my only last issues with KDE was drag and drop and the file manager being buggy.

sounds like a secure boot issue.

I think it was 66~ watts for my Layer 3 8 port 10Gb switch, and Router in use.

they do make some good hardware, just this one they cheaped out on and used 16MB’s of Storage, it really hobbled the device.

The one i linked is both a router and or switch, you can get cheap switches for like $300 that do really well.

many people just buy junk like this https://www.amazon.com/Mikrotik-Router-Switch-CRS305-CRS305-1G-4S/dp/B08437RDM1 it’s cheaper in the long run.

You will need a good 10Gb nic, I have been using Intel nic’s if you use a Intrusion Prevention System that can eat away at the CPU, also more RAM helps like 8GB’s or more for IPS, I use 16GB’s for IPS + ZFS and a nice Switch can help a lot as it can do DNS and the works, more or less i use a firewall box to a Switch and use a Layer 3 Switch for routing, some can do 20+Gb’s routing.

I just do clean installs anymore not a lot to do with Linux as vs Windows, Linux takes me like 30 mins to setup as vs Windows can take hours.

this is what i do, i look it up on the firmware selector and go from there.

someone on reddit had this working 6 mo’s ago, I think they had 2 VM’s running games from one GPU it was on /r/vfio and they said the Windows Driver was being worked on as well.

Android apps on flathub will be lovely.

sudo su - ?

LFS Ftw!

any updates for wifi 7 drivers?

I use ZFS on my workstations with Debian, but yeah full drive is the way to go i think even Linux Mint does full drive anymore, also remember to keep backups.

Form what i seen someone reported a bug that AMD APUs will spam a system with a Nvidia GPU.

nothing running, nothing in top it just has one CPU thread at 100% also this laptop has a NPU and I think it is a Nvidia 4050 Max-Q.

it does not is why i think it maybe firmware or Driver issues etc i will work on debugging it at a later date also it maybe jest bad hardware as well if not i’m not buying anything from HP.

it maybe AMD-TEE issues or a Driver/Firmware bug i really don’t know at this point it looks like i may have a lot of debugging to do does Zen support AMD-TEE?

all DE’s have cpu usage issues and it does not show me whats going on. also i miss the part Nvidia issues was gnome 3 forks only.

The CPU thread runs at 100% with all DE’s/OSes i tested so far and the Nvidia Drivers and Steam had bad issues with Gnome 3 forks, but work fine with Mate and KDE I even gave the Open Kernel Driver a ago before reinstalling a new OS with a a different DE.
