Ventoy is great ๐ฏ
Cause they make way for things that are either better or worse. Life is all about the ups and downs. I have been trying to come to terms with it, albeit unsuccessfully, till now.
as I said everyone is lying ๐ญ
You can't if you are not ๐ญ
Gotta get an NVMe urgently for that.
And page 888 has ended
I wish my laptop worked with linux drivers not available even in latest kernel
You would think intel wifi card would have better support
As I said, not everyone is. Poverty in itself is a relative term though, until or unless the concept of absolute poverty comes in. For a rich dude, not owning a Range Rover is poverty, while to a destitute, not being able to avail a day's meal is poverty.
Ah, you were talking about that. Sorry, I went into a dark place
What laptop is that?
Pretty sure, there are atleast opensource DKMS modules for many Intel cards at the very least.
Yeah page 888 went away ๐ญ
But should not they be built into kernel or am I missing something and need to download them manually?

Double the bandwidth please, thanks!
Dude, I am fairly certain there are drivers for it, just out of the kernel tree though. Find the model number of the WiFi card and share it here. I'll let you know if there's a Linux driver for it.
Damn I missed 888
I tried Gentoo may be more than a 15yrs back. I think disk it came with Digit magazine.
In other options, I liked Manjaro, Deepin is good too. Ran CentOS for servers , then moved to Debian. Did't try others.
You are free bird now.
Zorin pro? Elementary is good too.
CentOS was legendary until RHEL turned it to into an upish-midstream for their paid linux. And now it's always Debian Thx! well i am thinking of migrating some servers from the ancient centos7 to alma 9 or maybe Debian Thx!
Free as in beer?
Yeah that Pro tingled me for good but elementary is better for some use cases, i really like its UI.
Yes, was a bit difficult with the setup, especially moving files and converting the partitions to ext4. I prefer that over NTFS. Currently, moving files on a 5400RPM HDD, so, you know, it's frustrating.
Throwback to the good old days. Those were 8GB Dual Layer DVDs.
For storing Media for something like Jellyfin, what would you guys recommend - 3.5" SATA HDD or NVMe?
11 PAGES TO 900 !!
Nothing beats the value for money choice HDDs.
Been seeing these Matrix and Aykait HDDs for cheap and 2 year warranty (though). Not sure if these are good enough. If I do get that, I will also need an externally powered Docking station, in which case a SATA SSD seems to be the comfortable choice for media storage.
