Another Newbie

Post by Emojielumanati »

Hello Linux (mint) world,

I've been using Windows pro versions all of my life started with DOS until about a month ago...

Tried Ubuntu,Manjaro. Mx Linux,Fedora and this amazing distro.

I had so many issues with all the others including Ubuntu.This distro is based on Ubuntu so i don't understand the reason i had problems with it.

My setup is a desktop media server.So far i was able to install Jellyfin with no issues playing back Music and Movies(including 3D) on all of my devices .
Installed AMD graphical drivers running great, auto mount four drives at boot, setup 240GB SATA SSD for Timeshift..loving this feature,
setup samba sharing with no problems,setup steam with protton and remote play for a couple CRPGs also running smooth, the only issue i have so far is a simple cron job for auto shutdown,i have it turning on at 3:30PM through the BIOS and want to shut off at 11:30PM everyday I'm still troubleshooting it.

Anyways i hope to be this excited next time this distro updates to the next version.Thank you Devs for a "mint" Linux Mint
