This is my dualboot install on my old laptop that I used in high school. The trackpad is chipped, and I only use the Windows install for those pesky pieces of invasive proctoring software in use in my college courses. The Mint install, I primarily use for downloading stuff (Persepolis) and data recovery (Because Windows shits itself if you dare plug in a damaged drive).
I always enjoyed NixOS, but then I got some CRAZY hardware issues. Like my monitor wouldn’t turn on crazy even though it’d be working fine for a while.
That sounds more like a kernel issue than a distro issue. Were you on regular linux or linux_latest?
Regular. Yeah I’ve NEVER hit anything like that before. My only guess is something in one of the kernel patches ran into my hardware and my hardware nope’d out.
Updated to Bookworm just the other day.Not gonna lie, the fact that I can see all these neofetch images in the comment section has me sold on Lemmy over Reddit.
Right? It looks so good
Does this count
all fetches are valid
samsung book (kinda) crappy laptop
my moto g7 play
e30 here
What are you using to generate that?
It’s called
neofetchYou can install it via pretty much any package manager.
neofetch is the programs name
It’s a terminal program called
neofetch. Some of the other screenshots use a similar program calledpfetch.
Damn… Those monitors.
Well here is mine:
Arch, Void, Arch, Gentoo, Arch, Arch,…you’re all making me feel like a basic removed.
Super surprised to see the number of void linux here in this platform
There’s a lemmy.ml/c/voidlinux community as well.
But yea, I once met a Void user at a party, and it seems like any number above ‘0’ is a surprise.
Anyone here on Steamdeck?
I wasn’t aware steamOS used Pacman, i thought it was immutable
You can kinda make it bend a bit to your whim. While it is technically immutable if you don’t mess with it, it does have everything necessary for using pacman. It just all reverts next time steamos updates. Anything you install directly through the discover portal is permanent, but it does technically have access to anything in the pacman repos as well.
I unlocked mine long enough to download neofetch and take the screenshot for this. It’ll revert back soon, but I only needed it temporarily for imaginary internet points. :)
