I would like to share with you a very cool project that develops drivers for correct operation of Microsoft Surface devices on Linux. I myself use Surface Pro 6 with these drivers and everything works like a charm (battery life is good, cameras work, stylus, keyboard, touchscreen, screen). The developers are gods.

I’m in the market to find a new distro that is similar enough to Fedora that switching won’t be as laborious as I’ve had it before. I keep hearing POP!_os is a good choice but I’m going to as the community what they think is good.

I’m considering getting a laptop for Linux and want to know a few things before I do. Some important info before I start: I don’t plan on using the laptop for anything too intense, mainly writing, digital art, streaming, browsing, and maybe very mild video editing (cropping at least and shortening at most).

We recommend running Element to join, as you’ll be able to have access to everything related to the event with its widgets, but you can use any Matrix client to join and have the YouTube livestream on another tab!

The Linux DMA-BUF protocol for Wayland is widely used these days and supported by multiple compositors for negotiating optimal buffer allocation parameters between clients and compositors. The current fifth version of linux-dmabuf was marked as stable with it working out well and no need for any other changes before removing the...

Out of frustration after hours digging and finding them, I want to share with anyone that needs them the working drivers for all the (ones I know) Goodix fingerprint drivers, usually found on Lenovo IdeaPad (like the IdeaPad 3 Slim) but also on other laptops....

Hey guys, I’ve finally started exploring talking about the work I’m doing with the Fedora Project as part of the marketing team and now as part of the design and magazine teams too! I really enjoy the “This Week in” style of weekly reports on all the work that is being done, so I’m looking forwards to sharing it like...
