure.

Dasharo v0.4.0 will be out today with ALL PCIe slots working, including gen5 dGPU slot. As for fTPM not working, it concerns the Windows Power Shell commands only, e.g. Get-Tpm. For some reason, those return an error, but it does not prevent one from installing Windows 10 or 11 in particular. Here is a public issue for tracking status: https://github.com/Dasharo/dasharo-issues/issues/76

We are very glad that our open-source firmware distribution was picked up again by respected open-source media company Phoronix:

We're looking forward to your review next week!

Thank you for taking the time to report the grammatical error on our website. It has been corrected.

In the long term TrenchBoot will support kexec with DRTM which should automatically enable it in heads. But first things first, we need the first kernel launch (aka early launch) get merged in upstream.

Heads itself is an AEM solution, the thing is, you cannot run heads on every platform you want, you need either:
1. coreboot/libreboot OR
2. stripped vendor UEFI firmware to fit heads kernel and initrd, something what LinuxBoot does.

Given the above requirements, heads is hard to deploy for a wide range of Qubes users. We giving a push for open-source firmware stacks like: coreboot+SeaBIOS or coreboot + EDK2 UEFI Payload, but also for vendor full UEFI solutions (which are unfortunately still the most common). It is safe to say this will be stack independent solution for DRTM early launch. And we are gonna implement TPM 2.0 support in Qubes OS AEM, for which the demand becomes higher and higher.

Thank you!

should be more precise now

Not APU (Accelerated Processing Unit) but apu (apu2 or later to be exact), a platform from PC Engines: https://www.pcengines.ch/apu2.htm. This was the platform on which we were developing and testing, but the changes are generic and can be used for other platforms, too.
If by restrictions you meant customer NVIDIA cards then yes, they are known to cause problems: http://old-list-archives.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2009-08/msg00486.html, https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Xen\_VGA\_Passthrough\_Tested\_Adapters#Nvidia\_display\_adapters, https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/system-requirements/#recommended. These issues are not caused by IOMMU, they just reveal themself when IOMMU is used.

Check it here: we wrote an intro to IOMMU. It explains What is IOMMU and how it can be used

https://blog.3mdeb.com/2021/2021-01-13-iommu/

It should work fine now

Still worthy of sharing, though

You are welcome!

System76 laptops are worthy to consider, eventually Chromebooks, but System76 is rather superior
