Gcompris is great and you can find in Gnome Software manager.

I don’t know anything about wireless trackpads, but I love my workflow with Gnome and I know it wouldn’t be doable if I wasn’t working on a laptop.

Using the keyboard just wouldn’t be the same.

Yeah. At first you think that you still need some Windows programs so you dual-boot, and then you discover that you don’t need these programs anymore😅

I don’t remember how I did it but I guess it wasb’t so difficult since I had no previous experience.

But I think I only used it once and then moced to something else.

I heard that the Playstation 3 would be able to run something called Linux and I wanted to become some kind of Neo😅

Then I went on and off between Windows and Ubuntu until fully switching to Linux around 2020.

Running Fedora with Gnome these last few years.

I have a 2012 MacBook Pro.

This is what used to enable RPM fusion in Fedora and get the broadcom drivers:

https://doc.fedora-fr.org/wiki/Dépôt_RPM_Fusion

It solved every problem but I have to redo the operation maybe once every two years.

On my wifés 2012 MacBook Pro, I had the same broadcom related problem and installing Rpm fusion solved it https://ostechnix.com/how-to-enable-rpm-fusion-repository-in-fedora-rhel/

I didn’t know this. But I guess the bank has to allow it.

Last time I checked my banks were only allowing you to do such things through an app or at the bank (which is far from my village).

Yeah I wish Framework, Tuxedo or Stillbook produced a Linux phone🤞

Yeah it’s part of the 2 factors authentification process.

Back in the days you received some card reader generating a code, but that ain’t the case anymore…

So Linux would need to have a native version of these apps or a way to efficiently emulate Android or iOS.

In my country, for all the banks I use, I need to have an app on my phone to access their website with my Linux computer.

So a Linux phone would need to provide this as I can’t be without access to my accounts.

Agreed as I’m using a Surface Go 1 with typecover (keyboard) as a daily driver with Fedora.

I’d get a used one to avoid giving money to Microsoft.

I’ve read 70% of your guide and it seems great. I just hope people (not on Lemmy) will easily find it on the web when looking for help.

Good work for our community 👍

Let’s hope it’s gonna find a manufacturer to build a TV with it, or at least to open its bootloader.

Interesting.

Does every smart TV has a hotel mode?

I have a Philips 55PUS7394 and I couldn’t find one by quickly searching on the web.

It would be lovely if we could just boot a TV specialized Linux distro.

Sadly I don’t think it’s going to appear soon except if someone (a conpany) decides to create a niche product filling that need.

To be honest I don’t think so.

When using Peertube or Xoutube I always use 720p to avoid stuttering.

But for everything else it has been performing well for 5 years.

I have a Surface Go1 8GB of Ram with a typecover keyboard and it’s been great running Fedora Workstation for years.

I use it most’y docked to a bigger screen but it’s my daily driver.

I understand your feeling as I like the Apple classy touch and would love to find it elsewhere.

I guess you’re gonna have to compromise on something as I don’t know about any laptop bring all of these things.

Surface Go 1: Had problems with my bluetooth mouse being slow to be detected. Also sometime it’s slow until I connect and disconnect the screen it’s hooked up to. Otherwise works flawlessly.

MacBook Pro 2012: Sometimes I have to reinstall some drivers for the wifi. Otherwise works flawlessly.

Both run Fedora 42. So I’d advise you to not give up and maybe just switch distro👍
