**What have we been up to Linux related this Week?**

Martin – Delving into further customisation on my KDE desktop

Matt – I hopped distros this week. I tried to go to ArchLabs, but that didn't work. I then tried to go back to arco, but that didn't work. I used Ubuntu for about 4 hours until I started to have AUR withdrawls, so then I installed Manjaro. That's where I'm at now. Also, audio hell was back.
