Installing Gallium OS to Chromebook seemed like a good idea to do when I started at 10:48 my timeā€¦ Almost done.

And done. There were a lot of updates:

I of course will change the background to something else. Any Gallium OS is installed. WOOT. Iā€™m off to sleep.

Done with Debian?

Lol

Nope. Debian is still my primary Linux. It is on my Lenovo laptop. Then in December it will be installed on the XPS 13 I get.
Gallium is on the chromebook. It is designed for the chromebook. I could have done Debian but Gallium is designed to be used for a chromebook. So Iā€™m giving it a go to see how it goes.

Will you cover what made you choose Debian in your video?

Yep. I can go ahead and tell that now. I went with Debian cause it is lightweight and it is designed to be installed on practical any system. I do not say way Iā€™m sticking with it though. The reason I am staying with it is because the long term support of 5 years, the easy for me to follow documentation, and Iā€™ve really enjoyed working with it.

Was Ubuntu out of question?

Nope. Funny thing I tried sereval distros for the laptop including Ubuntu but all of them had serious performance issues on it. Debian has been good on performance. I donā€™t hate working on Ubuntu but there documentation isnā€™t nearly as well laid out as compared to Debian.

Iā€™ll await your video to see if Iā€™m switching to Debian on my laptop.

Hmm, figures. I just found an R9 390X on a bid ā€œfor partsā€ because under mining versions of Linux it doesnā€™t want to mine (which could just be drivers not being installed lol. Or not having a big enough PSU, etc) for $160
Put a bid in at that price and if I win it yay? Theres just over an hour left on the listing so Iā€™ll see about that.
If I get outbid oh well, if not then Iā€™ll have gotten a 390X that may or may not even have issues for $160

For that price Iā€™m willing to risk there being issues. Also the person has not even tried it on Windows yet so thats a good thing (and it still displays and all that, just doesnt want to mine in their configuration)

Iā€™ll also be making a thread post to go along with it. Iā€™ll be covering the things I did and how I did them for Debian like installing wi fi, and video drivers.
Iā€™m doing a little more work on this just in case any decides to give it a try they have the info they need to get going.

Ooooh

You might have a GPU hording issue.

Actually no lol. Sold all mine except the ones no one wanted so. Or the 3 in rigs currently.

Now a 390X would be nice, or crossfire 290X lol.
Preferably 390X though because VRAM

Just like all the crazy cat ladies hoard all the cats that no one wanted :stuck_out_tongue:
