sounds like a secure boot issue.

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.

Android apps on flathub will be lovely.

sudo su - ?

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.

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?

A big issue i have it does not show any process running at 100% and i tested Kernel 6.8 to 6.11.Rc.x Nvidia Release, Beta etc I used performance and the default’s on Ubuntu and Fedora, i even tried to disable USB power saving mode that is a common issue with Linux on laptops, you think something like amd_pstate=guided etc will fix it? I seen many types of hardware, driver and firmware bugs over the years but i have not seen one like this in maybe 6-10 years and the last was a Intel atom CPU? and maybe a few Realtek Driver issue’s, i’m going to try Debian unstable etc soon, but i need to buy a USB SSD but my LMDE laptop with a backport Kernel works fine on my other laptop without a Nvidia GPU, and i think Debian’s Kernels has AMD-TEE support as of Kernel 6.9.7?, i have not had to debug hardware in a long time and i have a lot going on for the next few month’s so if up stream does not fix it i can start debugging I’m going to do a little bit like disabling hardware to see if it is the nic or a usb port etc.

please don’t post that site. I just need a few more things to work well with Wayland like Nvidia Drivers.
