KDE is the worst loving desktop environment I have ever had the displeasure to use. Zero redeemable qualities. It has blanketed me in piss.

Few days into using fedora and dnf actually kinda owns/seems a lot better than apt. Looking to gain a good enough understanding of selinux through all this.

does it boot from a cd or usb?

did you turn off secure boot?

how old is it?

only partially booting from usb/cd, but once I get into the actual OS, it dies.. hard

i.. think I still have it on?

the board is from mid-2013 iirc

look around for the legacy boot option or some poo poo. i can't remember exactly but it was something like that with my gigabyte mobo that would stop linux usbs

I enabled IOMMU after reading that might help, but still nothing

Fedora 25 released today. Updated my home pc on day one, only thing I did was reinstall the nvidia driver on first boot. No issues at all.

I'm still just really happy with how smooth updating via dnf is for this.

Fedora is pretty great but lol at trying to get media stuff like VLC working since the switch to wayland, such as https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/question/98107/vlc-picture-freezes-on-fedora-25/

It will be even more cool and good when they're able to support that stuff better and bring it out of rpmfusion.

my gamebox windows decided to stop updating itself again last year, and today it decided to randomly stop booting so i finally had the excuse i was looking for since ditching nvidia and nuked it

installed deb11 instead, everything works out of the box and the games run smoother lmfao. thanks, valve

I, too, like the init system thing part. I'm less happy with the log handling thing. The rest is a dumpster fire.

Having an easy way to put FlexLM daemons into lowest-privilege container-like isolation with only a few switches is pretty neat. They even get ephemeral users assigned to them.

Yeah, I alias that poo poo as "jctl"
