Try using alsamixer, check for channels that are muted.

Also check if your distro is saving and restoring alsa settings every boot and remove the settings file

Grub should be able to boot mint fine, just know where grub is installed and which disk boots the system before formatting anything. To test, unplug the windows disk and see what happens

Unfortunately it forced all existing users to submit as well, but we already gave it a bunch of photos of ourselves before the beast had revealed itself

I think xvnc does this with vnc. If using gnome start gnome-remote-desktop with systemctl --user start gnome-remote-desktop then use grdctl to set it up (or the settings gui). I’ve had luck with rdp on a Wayland session this way.

And just like that gold is a proof of work currency. Too bad those economics will change as gold becomes less scarce. Buy mercury now!

Also, what do you mean by crashes? Kernel panic? Random app death because the oom killer was activated should be expected when pushing the memory limits on Linux.

I’m running 8 and 32 in my T490, seems to work fine. I’m building software and leaking memory like crazy and it’s never been weird. I don’t see why 8 + 32 would be any different than 8 + 16 other than capacity.

Doesn’t the channel balance not matter that much? Like operations can be done in parallel. I always thought the benefits came from reading different things from each ram chip not synchronizing them byte for byte.

Check your disk usage with df -h

When my machine gets weird it’s always out of disk space.

By choice

Let’s see how this goes then revisit the question.

Totally possible.

I recommend making room on your drive using windows tools to shrink the windows partition before letting your Linux installer add new ones, or doing it manually. This is just so that no weird filesystem bugs show up after resizing your ntfs filesystem with Linux tools. Never had a problem with them but it’s probably good to use Microsoft tools to mess with the Microsoft filesystem just in case.

Maybe watch your system logs on the server when it’s having trouble, could be something random.

Mostly just try Linux on it 😹 Don’t install it just run from a flash drive or something

This meme brought to you by outdated packages in the official repo

10/10

I feel mislead, none of the apps actually run on Linux.

Since 6.12 the Preempt rt patcheshave become canon.

As for older kernels, there’s a thread Here but idk what the current situation is

Bee exploitation free honey

Pretend it’s 1995 before I had Internet access

What level of involvement are you looking for in setting up the host os?

I’m a NixOS fan because once you painstakingly get the configuration file set up you basically never need to do it again. If you don’t need anything outside of nixpkgs it’s easy, otherwise it’s terrible. Docker is available in nixpkgs.
