The windows partition is just enough to boot in case I should ever need it and the installation for mint was really easy even for my non techy brains. The most frustrating part was finding a usb to make make a boot drive from, when "oh that one I that draw" was 500mb and the iso was 3gb...if you're wondering, go ahead and give it a go.</p>

Chris Hessert 🐧 🇺🇦<p>Another LinuxMint "Oh, wow!" moment.

◜danbeam◞ 👍 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ 🐾<p>No, nie som veľmi fanda <a href="https://mastodon.arch-linux.cz/tags/LinuxMint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LinuxMint</span></a>, hlavne kvôli default vzhľadu. Ale nemôžem zlé slovo povedať z hľadiska funkčnosti. Vylovil som starší počítač, a keďže elementary OS vyhadzoval chybu inštalácie a nechcelo sa mi s tým babrať, tak som skúsil Mint. Bez problémov nabehol, od začiatku funguje grafika a nastavenie jasu, čo bol na Fedore aj eOS problém. Wifi neišla, ale systém rovno navrhol, že "Toto zariadenie nefunguje: tu sú na to ovládače." Paráda.</p>

Piglet<p>Yey. My brand new second hand laptop arrived this morning. So, to dual boot with the pre installed windows 11 or just go whole hog into Linux? I'm thinking of keeping windows and partitioning the hard drive mostly as a just in case I need it. Anyone got any strong distro feelings before I default to mint as pretty stable and noob friendly? <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>linux</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/linuxmint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>linuxmint</span></a></p>

JL Johnson :veri_mast:<p>Despite running into a pretty tall and sturdy wall with audio issues I have to admit my <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/LinuxMint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LinuxMint</span></a> experience otherwise has been pretty positive. Easier than expected. </p><p>Re: Audio- consensus seems to be Linux doesn’t like my integrated audio. It sees it, applies a codec and as far as it’s concerned it’s pumping out audio. I’m tired of ChatGPT, remapping stuff and troubleshooting. So I posted a topic in the official forum. Willing to consider getting a standalone sound card that Linux digs. Guess we’ll wait and see. </p><p><a href="https://vmst.io/tags/LinuxCurious" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LinuxCurious</span></a></p>
