    What’s DRM in this context? Surely linux kernel doesn’t do digital rights management?

      Direct Rendering Manager. Part of Linux kernel to communicate with GPUs.

        Doesn’t matter; I still get triggered by it every time anyway.

      Actually there is DRM in the kernel thanks to the HDMI blobs.

        Fuck HDMI. The committee makes doing custom hardware near impossible unless you’re a mega corp

        How do they handle the naming confusion?

      It ought to be mandatory to write this out whenever talking about Linux. I’ve seen more than one person bash Linux in a public forum “because it has digital rights management built into the kernel” after they’ve misinterpreted some news headline.

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.
