Forum Discussion Thread
We have some very interesting news this week, we've got a brand new major release of the LXQt desktop environment, there's a strange but potentially good twist in the ongoing saga of Nvidia and open source drivers, Red Hat drops the hardware ball and AlmaLinux catches it. Plus there's a new Linux Tablet trying to get kickstarted. All of this and more on this episode of This Week in Linux, Your Source for Linux GNews!
