Central Post to improve Touchpad experience on Linux

Hello,

I want to create a Post here where people can share information on how to improve their touchpad experience on linux.

Personally I want to improve my touchpad settings on linux too, as it is important when using a laptop without a mouse.

Especially with new laptops that have windows precision touchpads, the difference between windows and linux gets bigger.

​

I would appreciate your help on creating a post that can help people like me to adjust their touchpad to their needs.

​

Kindd version 2.0.0 released.

Kindd is a gui for dd command that written in qt-quick.

In this new release we add some new functionalities:

1. Redesign whole app.
2. List only removable devices. (So there is no choice for users to format/delete partitions accidentally).
3. There is no need for list-devices page.
4. Some improvment in file-chooser dialog.
5. Automatic usb add/eject detection.

Termux on Android + Mosh/Ssh is fantastic.

I can access my phone from my computer without it being plugged in.

It compliments KDE Connect so well. If I want to do something KDE Connect doesn't support, I just Mosh into my phone and do whatever I want to.

Termux is already pretty great on its own, but using an Android command line in my computer is just so convenient.

[Here's](https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/Remote_Access) a tutorial on how to do it.

Best Retro Styled Environments?

Hi, I am looking for an environment that emulates the look of pre XP OR windows 7, with all the functionalities that a normal consumer would use.

MercuryOS

This looks like a very interesting direction for the evolution of the desktop and HCI in general. I can see this being built on top of Linux, or even ChromeOS. The post is gorgeous, too.

What's your opinion about the changes in the Linux and FOSS community

With the Linux Foundation closing its board to users from the community and Microsoft's intrusion into the FOSS community, what do you think the future holds?

\- Do you think nothing pertinent will change?

\- Will the corporations taking over the Linux Foundation be benevolent toward the community?

\- Can the community dump the Foundation that no longer wants them and maintain Linux without them?

\- Will Linux be exterminated?

\- Will a new independent OS kernel and community need to be created to replace Linux?
