Re: Really impressed with Debian 12!

Everything was answered but battery life, it's about the same as any distro. I get 3 - 4 hours on a 3 year old mid-range HP laptop.

Really impressed with Debian 12!

I installed Debian 12 Gnome on an HP laptop I had that I really did not use hardly at all. I wanted to get a better look at Gnome running a Wayland session. In Ubuntu 22.04 neither session worked all that great... After a week of use I am not having any sort of issue in Debian 12, it's nice and smoo...

Re: Debian Installer Bookworm RC 3

I have Debian on a laptop I hardly ever used. Probably going to start using it again now! The app grid Gnome Shell uses makes the smaller screen better for us with poorer sight, Kind of hard to resist running something built this well with no Ubuntu cruft lurking on it, lol.

Everything is responsive and has a solid feel that is hard to put into words. The default appearance although vanilla, looks nice. I actually wanted to see Gnome as ...

Re: Grub install failed

I had the same thing happen today! The problem turned out that the installer was choosing the wrong NVME.

Re: "No Bills"!!

Count me as a dinosaur too! I have had poor sight all my life, so I much prefer a larger display than my phone has. Also, my phone tracks everything I do, where my Linux systems do not. I use my phone for calls, texting and playing music in my car. I can't do real work with such a small display. I t...

Re: problem with the setting 'turn off the screen when inactive for ... minutes'

For now I will just press the button on my monitor if I really want it shut off. Still like to figure out the cause of the issue.
