*Linux Laptop Wiki [Rebooted]*

The aim of the website is to provide a central wiki to post experiences with Linux on the model of laptop / notebook you're using.

Linlap.info is an attempt to 'reboot' the abandoned and spammed linlap dot com which is now unusable.

Please consider participating on building a new "HQ" sending in your model / experiences!

Any help appreciated!

4. sudo dnf -y install ffmpeg-devel

Linux streamer "TheLinuxPleb" with a fancy topic today: Open Source Games Day!

His schedule is from saturday -tuesday from 3pm-6pm GMT/UTC approximately. Says it "might change bit depending on free ice time" :D
