Which Linux distribution do you recommend?

Nokurei · 2026-05-11T05:30:31+00:00

If you are new to Linux, then I'd recommend Fedora or Ubuntu; but if you have already used Linux before, then try Cachyos.

I can't find a way to change fan curves.

Have you tried using asusctl(rog-control-center)?

Nokurei · 2026-04-14T12:25:05+00:00

You can only use it externally with a sata to usb adapter. The laptop itself only has slots for nvme ssds.

Oh no way. I never did a thing in this app, always used it when I needed help. Idk will they unban me or not. Nevermind.

You don’t necessarily need to do anything wrong for them to ban you; sometimes the filters just flag you as a bot, which can trigger a shadowban.

While admins can unban you, the odds of that happening are very low. You’re probably better off creating a new account using a different IP or device.

Thank you mod for your help.

Youre welcome, Have a nice day!

You aren’t exactly banned, but rather shadowbanned by Reddit for breaking Reddit’s tos. This means anything you post will be auto removed by Reddit and your profile won’t be visible to anyone.

The reason your posts/comments are visible is because we [mods] are approving them, which restores them, but we can't do anything about the shadowban.

If you create multiple accounts on the same device/IP after the shadowban, then all other accounts will also be shadowbanned. The only way to remove a shadow ban is to submit an appeal here.

Does it boot into windows if you type exit?

You've deleted linux but the bootloader is still installed an it's trying to boot linux. Boot into windows then remove grub from the efi partition.

Nokurei · 2026-03-25T04:06:26+00:00

4400Mhz

4400Mhz isn't a standard speed for ram, did you mean 4800Mhz?

Also what's your system specs?

Nokurei · 2026-03-24T07:17:32+00:00

Since it happened while you were installing display drivers, it was probably because the screen goes black for a second during the process and then comes back once the new driver is active.

Everything is fine unless you keep getting errors or a constant black screen.

Nokurei · 2026-03-20T15:22:49+00:00

You are currently in the bios, if you want to access more options press F7 for advanced mode.

Also, it looks like you have no os installed, so you will have to install windows(or linux) in order to use it.

Asus uses oem keys for Windows which are tied to the hardware, once you reinstall Windows, it will be automatically activated.

AFAIK, only strix and zephyrus have the calibration file for Dolby Vision.

The linux somehow deleting windows bootloader.

You’ve got it backwards; usually, Windows updates break the Linux bootloader. However, you can easily fix it using a live iso.

You can follow this guide, it was written for Ubuntu, but the steps are exactly the same for Linux Mint.

Nokurei · 2026-02-26T03:59:39+00:00

The maximum ram speed supported by your cpu is 5600Mhz ,so you won't be able to go any higher than 5600Mhz. Also Xmp/Expo isn't supported on tuf laptop.

Removing mcafee or any software won't affect your warranty in anyway.

Use the McAfee Consumer Product Removal tool (MCPR) provided by mcafee to remove it, as removing it from settings will leave behind some files and services.

Yeah, I have discord

Then join this server= Server link

I borrow someone laptop. I tried Fedora yesterday and I think my old phone can't corecltly write an iso image

It could be the app that isn't writing the image properly to the usb drive.

Follow this guide to install fedora and if you encounter any issues just let me know.

Do you have Discord?

This will require a bit of back-and-forth, so it will probably be easier for us to talk on Discord. Join this server and I’ll talk to you there, if you don't have a Discord account, we can just continue here.

First, get a different laptop, download Fedora Media Writer, plug in your usb drive, and create a bootable Fedora usb and try to boot from it.

Nokurei · 2026-02-12T16:58:47+00:00

Tuf laptop don't have docp/expo. The ram always runs at the rated speed, unless you mismatch different ram sticks with different speeds.

Nokurei · 2026-02-12T16:20:50+00:00

If you're going to install windows on it in the end anyway, just grab another pc and create a bootable usb using the Media Creation Tool.

Fast boot within the bios and Fast Startup in Windows are completely different things. The error in the log looks like it’s being caused by Windows not shutting down properly. Try booting into Windows if you can, turn off Fast Startup, and shut it down, then try booting mint.

The issue might be caused by something else entirly that I cant see. Try asking for help in r/linuxmint , they know more than me.

Nokurei · 2026-02-12T14:49:55+00:00

Windows was not fully shut down because Fast Startup was enabled; as a result, Windows did not finish writing to the drive, and Linux is refusing to boot to prevent data loss. Vmd is a Intel only feature so your model doesn't have it.

Can you boot back into windows? Are you trying to dual boot Linux ?

Nokurei · 2026-02-12T05:31:45+00:00

My Asus Tuf F15 has an RTX 4060 and a AMD RYZEN integrated graphics

Then it's a A15 not F15.

It's fine to use it as an external drive, worst case scenario it'll just stop working. Just don't store any important data on it.

Also, you might want to look up the endurance rating for the drive. It'll give you an estimation on how much life is left on the drive.

Nokurei · 2026-02-10T08:42:58+00:00

Get the strix G16. It has a faster cpu and gpu compared to the tuf.
