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.

Its Ubuntu 24.04. When I started it, it took quite awhile and then said "there as a problem, please log out".
Now that I've got it started (where I'm posting from now), it still refuses to arrange my monitors. And I have no idea what this 5th, 13.3" monitor is supposed to be.
It looks like my issues are related to this hardware. I guess that's understandable. I thought this hardware would be transparent to the OS, and apparently it's not.
If I hit apply here, it will fail and put them back in a line. I'll also get around 4 fps and no cursor on the additional monitors.
