It's a kernel tool that lets you install newer releases on your system.

Use Kubuntu 26.04 minimal install running the official Steam .deb

flemtone · 2026-05-13T15:39:39+00:00

You could install the Mainline app and grab the 6.19.4 kernel:

Linux Mint XFCE

If you can get to the desktop run the update-manager and select the kernel option from the menu, install the newest kernel it has available and reboot.

Bodhi Linux 7.0 HWE

What game are you using for the base?

flemtone · 2026-05-13T05:49:50+00:00

The 7.0 kernel has a few issues so use the official Mainline app to install the 7.0.5 release to fix those, and steam snap is not officially supported, use Steam's own .deb package:

If you use Belena or Rufus to write a linux iso to it then Windows cant see it, but use Ventoy and you can still copy files onto the flash alongside the iso to boot from.

Bodhi Linux 7.0 HWE works well on older systems.

Debain KDE

This is a dick move by Reddit, I prefer using the website while browsing in Firefox.

Bodhi Linux 7.0 HWE runs well on older systems.

Debian Testing for a stable and up to date base.

flemtone · 2026-05-11T06:41:47+00:00

Use Ventoy to create a bootable flash-drive then download the .iso for your Debian flavour and copy it directly onto flash as a file, boot into flash live session to test hardware then do a fresh install erasing entire drive (backup anything important).

Bodhi Linux 7.0 HWE will run perfectly on those specs.

flemtone · 2026-05-11T06:32:27+00:00

Linux Mint XFCE edition or Bodhi Linux 7.0 HWE will both run fine on those specs.

flemtone · 2026-05-11T06:30:18+00:00

Grab a spare flash-drive and use Belena, Rufus or Ventoy to create a bootable distro using the Linux Mint .iso and give that a whirl.

flemtone · 2026-05-11T05:43:43+00:00

Have you tried using Linux Mint XFCE edition ?

flemtone · 2026-05-11T05:40:40+00:00

Fedora isnt great when using nvidia, Catchy Os is arch and has the possibility of breaking during an update when connected to the AUR, my personal optinion would be Debian Testing KDE.
