GNU Linux-Libre 4.13 Kernel Launches Officially for Those Who Seek 100% Freedom

New GNU Linux-libre releases always come out a few days after the final release of a new Linux kernel branch. Therefore, as Linux kernel 4.13 was officially unveiled this past weekend by Linus Torvalds, it’s time for a new GNU Linux-libre version, in this case GNU Linux-libre 4.13. The GNU Linux-libre 4.13 kernel appears to be a big release that deblobbed more drivers than the previous one. Among the drivers that needed deblobbing, we can mention both the Qualcomm Venus V4L2 encoder and decoder, Qualcomm’s ADSP and WCNSS, as well as Inside Secure’s SafeXcel cryptographic engine.
