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.

sadly this beta seems to be pretty broken, at least on my setup with 4070tis. i cannot even boot to plasma with the open-dkms and with the propietary one plasma is pretty glitchy, so i reverted back to 555.

Really? Thanks for the heads up. I'm enjoying the relative stability of 555 so I'll hold my breath a bit longer.
