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.

What do you mean

Initial version of a Bluetooth driver

Will Wine apps be able to interact with Bluetooth? That could be useful for stuff liks ODB2 scanners

Now if they could add proper USB support so we'd be able to upgrade the firmware of Windows only controllers (looking at you 8bitdo Ultimate), that'd be great.

Part of such apps do work already if they use libusb, which is for instance Playstation controller updater.
