    Do you feel like the terminal is the biggest sticking point when it comes to people switching to Linux? I think its a major failing that really needs to be fixed. I have the ability to hop into the terminal in MacOS and take full control of whatever I want when I want to, but when I install new...

    Cinnamon Ubuntu seems like a nice option, its pretty speedy on my Chromebook. It only has a dual core Celeron and it doesn't seem to have any issues that aren't caused specifically by the quirks of my Chromebook, eg. No sound through speakers and no touchscreen. I've also tried Pop-OS and that...

    Well it wasn't too painful in the end though for some reason my Chromebooks firmware was write protected and can't be solved by removing a write protect screw. So I was stuck with the Legacy Firmware Option which I think should do for now. Things to fix are, no touch screen input, no sound, no...

    That's reassuring @Judge :-) Hopefully the soundcard etc will work out of the box and I will keep the installation media ready for any issues so I can just knock it all down and start from scratch if it comes to the worst. I had kinda hoped that the Linux features of ChromeOS would be a good...

    Cinnamon Ubuntu image is downloading now for my Chromebook. I need to look over what I need to do to unlock my Chromebook to boot it and hopefully it will be smooth sailing! 😀

    I always liked having separate partitions for my files/documents and apps/OS. The good thing about that is that is if your OS decides its going to shuffle away, you can reinstall and after a little bit of tweaking, you have more or less what you had before where you expect it. This is great...

    I was using GRUB at the time, but there was certainly some weirdness. When I got a (spacious 🤓) 120GB hard disk I triple booted Linux, osx and Windows for a while. There was a little bug in OSX (fair enough as it was never intended to run on my machine) where the GPU wouldn't initialize unless...

    Any fellow Linux users on here?

    You know, I wonder if Intel just bought up the company that made the soundcard in my "laptop" (in quotations as it folded in half but it was huge). I'm pretty sure it had a Crystal Audio sticker on the soundcard. It kinda clipped in near the front right of the motherboard and screwed on to some...

    Oh sorry @Aspychata I hope I wasn't being insensitive. If you find any photos it would be lovely to see them, but I wouldn't want to cause any upset if its still difficult for you.

    Any fellow Linux users on here?

    Cool! I will give them a try! The problem is that with my Chromebook Lubuntu was the only one that was happy with the soundcard on my particular Chromebook according to a guide I read. Last time I messed around trying to address various Audio inputs and outputs in Linux with an old crystal...

    Any fellow Linux users on here?

    I think that's part of the problem too. Unfortunately if you really want to get stuff done in an OS it gets quickly very tedious to have to type things. Sure I could create a nice looking text document with lots of nice fonts in notepad or text edit and add all the markups myself. In fact I used...

    Before we were sure that Treacle was a girl I was worried that she may have similar complications. I'm sorry that your kitty may have to go through a more difficult procedure 🙁 Treacle has settled down a lot now and she seems very happy to be home and lots of her favorite foods! But I will be...

    I really want to love Linux but its just too gosh darned flaky. I set up an Immich server and it ran great for 2-3 months but now its crashed and isn't even booting. Its always been the problem with Linux from as far back as 25 years ago when I started trying it out. Unless you want to faff...
