Destination Linux 186: Quality Control in Linux & DLN Game Fest!

On this week’s episode of Destination Linux, the DL Roundtable meets to discuss the subject of Quality Control in Linux! Do we have a good system or is the recent Boot Hole patch a vision of things to come? Then we’ll check in with System76 and some reimagining of the keyboard. We take an outdoor adventure in the gaming section and our popular tips/tricks and software picks. Plus so much more, coming up right now on Destination Linux.

We are having a DLN Game Fest where a bunch of the DLN Creators get together to play some games and we’ll be streaming the games on YouTube for everyone to hangout!
