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.

Raytracing is finally in a good state for AMD GPUs. Always good to hear GPU improvements for Linux!

I use Stable Diffusion with ROCm on Linux. Works great and no need to install the big bloat ROCm from the package manager. I've written an installation guide for Arch, but with little changes it should work on other distributions as well: https://gist.github.com/NoXPhasma/ba42b615c0ed1cb0c2b3a4a1b359ccf7

Nice to hear, maybe I will get that XTX then.

I also recently switched to arch and I'd really enjoy having a driver that doesn't crash my entire system when I change the balance of the HDMI audio
