I added a second SSD to my windows laptop and installed Linux on it. I configured the BIOS to boot from this second SSD. Painless!

Based on your post I wouldn’t touch this distro with a 3 mile long bargepole.

Because Google don’t want you to export your photos. They want you to depend on them 100%.

Do you have room for 2 SSDs in the case? If so, install windows on one and Linux on the other. Then set the BIOS to boot from the Linux disk and grub will let you decide which OS to boot from. This way, windows won’t interfere with Linux.

I’ve been using this for months and it works well. Except when I hit a Debian bug that configured grub to not look for OSes on other drives! But that was fixed.

Maybe the theme is just broken? Perhaps it’s abandoned and old? I don’t know, I’m just guessing.

Except Firefox’s bookmark system on android is absolute crap and looks hideous.

Yeah, you’re right. I completely forgot about the conspiracy theorists etc.

Interesting tech, shame about the content.

They are, it’s full of crypto folk and not much else.

Single click was always the first setting I changed.

That sucks, I used to use them.

I installed a second SSD into my new laptop and installed Debian on it. I set the new drive as the primary boot drive so windows doesn’t get a say and only loads when I select it from the boot menu. This way windows can’t trash the boot loader when it updates.

Be afraid, be very afraid.

Different kernel?

Does loading the kernel module help, assuming it’s installed?

sudo modprobe vboxdrv

Are they all legit?

I’ve been using Debian with Cinnamon desktop for a while. I tried XFCE but it didn’t click and I really disliked how you added an app launcher to the dock. Cinnamon gets out of my and just works for the little that I need.
