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.

Update: for anyone who's having the nvidia suspend issue and finds this post. Apparently turning off OS prober in the grub config fixes that. Good day, and keep practicing the magic!

Okay guys it's fixed! I had to reboot into an older kernel, that did it. I was kinda panicking, cuz i have to use it for work.

You and that kernel were both panicking!

I still remember when I tried to run a binary on a different architecture and got the message: "Bad elf magic"
