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 wonder if the open source driver will ever be able to replicate quite advanced features such as frame generation.
DLSS is easy enough - make the driver have a generic hook compatible with the Windows DLL, which Proton already can use.
But frame generation? It actually requires the driver to intercept quite a lot of calls from the game engine.
