LinuxOnThinkPad@lemmy.world•Tell me your experiences of Linux in ThinkPadEnglish
1·15 hours agoIt used to be Thinkpad = perfect Linux machine. YMMV though.
it really depends which thinkpad you have. Things might look like they work out of the box but when you use it daily, you’ll discover some annoying hiccups.
On my P14s AMD running Fedora, everything works except for the touchpad can freeze. This rarely happens but when it does, you can try to wiggle the touchpad to unfreeze. If that doesnt help, reboot is the only option. Also fan runs very high.
On a relative’s T14s Gen 3 running Ubuntu, suspend never works reliably. I tried all fixes, even switching distro. Intel seemed to disable a toggle that allows correct power management in the BIOS. We gave up so we put back Windows 10 to use lol.
My trusted T480s always works. Always. Regardless of distros, the darn thing can do every thing: suspend, hibernate, suspend then hibernare, bluetooth, ethernet, wifi, lid close action, double monitor setup…etc. It ran all kinds of distros: Ubuntu, Mint, Arch, Fedora,RHEL, Peppermint, Slackware, Gentoo. Currently settled on Fedora Silverblue.
The downside with T480s? I got one in silver. The paints are terrible now due to scratches. It is VERY difficult to find silver parts for the T480s at least in my country.
yeh and if i remember correct, there are no options in Samsunf Keyboard to control the clipboard history length. It still remembers what you copied 3 weeks ago…
My recommendation is to use another keyboard. SimpleKeyboard, FlorisBoard…etc.
man i hate those online content that you MUST pay to do homework for the courses. They were over priced and back when i use them, they didnt even grade the homework correctly. E.g. the stupid Mastering series Mastering Physics, Mastering Chemistry and Cengage. I once spent 3 days on a problem because the system didnt like how I wrote the answers. So something like
- coordinate (3x,space herey)
instead of what they want:
- coordinate (3x,y)

1·7 days agoyeh at first i was like why all Arch users reference the wiki like its their Bible. Until I use Arch and troubleshoot myself, i would know how detail it is. You can find basically.everything about Linux there.
The downside? They need to structure the layout better. It is soooooo easy to misread or skip over stuff.

28·8 days ago“…Based on listening to two and a half episodes of Dual Boot Diaries and a brief text conversation with Will, I’m going to install CachyOS, an Arch-based distro optimized for gaming on modern hardware, with support for cutting-edge CPUs and GPUs and an allegedly easy setup…”
One of the most important lessons I learned from using Linux: Follow the packs, use the distros that a lot of people use not just some recommendation on some ranking sites / youtube vids. Ffs, might as well use vanilla Arch at that point so you can find answers faster. . Even Mint or Ubuntu LTS is a solid option.
The problem with new distros is that it is very hard to find answers to problems. General questions? Sure you can find help. Some bugs that mess up your system? You better pray to the GNU Gods that your distro spins are not that different from the original, e.g. Regolith’s i3wm vs normal i3wm…

3·30 days agothe fucked up thing here is how did they find his reddit account? That post was years ago and he didnt even use some stupid username like “RealGrahamPlatner”. Makes you wonder if those reddit post removal tool work at all…

I stopped distro hop a while ago, and fixing tiling configs is not worth it anymore for me.

9·1 month agoneofetch is pretty but it is slower than the alternatives: pfetch, fastfetch…etc. I either use those 2 or no fetch whatsoever: I want my terminal pops up and is ready to type.





these people deserve a big FUCK YOU to the face, in front of an audience.
