Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Oof yeah, definitely noticed some of those. I also totally lost screen share for both Wayland apps via portals and X11 apps in Xwayland, which really sucks.

In the meantime I found a few more nice ones ...

  • Mouse cursor does not always obey the selected cursor theme, so depending on which window I hover over I get the white Breeze Light cursor or the black Adwaita cursor... Oddly enough, it's the new QT6 applications that get the Adwaita cursor. I couldn't replicate this on a "fresh" desktop with a clean user account, so it must be something in my existing settings that caused b0rkage in the 5 to 6 transition.

  • Can't toggle mpv to fullscreen. The F key does nothing, neither does the --fullscreen switch.
