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.

Bleeding edge in Debian? I was not even using the "testing" release of Debian.

If your point is that it's fine for a company to get their stuff out there in a timely fashion, that company just sucks balls in my opinion.

Just FYI I am perfectly fine with you having your workarounds and (apparently different) opinion.

I expected some basic civility and more constructive tone of words. But if you start blaming me as a user for something basically ALL other vendors are coping with just fine, thats where the discussion stops with me.

I am definitely not against linux (daily user myself). And honestly, people like you don't make Linux more attractive of an option.

Have a good one.
