Linux

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.

That still exists BTW. It's called Lomiri now.

Seriously? Last I heard unity had no maintainers except one teenager. Is lomiri decently supported? Run well on Ubuntu or other distros?

I was thinking of looking into cinnamon because of this. But maybe I should check lomiri…

Quite similar to my setup, except mine is based on KDE (yours seems to be Cinnamon), and I have a slightly wider vertical bar with a little more spacing between elements.

Good job!

Get a debian logo instead of Cinnamon's default logo.
