Never have I ever successfully updated a fedora system. It was always a reinstall.

Graphics driver for sc8280xp are already a thing. There are more issues in convenience daily driving linux, currently. From the top of my head:
I suspect that these issues are common between their ARM chips and will be addressed for both chips almost simultaneously. But I have no real idea on kernel development. And their documentation is only shared with linaro so one can only guess.
If you run qemu from CLI you get a window which grabs keyboard and mouse automatically. Ctrl+Alt+G (from the top of my head) releases the input devices so you can again navigate the host. The window is otherwise a default window for you display server.
I find qemu from CLI way more transparent then these GUI-Applications since each vm is a readable, single script. So I recommend this.
Regarding installation on iMac bare metal: If the kernel supporta virtualization you can expect to work flawlessly. If you have a dedicated graphics card you can only pass this (as well as dedicated devices like hdd’s) if you main board supports IOMMU.
If it does all you need is the qemu man page to setup your vm.
Why I prefer a qemu script to any GUI alternative:
The entire script for passing RAM, GPU and a HDD is about 10 lines max. A default vm with tcg-emulation e.g. via libvirt etc. can pass 50 lines of xml easily.
I recommend giving it a try. My workflow is: Place the install script in some directory. The default run script is placed in my ~/.bin/ You can combine these scripts but I find it way simpler to separate them (you would need more elaborate options mounting devices).
Modularity of software ranked way too low.
Adding a terminal multiplexer. Now I understand why UNIX is an IDE.
It is bearable but feature complete. Every month linaro and the community add functionality. The most recent things include a custom power-domain mapper implementation and apparently camera support.
If you are running wayland you can simply install any os and its working oob.
The laptops weight and heat production is awesome. Very practical. Also the body is exceptional sturdy and worth mentioning (even in comparsion to a T14, e.g.).
But:
I followed almost all patches on the lkml. It appears to me that the upcoming chip can benefit from the sc8280xp hugely. It sufficies for my use cases but I promised myself a little better, yet.
Man. I bought Lenovo ARM. I wanted to buy a tuxedo so badly. Now I’m stuck with this thinkpad.
I only knew of debian. In case you can remember other occurrences, feel free to namedrop !!
I’m happy on Debian! I wouldn’t switch, I am not disliking QT or GTK. The first iteration needs to reuse these components anyways!
I am not against GTK+. I love XFCE. My motivation is to implement my workflow in wayland from scratch so that I can reuse everything needed.
Even though I am using okular and xfce and have all dependencies around I would like to keep it to my minimum.
Lightly weight clients should form an os (Ger: OS/BS).
It requires to be understood and written easily . British English is the common denominator in written English because it is more precise.
Language shall be formulated so that it matches european, common grammar - like this.
This should get their slogan. Any linux should have this slogan :) Have fun on your endeavors!!
You can use LFS to… Install targeted-kernel Setup AUR/pacman as package manager Use a minimal DE if needed. Otherwise just use the x.org kiosk to start your applications without any de.
Corporate rated this strategy viable
Mama, look at me. I’m talking to a .com-owner!!
You are awesome for providing an alternative. Would you mind letting me know what’s the average monthly cost running your infrastructure and if you are paying it as individuals ?
Yesterdsy I stumbled over this: www.mojeek.com Apparently has its own index.
I think he’s coming from here:
As an developer you create a solution to a problem from yours. You release it under a FOSS license.
Your job is done - You shared your work. The community may find your project useful and builds upon it. Their interest is to get their changes upstream. You have no obligation to help with onboarding and implementing features for others.
So if they are requesting a merge you may reject it since it does not meet your standards. Maybe you have to make your stance clear and create a CONTRIBUTION alongside your code.
With this mindset you wouldn’t hang out on a non-indexable platform.
Your project mostlikely is requesting explicit participation. Maybe this is the point in between you guys.
Now go on with the discussion :)
Especially on servers I make sure to attend in the software packages survey. Just so that the holy-gods and kings of maintainers are aware of me, the peasant running old packages.
No yield saya. I’m sorry.
I can’t honestly recall or put my finger on it what I did wrong.
Choose fedora because it used my laptop subwoofer and wasn’t a rolling release. I remember each time (x2) reading about how to update the distro and each time my system was completely borked. I went to debian, read upon alsa, made my subwoofer work with a homegrown script and never looked back.
To this day I am wondering if people recommending redhat are trolls or paid.
