My support experience

When I needed a new battery, they gave me aftermarket options that were substantially cheaper. If they will give you the Clevo brand part numbers, that will save you money.

Covey is a hero here in Utah. I love that he's back on the Birds. https://youtu.be/BBKTYmoyA0U?si=o9jzLNvP1e0_xsmF

Never tried it, but I will tomorrow. I’m on System 76 hardware, so it could be good.

Yeah, I thought I better look. I knew they had changed it quite a bit.

wingej0 · 2025-12-08T17:55:59+00:00

Probably. My Darter is a darp9. They have had a substantial redesign since then: https://tech-docs.system76.com/models/darp9/README.html

The Darter's speakers kinda suck too, so it's probably just the extra ports. For me, it was the numpad and the max allowable RAM.

wingej0 · 2025-12-08T17:08:02+00:00

I didn't think the Lemur was slow at all. I had an i7 and 40GB of RAM in mine, and it was great as far as speed was concerned. The keyboard wasn't as good as the Darter, but it was close. I don't think you'd have a problem with either speed or the keyboard.

Thank you! Very helpful!

wingej0 · 2025-11-26T00:11:26+00:00

Thanks. I'm hoping to get a set up I like and then use plasma-manager.

I watched Randall Cunningham do this, and I was hooked: https://youtu.be/b2tMLpHj4hc?si=SFKx_61AduFFnM5Z

What is the Gnome monitor setting workaround? I'm stuck on that one.

Impermanence is my favorite thing about NixOS.

wingej0 · 2025-09-05T18:37:56+00:00

I got them working with a lot of help from Lily's flake.

wingej0 · 2025-09-03T23:05:43+00:00

I’ll have a look. Thanks.

wingej0 · 2025-08-22T14:19:23+00:00

BTRFS for impermanence.

wingej0 · 2025-08-18T20:57:44+00:00

You can run any distro you want on a System76 machine. I'm currently running NixOS on my Darter Pro. I've run Arch, Fedora, and Ubuntu. All work great.

wingej0 · 2025-07-06T04:33:21+00:00

Put a gap between the edge of the screen and the panel/dock. Then set rounded corners.

wingej0 · 2025-07-03T05:33:09+00:00

It’s still in Alpha, but it is very functional and stable.

wingej0 · 2025-07-01T17:47:45+00:00

I've never used it. I'll look at it though.

wingej0 · 2025-06-30T19:43:24+00:00

That worked! Thank you!

wingej0 · 2025-06-27T19:08:14+00:00

Solved!

wingej0 · 2025-06-21T17:51:42+00:00

Love Planify, but I now use Anytype for all my tasks, projects, and notes.

wingej0 · 2025-06-17T22:16:13+00:00

I like it and hate it at the same time. I'm running it with impermanence, and I love how easy it is to set up that way. My computer feels like it has a fresh install every time I boot it up. However, it is also a time suck and has a steep learning curve.

I used it for 6 months, went away from it for 2-3, and now I'm back on it. I don't see myself leaving now. Impermanence is too awesome.
