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.

Hello,

I want to learn how to sketch cartoons and I've been looking for a sketch pad that supports FOSS drivers/firmware. If anyone knows one please feel free to recommend. TIA!

You can pick up the older pads really cheaply too. I got mine for about £20 a few years ago. It's basic, but if you're just starting out, it does what you need :)
