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.

As of right now, audio is working! This is my 3rd toughbook and I’ve been super happy with them. I have put them through hell with travel, heat/cold, high altitude and the elements and they’ve been nothing but durable. Clunky yes, but I appreciate em. I’m happy to have something other than windows running on them but now I’m trying to get wine setup and running some of the niche applications.
I've had a lot of success with Lutris for apps you wouldn't expect.
I am working on Lutris now, trying to get the Panasonic Day/Night Utility working as well as some mapping software and boy is my noob status biting me in the ass lol. I have a lot to learn still. Thanks for the tip!
