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.

Is this the update that will let me use two monitors with different refresh rates at the same time under wayland?
If I recall correctly, yes, mostly this should deal with a lot of bugs
You also need the Mesa and Xwayland support but otherwise yes. It is all out there now. You just have to get it all to your distro.
