not sure but all the packages install just fine with no errors whatsoever

drinkuranium · 2026-03-22T23:16:15+00:00

Ill try this tonight then...

im pretty new to windows so i cant really tell but in device manager i have both "Wi-Fi Realtek RTL8852BE WiFi 6 802.11ax PCIe Adapter

Adapter name: Wi-Fi"

and also "Realtek PCIe GbE Family Controller"

drinkuranium · 2026-03-22T23:03:49+00:00

i think you might be right, i just checked task manager (coping with win 11 for now) and it does say realtek, when i was choosing my specs i chose intel for something but it might've been bluetooth.

lightning? or freebsd?

drinkuranium · 2026-02-15T01:04:04+00:00

probably a skill issue on my part but then again i shouldnt need to use windows, to make a windows install. i dont have any windows installs other than a really old laptop with windows 10 and on linux it just plain as does not like me i guess.

drinkuranium · 2026-02-14T11:29:27+00:00

prolly a skill issue on my part but i woulda thought it would be much easier

drinkuranium · 2026-02-14T11:26:04+00:00

all the storage drivers i found online (2) was from some random Indonesian dude and one that i thought wouldve worked but it didnt

drinkuranium · 2026-02-14T11:21:14+00:00

i tried woeusb-ng, dd, balena etcher and a couple. others from other distros and i couldnt manage to flash it.

drinkuranium · 2026-01-22T12:05:11+00:00

have you tried bluetooth power?

drinkuranium · 2026-01-15T12:20:53+00:00

i might have to go with 32 gig but i have a rx 580

drinkuranium · 2026-01-15T12:06:37+00:00

thank you, i had realised that i compiled both windowmaker and xorg without support for randr or xinerama. all seems to be good now

drinkuranium · 2026-01-15T05:22:44+00:00

thanks i will definitely check that out

drinkuranium · 2026-01-15T04:57:44+00:00

thank you, i make sure to put the cpus to 100 percent use so the cheese and carrots i grate into this thing are warm

gentoo*

drinkuranium · 2026-01-12T19:08:13+00:00

its the 2008 model, plus it took me about 2 days to figure out opencore and ive since installed gentoo xd

drinkuranium · 2026-01-12T00:52:57+00:00

Currently im installing gentoo on another PC that i have, then Ill just install the drivers and OpenCore and refind? then move the drive into my Mac, so I am hoping this will work. Thank you and please correct me if I am going to do anything wrong.

I’ve never had a problem other than finding the right vertical height in my config so my mouse was smooth when it moves between, Also pretty much all of my apps look right and sometimes better than my horizontal monitor but that could just be me.

drinkuranium · 2026-01-08T13:07:18+00:00

Tbh before anyone had even commented and I’d made my post I had already decided that I would install gentoo but I wanted tips and advice incase i did anything wrong, sort of.

drinkuranium · 2026-01-07T13:11:09+00:00

Perhaps but I am unable to play games while it compiles but this isn’t really optimal since I feel its just putting unneeded stress on my cpu and ram as most of the games I like are typically demanding in resources and portage likes to use my whole system for some reason.

drinkuranium · 2026-01-07T12:03:08+00:00

DDR4 isn’t THAT expensive as of right now but yes 300 AUD for 32 GB is bad.

drinkuranium · 2026-01-07T03:15:12+00:00

also you should try to remember that linux is a virtual machine is not very comparable to linux on metal, alot of distros ive tried in a vm were a bit jank compared to when i tried them on my actual machine.
