• Possibly at the end of my Linux journey - nothing works correctly

  If you're still having trouble, maybe give another distribution a spin, I actually recommend Intel's Clear Linux (they developed your CPU ;) ) and installing the workstation spin of it. It's very performant. It differs from traditional distributions but is probably a good way to get into learning about containers, running everything sandboxed as a flatpak etc : https://clearlinux.org/.

• One simple criteria:

  SerpentOS (and SolusOS, which is rebasing on SerpentOS) and Intel's Clear Linux are exploring other new technologies that anticipate the emerging Linux direction. Clear Linux is server-oriented, not desktop oriented. SerpentOS is not yet even in Beta. Source: about 1 year ago

• Building Rustdesk Docker image

  Yes, I need to deploy/install Rustdesk on my computer. Given that I currently rock a rather exotic distro (no, I am not willing to switch), the only promising venue seems to be installing Rustdesk atop Docker--as a Docker container, that is. Source: about 1 year ago

• Alpine Linux 3.18.0 Released

  Link for anyone interested in Clear Linux: https://clearlinux.org/ Had heard of Alpine and used it plenty for containers, yet hadn't heard of Clear Linux before. Nowadays I just use Ubuntu for my container images (due to the same environment as my dev machine which simplifies things for me), but there's also a lot of benefit and elegance in more lightweight alternatives. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Arch and Gentoo - Best Surface Feature Support?

  Clear Linux - I really wanted to get this working because of the optimizations the Intel builds into their distro. I was able to install the latest desktop version, and as long as I used an external USB keyboard and mouse, I was able to use the system. However, I was never able to figure out how to properly build the patched kernel to support the Surface devices. If anyone wants to play around with Clear and their... Source: about 1 year ago

• Can I run Linux on my old PC ?

  Yeah, for sure you can give It a try! Imo you have to use a lite desktop environment like xfce maybe . You can have a pretty good idea of what can be your experience Just running a live distro like Ubuntu xfceUbuntu xfce or Linux Mint xfce, if you are really desperate you can also try a very very lightweight like puppy linux. I Will try One of the First 2 in live mode and if It runs well you can install It on the... Source: 12 months ago

• Can my computer run linux VM?

  If you still want to try it on a VM, I'd recommend assigning just 1 GB to it, coupled with a lightweight desktop environment, like XFCE (you can use Xubuntu). Source: 12 months ago

• Should I use Ubuntu 16 in 2023?

  To get a modern lightweight Linux experience you can use a recent version of one the Ubuntu flavours that is optimized for low-resource machines: either Xubuntu (with XFCE) or Lubuntu (with LXQt). Source: about 1 year ago

• Why does resizing windows in Linux desktop don't feel quite as "snappy" as in other OSes?

  It works just fine for me in Xubuntu (Ubuntu with Xfce Desktop environment : https://xubuntu.org/ ). Source: about 1 year ago

• Distro Suggestion

  I run an older spec of the HP Stream. There's no perfect solution, it will be a bit laggy, but I've had good enough performance from the Fedora XFCE Spin and Xubuntu. Source: about 1 year ago
