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.

Shouldn't be too long left, I'd expect it to hit Fedora 40 sometime this month. I also shared instructions on how to temporarily upgrade the kernel to the one in Fedora 41's repos (which is past 6.9) if you were interested in trying that, though the instructions are untested as of yet (the issue doesn't affect me since I don't play games). It's easily revertible if you wanted to give it a try. I probably wouldn't bother if you use secure boot, because I've had issues with signing things before with similar steps, though those are the official steps from the Fedora documentation, so it may be that they just work fine.
