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.

Whats the big thing that was pushed to 6.2 again? I think it was one of the last big features the devs wanted to merge.

Let's see whether this fixes the lag and frame drops that I get since KDE 6.1 with a VRR dual monitor setup when watching full screen video and moving the mouse from/to the other display.

I assume this has something to do with explicit sync (as KDE 6.1 introduced support), but I'm not sure what part of the chain is at fault. I'm on a Radeon 7800 XT.

And here I thought that my laptop was just not good enough for two monitors...
