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.

Only thing I can find is this OS News article saying it should be in the 6.10 kernel

I can not find any confirmation that it is.

That quote actually links to a really good article: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-6.10-Merging-NTSYNC

@Technus @pbjamm This sounds sooo good 😊.
#gamingonlinux has come a long way and still keeps improving.

It's actually being pushed as "broken" for 6.10 but should hopefully be completely available in 6.11.

oh that makes more sense, for some reason I thought it was in 6.9 already
