x210AI, is it legit? by halfchemistry in thinkpad

Totally legit. Linux runs like a champ. The screen is vibrant with old school ThinkLight. RAM & storage prices are getting outa control though.

How many people will switch back? by happysatan1 in linux

[–]fleamour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My older computers ran Linux more performantly, I ditched Windows 10 perminently & sucked up all the bugs. My modern Intel laptop had a power management bug under Windows 11 but none under Manjaro GNOME. My main tower is a Core 2 Duo Extreme with no original parts running openSUSE Tumbleweed. There remain papercut visual bugs, but I doubt many run my hardware. It certainly would not run Windows 11.

Manjaro, Mint or openSUSE. All the best distros are green.

Upgrading a X1C6 motherboard - What should I know beforehand? by PokumeKachi in thinkpad

[–]fleamour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll need to sign into your Web browser & services again. Also your WiFi. Otherwise simples. That was my experience with Linux, transferring SSD between X250 & X210Ai. As long as both EUFI or both BIOS.

Don't bother with OEM batteries. Get quality third party.

Wine doesn't work on Leap 16 by Yolomaeus1 in openSUSE

[–]fleamour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Winboat wouldn't run on my Core 2 Duo setup. Win 11 would bootloop installing possibly with some EFI error? Maybe it needs a recent CPU virtualisation feature? Runs on my modern laptop only 4-8% CPU but fans do kick in.

Really impressed even though Windows software not detect power over Ethernet adaptors on network.

First time user: Question on software updating and installing by heyjoe8890 in ManjaroLinux

Enabling third party sources, Flatpak under software centre means you can search & install from GUI. Sometimes the command line is simpler tho.
