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 - Force bluetooth aptx instead of LDAC? ...or fix bluetooth stuttering (lemm.ee)

Hi guys! Is there a way to get my KDE Neon to prefer aptX over ldac_HQ? If I understand it correctly, ldac seems to be a bit more unstable jumping over different bitrates when having interference, and aptX might be more stable? I'd like to try the difference, but not sure how to force Neon to work with the aptX codec with my headsets (Sony XM2 and XM5). I'm trying all this because I don't seem to be able to get any decent audio quality. It's super broken, stuttering constantly. Even changing from A2DP sink to the HFP mode (which I understand it to have lower bitrate and latency due to being designed for talking) improves it just very slightly, with the stutter continuing. This doesn't happen if I boot into windows on the same computer, audio works flawlessly.

I'd also like to know, some I'm having issues with my Bluetooth headset cutting in and out in Linux, but has no issues when I boot into windows
