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.

I am running Fedora 39 right now and the last time I did a distro upgrade my graphics drivers were a huge PITA. Did your upgrade to 40 went smooth?

Yes, Nvidia drivers broke, I had to remove and reinstall them, ( don't forget to reboot )

Edit: oh, and also my widgets broke, even ones that are made by KDE...

Also ClearClock is broken because it doesn't work on KDE 6

I definitely don't want to deal with that. Last time that happened I had to do a clean install which is just pain imo XD

Use the Atomic variants from uBlue! This will make sure stuff like that happens on their servers, they fix it once and the users always get working updates. (Maybe with a day delay in cases like this)
