Their newer stuff is ok, when it ships. Their first offering, rebadged from a car radio manufacturer’s attempt at a cheap laptop sold at flagship price without even understanding why firmware was important in the stack… Not so much.
You can move the default folders like “Music” “Photos” and “Videos” or whatever to any location you’d like. I personally have my /home on a small ssd and on a separate large ssd I have a shared partition with windows with all my other stuff. I mounted that partition to /mnt/Storage or whatever and just mapped all my stuff to that partition, like pictures to /mnt/Storage/Pictures
Disregard that, I see that the iPad 2 and iPad mini are not eligible since the min iOS version is 11. All devices since 2012 work though, hope that helps someone else. Sorry.
I’ve tried a bunch like ranger, lf, vifm, sfm and even some different ones like clifm. I always come back to nnn though. Nothing beats its speed and config options.
In this case, however, it cannot be said that I am using it as intended. The AUR helper I use, aurutils, uses Vifm to display the respective PKBUILD file during an update, for example.
Odd, pretty sure I ran Fedora with my Nvidia 3090 just fine with secure boot. Currently running Arch Linux with the exactly same 3090 using self-signed secure boot certs. I didn’t have to sign the Nvidia kernel modules, just the kernel image and the bootloader.
Are any of these an SSD? Because you will definitely feel it if you move your home from an SSH to an HDD. Especially browsers and such, things will start up much more slowly.
I’d recommend keeping home on an SSD and optionally moving all the folders to an HDD if you wish, but at least keep dotfiles on an SSD if you have one.
There’s a lot of options for shuffling things around on Linux with symlinks and bind mounts.
I’ve been on Fedora Linux for almost a year now. Considering that I started using Linux when the pandemic started, you can figure out that it’s my distro of choice now. Also, I like that Fedora is, for the most part, quite developer friendly and had great packages and software installed when I first started using it.
OpenSUSE Tumbleweed is a great choice for a robust rolling distribution. Automated testing of packages rules out most of regressions and its KDE implementation is top notch. If you were considering Fedora or Arch, look no further.
Well, I’m putting it on a Microsoft Surface Pro (which really is just a tablet with an optional well-integrated attachable keyboard, and I’m only really going to be using it as a tablet). Due to it being a Microsoft device, it doesnt completely work out of the box with Linux, but there are a few projects out there to help it do so (like this).
Tilix [gnunn1.github.io/tilix-web/] is missing from the list. My terminal of choice for the last (I lost count) however many years. Integrates nicely with gnome3+
