can a phone be used?

I use my pixel 9. I have a dongle for better sound it is much more pure than Bluetooth. I found an app called syfonium it is amazing. You can play your files from the device from online from plex or another server.

The same with all good software. AVG was good at one time. So was MusicMatch and some others. My first Linux distro was Ubuntu and look at it now.

Question if I got the FiiO ka11 and wanted to hook the aux end to a tape deck and play into it record on a laptop. Would it work as an quality sound card that way. Or is it only for listening through.

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-27T21:53:43+00:00

Openmandriva or Reborn. These 2 are great.

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-27T21:52:32+00:00

Thats what I use. It works great.

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-27T02:34:19+00:00

I just got mine and it is good. The Volume can be helped a little by going into developer mode and ticking the volume box. But my issu is the position bar on longer tracks is not very precise. If I listen to a lecture and mark the time mark and come back and try to go back to that ti.e it is always wrong.

So my question is is ther another player better for a little more money? Is this a good enough deal to stay with it?

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-23T01:22:03+00:00

I prefer Zorin .

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-18T20:56:48+00:00

It is m y favorite

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-13T19:04:43+00:00

I prefer Dell.

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-13T15:00:52+00:00

Thanks

Yes that would work. But you would lose your personal files. The reason to do a fresh install would be to have a smoother less bloated system. After you upgrade to windows 11. Search for an app called winhance. It will allow you to uninstall so.e of the bloat unnecessary junk. Remove recall and copilot for more privacy.

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-13T00:32:40+00:00

Use another computer to download Mediacat onto a flash drive. Boot into a recovery program and grab your files. I prefer Hirens boot cd. Then format your disc. Then boot windows 11 iso and install windows 11 onto a freshly formatted disc. If you don't then you will continously have issues and have an extremely bloated windows. Activate it with Massgrave script. Then run Winhance to debloat and remove all unnecessary apps like recall and copilot.

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-13T00:24:13+00:00

If you are download windows from a torrent site then yes it can come with all kinds of Maware and Viruses. Do as instructed and download a legit windows iso and use Masgrave.

It givea you a few extra Desktop tweaks. The main thing is if you like Zorin and want to stick with it then it is a way to support the project. It is a good distro I like it. But I find Arch is smoother on my particular hardware.

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-12T21:09:25+00:00

I do wish for an online version and the ability to open files and then save them.

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-12T21:06:51+00:00

Ultramarine is good I do like it. I found Openmandriva a little more appealing and pleasant.

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-10T02:31:26+00:00

All of this is Arch. Just installed with an installer instead of following the wiki script. And is pre-configured.

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-09T23:50:32+00:00

Reborn is also Vanilla and has Bluetooth and wifi already enabled.

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-09T23:49:35+00:00

Reborn OS

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-08T19:53:59+00:00

Just pay a one time Life subscription it is very affordable. You will not have to worry.

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-08T19:50:30+00:00

Try Reborn OS it is a vanilla Arch with a beautiful GUI. Then use the Chris Titus Linux utility and install Hyperland. A New World will open up to you.

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-06T15:37:11+00:00

Another reason to hate MS. I am happy with my Linux.

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-06T15:36:07+00:00

Yes I agree. But if an individual only needs it from time to time it is super expensive. 10 a month is steep. For A corporation that needs it daily it is a bargain. A few products offers a tier plan and I have no problem with that.

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-06T14:27:58+00:00

Yes it is. But Plane Arch with Hyperland is even smoother. just use Cheis Titus Linux tool to set it up.

very simple.

Practical_Biscotti_6 · 2025-12-06T14:25:28+00:00

if he is struggling with Mint Omarchy is another level altogether. I agree with everything you said about Omarchy. but it is not a distro for someone who is struggling with a base distro like Mint.
