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.

KDE Neon / Pipewire issues when gaming (lemm.ee)

Hi guys! So I seem to have audio issues. Audio will mute for like 5 seconds every 20 seconds or so. It's very annoying, as it can make you miss whole parts of dialog. It only happens on linux, and only on gaming, so I guess it means the amp/surround system is ok. I use the TV HDMI output for audio, as it gets redirected to the 5.1 amp via ARC. This works flawlessly for most scenarios, but somehow it seems to get into trouble when in games. I've tried so far games based on Proton (Cyberpunk, Alan Wake...original, not remake). I'm using lates KDE Neon, with Pipewire. What would you recommend to check? If I boot back to WiIndows, the games run fine.
