It has been said that the best experience of Puppy Linux is not from the software itself, but from the community that gathers around it. Whatever you have in mind - praises, curses, questions, suggestions, or just plain chit-chat, we welcome you to join us at Puppy Linux Discussion Forum or just check the discussions for the latest puppylinux woof builds.
I have been using Linux Lite for years. I have used many other Linux distros like Zorin, Manjaro, Peppermint, Mint, Ubuntu, Pclinux, Lubuntu, and many more but to me Linux Lite is the best! With many add ons you do not see in others like Lite Tweaks and the Lite Software installer, it gets better with every release. Thanks for all you do.
For the example of the drm_open symbol, check to see if there are any packages which provide drm_open and are not already installed. For instance, on Ubuntu 14.04, the linux-image-extra package provides the DRM kernel module (which provides drm_open). This package is optional even though the kernel headers reflect the availability of DRM regardless of whether this package is installed or not.

Withhindsight, that should be another Heartbleed-level learning for thework of the distributions. These patches built the essential stepsto embed the backdoor, and do not have the scrutiny that theylikely would have received by the respective upstreammaintainers. Whether you trust Linus Law or not, it was not evengiven a chance to chime in here. Upstream did not fail on theusers, distributions failed on upstream and their users here.
