I like Bunsen labs for this. I installed it on a 1 gb ram pentium m laptop and it was pretty good. Idled at 300 mb iirc. Only downside is that it uses openbox as a window manager so if that’s not your thing idk.
Has a decent bit of GUI tools
I have beef with an ath9k card. My qca9377 is the slowest wifi card I’ve ever used. Also for that card, debian doesn’t ship with support for it by default. Intel cards seem to have a better track record.
I haven’t found any documentation on this except “don’t do it lol”. Which is why I’m confused. How?
Edit: finding more info and discovering that people didn’t have bricked systems after using dkms which leads me to assume that later versions of popos do not have the issue that people were trying to avoid.
I used to use Bunsenlabs before moving to popos due to popos handling the dgpu better. Thats what I’m thinking as well.
If I use no dkms and no legacy, I get the current clinfo result. No detected gpu.
Problem is that popos has their own thing that will conflict with dkms and every single tutorial or guide for installing amdgpu drivers uses no-dkms as an install flag.
I need this to do opencl compute.
Yes but your mileage may vary. My pavilion x360 had okay out of the box support for it’s touchscreen. I don’t remember if tilt worked.
My touchscreen is currently busted and the hinges broke the case (and probably the digitizer) so I stopped using the convertible function of it.
Depends on your major. I’m a bio/ecology major and a lot of the tools I used were cross platform or web based.
Also the university I went to did have basic Linux instructions for certain things like connecting to printers and connecting to the internet.
They didn’t reinvent it, they just took a tv box chip and shoved it into a phone.
Edit: the soc that they are using is worse than the feature phone soc in my old Nokia from 2008. What the actual fuck.
So they.just reinvented the DVB-T tuner.
Edit: I looked it up and it’s literally just that. The fact they’re shoving it into feature phones is interesting.
I tried xubuntu when I was 14 on a live cd to get students admin access on our school laptops. Once I got my own machine, I kept it on windows 10 until it became unstable so I moved to Bunsenlabs, then Pop OS due to it’s dgpu. (Intel igpu, amd dgpu)
You can get around it a few ways. Some are drive agnostic, some aren’t. Also your drive might not be super affected by it. My dad’s Sony AIO PC didn’t have an issue ripping while a USB DVD drive I borrowed did.
Edit: the Sony AIO PC was also from 2012. It was running windows 7 when I did this.
Something to keep in mind is that Riplock is a thing. It will make DVD reads slower.
You have to be careful on the 80 series. They are either 7th gen Intel or 8th gen Intel. My sister has an i5-7200u t580. Also 8th gen is weird, I’ve been having issues with my pavilion trying to get it to run at base clock. I had to uninstall Intel thermald and run “throttled”, a GitHub script to run at base clock.
Also it’s the last generation of T series that has dual batteries, and a few gens later, they move to soldered ram.
E and L series ThinkPads tend to have upgradable ram. The build isn’t as good but the upgradability is something to keep in mind.
As for the specs and the lack of mentioning them, I agree.
Why would I talk about US prices/currency for a danish tech site?
If someone is looking for tech in Europe, it doesn’t make sense for me to use a US reference.
But wouldn’t mint have the same issues as Debian 12?
I checked LinuxPusher and I wouldn’t say they’re affordable. Their laptops are 2-3x the price of the same laptop running no OS on sites like eBay.de. For example, their cheapest T470 is 3000 krone, while the equivalent laptop on ebay is like 150 euro or 1120 krone.
I looked at a Thinkpad L14 G1, an elitebook 840 G5, and the dell 3060 Micro and it’s the same. Consistently 2x and higher markup.
Is that markup worth a 2 year warranty?
You could literally buy a second device if the first one kicks the bucket and still be out ahead monetarily.
If you want to slowly start using linux and already have a pc, make a portable install on any flash drive (I like external ssds for this exact reason) you want, and boot it. (ideally set the RealTimeIsUniversal registry entry in windows so Linux and windows don’t fuck up the bios time).
But would it fix the core issues that OP is having?
Texas instruments graphing calculators have them too.
