Thought I’d create a distinct thread from the previous one asking about daily use, because I really do want to hear more on people’s pain points. Great to know people are generally sounding pretty positive in those posts who recently switched, but want to know your difficulties as well! This way old and new users can share their thoughts, hopefully to inspire a respectful discussion.
I have a lenovo W530 laptop on a lenovo docking station with two external monitors via the docking stations two dvi ports. Just worked in win10 allowing all three screens to be different or spanned.
Is there any guide or plan on how to set this up on mxlinux 25? I’ve looked a bit but not a gui expert.
In general linux has been my daily driver since Slackware but this type of problem is my pain point.
Bluetooth is very buggy, but it’s not too much of a deal breaker.
I’ve noticed most people saying Bluetooth is buggy use Ubuntu or something based off it.
I wonder if true. Haven’t had any issues on Fedora or Arch builds with it in recent years.
The audio quality with my pixel buds on fedora is terrible, and connecting only works half the time.
For your audio quality: Have you installed
pipewire-codec-aptxfrom RPMFusion? Fedora ships without patent encumbered audio and video codecs (and some other software) for legal reasons.
I find it very difficult to run windows programs that don’t have an automatic steam/lutris compatibility setup but require manual configuration. Havent had any luck getting stuff like game/map editors or obscure modding tools to run so far.
Aside from that i am pretty fine, excluding the keyring app. Wish there was an alternative because it never works for saving or providing login data any more.
That’s odd because I’ve had a ton of luck adding random crap to Lutris including obscure model railroad software
Could you elaborate on your process/give me a link to the guide you use(d)?
I would love to be able to mod certain games again.
