I used to use Fedora on my Asus gaming laptop, and loved it. More recently I’ve chosen to switch over to Manjaro, because I wanted something based on Arch that was more lightweight than Garuda. Gotta love that Linux life.
I had a much better experience with Manjaro over EndeavourOS because it supported more of my hardware, but to be fair I’m using an Asus gaming laptop. When I build my next desktop, I’m gonna try a straight Arch install.
What the hell, calculators with color screens? Back in my day our graphing calculators were black and gray and we were told to be happy, damn it.
I did select a number of programs to install during setup so I had everything I needed. Spot on!
That’s really cool! Didn’t know that. Thanks for sharing, since I’ve just subscribed to the community.
Sorry about that. I’ll keep that in mind if this gets taken down. Thanks!
I’ve been using those on my Fedora install without a hitch. I think I’m gonna go for the Garuda install today after I finish backing things up. Excited!
Woah, you were involved in the project! That’s really cool. I’ve had Garuda on my mind for a while, and earlier today I was able to boot it off the live USB with NVIDIA proprietary drivers. That’s a really good sign for me, so I think I’m gonna go for it once I’ve backed things up.
I have an ASUS ROG laptop running Fedora 39 right now. The reason Fedora is popular with these laptops is that the controller that switches between the two graphics cards is native to Fedora. It’s explicitly recommended on the site.
EDIT: It looks like there are more distros that work on ROG laptops since I did it. Pretty cool!
Sonic and Knuckles is one of the best games out there because of the cartridge slot on top. Playing Sonic 2 as Knuckles was so much fun.
I’ve been running Fedora 39 on my ASUS gaming laptop because it’s the only OS that natively supports the utility to deal with the discreet graphics card. I was thinking about using bazzite for the next gaming desktop I build. What do you think about it? I’ve been using Nobara on my Surface Pro 4, but I can’t update using dnf anymore because it would alter some protected drivers, and I don’t want that issue with another distro.
Celeste is a wonderfully brutal game. I love the characters and the whole idea behind, “conquer a hard thing just to say I did it.” To be fair, that is what it feels like when climbing mountains or other large rock structures
Plants vs Zombies is the best tower defense game out there. Y’all can fight me on that.
That always makes me think of this great moment from “Men In Black.”
I heard GLADOS as I was reading that too. I loved both games. Took me a long time to beat the single player of Portal 2, but damn it was worth it
Yes! I wholeheartedly agree with you. There are pieces of GNOME I wish I could bring into KDE, and vice versa.
I’ve been running Nobara on my Surface Pro 4, which is based on Fedora. It comes with all the surface drivers built in, which really helps. It’s been working pretty well for me.
Sleek is a great way to describe GNOME. It’s really pretty and slick, and I was sure happy with how it worked. Plus, with all my google accounts hooked into GNOME, Evolution just pulled all that info and gave me real easy access to my mail. I wish KMail did the same thing.
That’s why I’m calling it a playground fight. They’re both good, but right now I’m loving KDE. GNOME is really beautiful. I organized the taskbar in KDE to be similar to default GNOME, but with some extra stuff that I’m digging too.
The issue I had with my Asus ROG laptop was that EndeavourOS didn’t support the volume buttons on the keyboard, along with some other keys. It was annoying enough that I went to Manjaro.
