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.

Oooo one of the main things stopping me from coming over to Linux is the fact that one of my primary uses is djing, currently I use traktor and have tried mixxx in the past but haven't really got on with it.
Definitely going to give this a go to see how it has improved as I haven't tried it out for a few years and maybe I can finally make the shift away from windows!
Anyone have any experience of bringing libraries / playlists across to mixxx from other software?
I did a quick install, definitely feels way better than ~7 years ago, when i last checked it out. Hopefully connecting my old Kontrol S2 won't be too much of a hassle.
The tracks I've imported seem to have come with the same info I've added on Traktor.
I think the last time I tried it was around that time frame too so good to hear that and that your traktor info seems to have been read properly.
I have an S4 mk3 which i see is specifically mentioned on the link OP provided as now being fully supported out the box so I'm going to install it on windows and give it a try tonight I think to see how it is now.
Will be amazing if everything just works right out of the box without having to fuck around with libraries!
