electragicianI normally stick with Fedora and derivatives these days, but LMDE has been popping up in my feed recently. I decided to try it out, just to see how it would work. Between having the latest Cinnamon and flatpaks, I'm not impacted by the relatively old packagebase on Bookworm. Also, I need to check out some stuff tonight, but I've been playing Bioshock a bit, and I swear the performance is better on this than Fedora 42... that might be some Wayland / nVidia driver issues rearing up though? I still feel like Gnome is my favorite DE, but Cinnamon isn't bad at all. <a href="https://electragicians.space/tags/lmde" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lmde</a> <a href="https://electragicians.space/tags/linuxmint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#linuxmint</a>

cruzinI switched from OpenSUSE Tumbleweed to LMDE and am happy with the switch so far. I experienced too many issues with NVidia drivers when updating to the point I dreaded updating.<a href="https://atx.social/tags/OpenSUSE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenSUSE</a> <a href="https://atx.social/tags/LMDE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LMDE</a> <a href="https://atx.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a href="https://atx.social/tags/NVidia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NVidia</a>

bananabob :tinoflag:<a href="https://vmst.io/@User47" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@User47</a> We have two laptops. One is running <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/LinuxMint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LinuxMint</a> the other running <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/LMDE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LMDE</a> and both look and feel exactly the same. Both distros can trace their root back to <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/Debian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Debian</a>. LMDE just goes straight there not passing through <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/Ubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ubuntu</a>, like Mint.Never had a problem with our Brother printer in the last 10 years or so. The neat thing about <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a> is that it doesn't cost you money to give it a go. Try it and see if it works.By the way I prefer to use LMDE.

Josh SutphinMy seven-year-old XPS laptop was struggling to hit even one hour of battery life. I could replace the battery (for $100), but Dell's health monitor says the current one is still in good health... which made me suspicious.Long story short, I replaced Windows 10 with LMDE a few days ago, and now I'm getting 4+ hours out of that very same battery.Windows has become such a farce. 😅 <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#windows</a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#linux</a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/linuxmint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#linuxmint</a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/lmde" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lmde</a>

The failure to finish booting occurred after i did a system update after not doing so for several months. OS was <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/SparkyLinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SparkyLinux</a> Testing / semi-rolling. Afaict, whatever caused the damage did a pretty good job:<ul><li>the <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/bootloader" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bootloader</a> had vaporised</li><li>the <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/LUKS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LUKS</a> <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/encryption" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#encryption</a> seems to have been damaged [even booting from a Live usb stick couldn't unlock the drive, my LUKS pswd being rejected despite absolutely certainly being correct]; it accepts my LUKS password during boot, then says "Slot 0 opened", then... just sits there, evermore. Sigh. </li></ul>I considered trying to repair the bootloader via a <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/chroot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#chroot</a>, but even if that succeeded i frankly had little appetite to then do battle with a sulky LUKS. This pc is a very old clunker, spinning rust HDDs only, merely 8 GB RAM, i7 though old model, & i'd repurposed it to be my lounge-room media pc several months ago without bothering to change anything about its extant OS... & tbh Sparky had been wearing a bit thin on me anyway for a coupla months in this role. So i decided not to bother attempting repairs, & instead make a clean break with an alternative distro that i feel should be just about ideal for this use as a media pc, whose only function is to run a browser, & my VPN app, for my nightly movies & shows streaming. As such, i really just don't wanna be arsed with running updates on it often, & generally mollycoddling it like i do with my real pooter [<a href="https://infosec.space/tags/ArchLinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ArchLinux</a> <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/KDE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#KDE</a> <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/Plasma" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Plasma</a>]... i just want it to live happily in the darkness of my timber cabinet, asking little of me re upkeep, & just purring away.

Emma Liv 🇨🇦2/ In so many words, it's just plain *competent* and I love that oh so very much. I literally never have problems with it. If LMDE disappeared I'd probably just use vanilla Debian but I'd really miss the Mint touch.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Mint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mint</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LMDE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LMDE</a>

Emma Liv 🇨🇦1/ People say Mint is a "beginner's distro" and I don't really like that because I think it's great for people of all experience levels. Over the past 15 years I've used just about every major distro there is, and I settled with Mint, and then LMDE (Mint Debian Edition) a few years back because it has sane defaults, it's reliable, rock-solid, easy enough to set up how I like and is desktop focused.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Mint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mint</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LMDE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LMDE</a>
