What are you using to create the bootable installer? Rufus may have options to help with this.

Also, MX includes a bunch of system rescue tools. If grub-install doesn’t work by itself, maybe chroot would help?

The MX community forums might be a good place to ask, too. Lots of power users there.

Try MX Linux. It runs on a toaster, and I’ve never found a machine it wouldn’t install on.

Slop

I’m not sure how to reply to this.

Mainly because my own math skill is unrelated to processor technology of the late 1990s.

Hey now, I’m enjoying his nonsense. It’s fun to see what holes people dig themselves into.

You must be real fun at parties.

It’s only 30 years away!

Just like it was 30 years ago.

3D graphics were incredibly primitive back then. There really weren’t “3D processors” as we know them today.

On top of that, CRTs masked many of the weirdest graphical artifacts - the shimmering we see on modern screens was much more of a blur on screens at the time.

It’s fun to look back at the PlayStation and the N64, and to see how each of them handled limitations in a different way.

If your therapist told you that, they have a moral and legal right to report it.

Your therapist is doing the right thing. Your family is actively harmful and you need to get out of there somehow.

You can do that at the same time as beating yourself with the purple dildo

Yeah, if the resolution is the only issue? Keep three screens, you’ll enjoy the wrap-around. Especially for racing, a single screen will leave you wanting.

Not to say you definitely won’t like a single screen. But you know why you like what you like.

The main question: what about your current setup are you dissatisfied with?

If you can share that, it’ll help with which option might be better now.

That opinion is a weird hill to die on.

I’d rather heat a tot in good condition.

Yeah, a lot comes down to how comfortable the user is messing with things.

KDE starts off looking simple, then start to feel super complicated, and then goes back to seeming very straightforward - all depending on a user.

Your perspective is valid, though a lot of window manager/DE preference is completely subjective. So everyone’s going to have a different experience.

Like others have said, it’s very dependent on work flows and personal preference.

I dislike the MacOS interface. Gnome and its derivatives aren’t that, but it borrows enough design cues that I don’t find it intuitive. (Though I recognize why other people do find it intuitive.)

Most other DEs jive with me. I can effortlessly switch between Plasma or XFCE. I like Enlightenment and LXQT, but generally don’t go for them first. Cinnamon is fine, but I like most others more.

I like to play with things. I’ll get my hands on a beat-up old laptop, try a few distros and desktop environments on it, then find it a new home. Linux makes it great to experiment like that.

Counterpoint: no you don’t
