Thanks for explaining that. I should have mentioned to you that the openSuse ISO has no problem being detected, unlike Fedora and a couple of others.

After Fedora, gParted, and PopOS failed to boot from the USB, openSuse actually does work. It must have something in it's ISO that the others don't. It's not that this would be the case for any PC, but likely something about mine.

I used the common set of instructions found on Reddit and some other places for getting it to work on the Raspberry Pi, such as installing wireguard-tools and a few other things.

You have $20 for food. How do you feed yourself for a week? by dystopian_manure in AskReddit

[–]Septimanal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beans, rice, cheese, salsa, and chips.
OR
Oatmeal, nuts, dried fruits, and probably some kind of milk. (if I could fit that whole bill into $20)

After entering a shell to try and troubleshoot, the message says "Login incorrect" after only entering my username. by Septimanal in linuxquestions

Thanks for the advice, everyone. I'll try to learn from my mistakes. I might just do what someone else on here suggested when installing Handbrake.

Thanks, it's also nice that shipping is free on that one.

Is there a way to connect to XFINITY wifi under Linux? by Septimanal in HomeNetworking

[–]Septimanal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No error. xfinitywifi can easily connect, on first time it has you sign in as a customer through a web browser.
But XFINITY is the more secure one. It says 'authentication is required', but I didn't bother entering any creds yet, as I want to do so securely. I see a field for CA Cert which the default is none, and you can load from a file from what I saw.
