The LVFS is ending the free ride for hardware vendors by requiring contributions to keep the service sustainable and high quality. AMD finally pushed HDMI 2.1 patches to the kernel, likely a move to prepare for upcoming Steam Machines. There is a new ~/Projects directory standard arriving in xdg-user-dirs to help organize code and hardware designs. Finally, Focusrite is working with Linux developers to ensure day one support for the ISA C8X audio interface.Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/lwdwDiscord: https://discord.gg/uQVckr5gEZTimestamps:00:00 Intro02:17 Discord finally auto updates on Linux!09:13 LVFS restricts vendor access.17:40 HDMI 2.1 for AMD GPUs24:02 A new folder for you home directory34:19 Focusrite ISA C8X Linux support before launchTOPICSLVFS Updatehttps://mobaxterm.it.com/a/8588.htmlHDMI 4 AMDhttps://www.tweaktown.com/news/111415/hdmi-2-1-support-coming-to-linux-and-valves-steam-machine-courtesy-of-amd/index.htmlLinux new Projects directoryhttps://itsfoss.com/news/new-projects-directory-linux/Focusrite ISA C8Xhttps://interfacinglinux.com/community/linuxaudiohardware/linux-support-for-the-focusrite-isa-c8x/
