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.

Is this in a daily driver state? I haven’t been following.
No, still in development.
I think they said it's in a state where it's usable enough for the developers to daily drive.
Since around June/July.
Is there any kind of guide for how to configure settings not yet exposed to the gui settings? I have been spending some time in Cosmic after every update. It certainly isn't unusable, but it is kind of a stretch to consider it ready for daily use for an end user. I have a hard time imaging people at System76 daily driving Cosmic since June without manually changing the configuration files.
Is there IBus, or similar, integration on the development road map? This is a feature that keeps me from spending more time in Cosmic so far.
Depends on what you are wanting to configure. To configure displays, use
wdisplay. I personally use the system defaults.
