Man, this took a lot of work. It turns out 20.04.1 versions and above of Ubuntu require efi boot, or at least csm boot with the 1mb bios boot partition. I did originally try 20.10 Groovy Gorilla, but I had to efi install it, and lost access to my other installs. So I abandoned it. Well it turns out, 20.04 installs, not 20.04.1, can can installed in legacy mode. Then you can install update-manager, and upgrade to 20.10, and continue to use legacy mode. Why did I need to do this? Because I have multiple legacy mode installed oses, and I don't want to wipe them out just for one os. And here is Kubuntu 20.10, booted from legacy mode, with kernel 5.8 and my vpn active.... just a little security....

Been using Linux on and off for the last 14 years or so...
Now I'm using Linux full time for the past 5-6 years Pretty much tried every distro's out there but the ones I stick the longest is Mint , Zorin and now Feren OS

Feren OS is the one I like the most specially the new plasma KDE and now base on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Snapshot November 2020)
I like that they put the categories on the left instead of the right using Simple Menu , I think this is a far better way to use it and it is my prefer start up menu
I'm also using Win10 Icons not that I like win10 because I don't but the Icons are really nice...

Well here's Hirsute Hippo, or 21.04 in it's first almost stable form, can only put a link to ImgBB, no idea how to insert it here.
Actually this site only accepts http, and everything is https now. Oh well.

Kubuntu 21.04.png

Worthy to note the memory usage. Less than half a gig to run.

Oh nice, 21.04 Dolphin now has drive space indicators. Check under Devices. Edit: I'm surprised at how much improved Ubuntu is with this version, wine also works better!

Here's something you don't see too often... a BSD distro with a KDE desktop! Absolute pain to install and configure. Still can't get virtualbox additions to work
even though I know how to install them....

Yes, GhostBSD has the xcfe desktop... but I hate mac clones. If you want KDE on BSD, you have to install it. Once you figure it out... only took me 3 years of using linux so I can understand
all the commands and script configs, and still took me 2 days to get it done... it's easy! I can reproduce an install in a fraction of the time now. I'll never use it, I just wanted to prove to myself I
could get the dam thing running!

what do you mean it could do that?



Anyway, my desktop with wayland. Tend to align same customization on my both computers. in that way, it is easier for me to find things when I switch between my laptop and desktop. Plus easier to maintain. Didnt dare running wayland on my laptop since what I have read was wayland and nvidia does not come along well (yet i hope)

I mean I didn't know you could build it like that! Thankyou night.fox for showing me this! This was the most difficult and interesting linux install ever for me.
It's touted as the linux you build. And you do, from scratch. Think Freebsd, and then break it down even more. I learned more about linux in the last 4 days
than the last 3 years. You have to build, install, and configure every part of it. Even virtualbox additions require manual intervention, creating scripts ect.
I almost wanted to hate it, but in the end it's a gas to build, you learn a lot, and when you have a fully functional desktop running, it's very rewarding.
Mines not as pretty as yours, but I like it just as much!

I almost wanted to hate it, but in the end it's a gas to build, you learn a lot, and when you have a fully functional desktop running, it's very rewarding.
Mines not as pretty as yours, but I like it just as much!View attachment 202315

If you want to hate yourself try and build gentoo.

So many screenshots here are featuring SVGA3D which means you guys are running Linux in a VM. What's the point of it?

You'd be surprised. I have to build VMs all the time for linux servers and desktops to build scripts and tools before deploying to production.

Have to try it first in a vm before I try a raw install. And this is one of those I think I will try a raw install. Once you understand how to install every
single section, configure and enable it.... anything is possible. You have to test first before diving in.....
Also birdie... it's just as difficult to install in a vm. In fact vm additions, which you need for video and audio drivers are a bitch.... everything else is the same.

I mean, I have. What about it? Sounds about the same. No source based distro holds your hand.
