I think its a bit easier to use than kdenlive. I’d say it’s a little bit less full featured than kdenlive

That’s what bunsenlabs is for.

I got archcraft.

Lucky me. It’s also from India which is fun.

Gobolinux?

No one mentioned Bunsenlabs or Crunchbang Linux here, but they aren’t really that obscure.

I ironically, Chrome OS Flex might be the way to go. Dead simple, uses A/B updates and is just that, for people who just need something to work.

I use Bunsenlabs and like it a lot

The atom cpu in this has a powervr sgx545 gpu which is barely supported by anything. Ubuntu 12.04 has some support but it’s only 2d acceleration.

But the last release for it will be in December.

There is the fork mentioned in the forum post here.

I don’t use Syncthing and don’t have an Android phone so I can’t really speak for it in terms of functionality.

Id make it 2 or 3 gb. That being said, 1 gb is fine for such a light install. I have a similarly specced pentium M machine running modern debian with OpenBox. For heavier tasks, it was hitting swap (using a web browser). Upping it to 2 gb ram fixed that.

Edit: this also came with an ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 gpu which probably has a bit more support than the PowerVR gpu in the Atom.

There’s quite a few. I have bunsenlabs helium installed on a 32 bit pentium M laptop. It’s very usable, for a 20 yo single core machine. For basic things, it’s still fine. I do have some gpu acceleration though which is a benefit.

OpenBox but that’s a window manager, not a DE.

I was thinking embedded clients would be the bigger issue. Stuff like POS machines, that sort of thing.

At least on my pavilion, it’s just one simple daughter board for one of the USB ports. It’s the one I use the most. I can replace it easily if it breaks. The pcb is also very simple so it ends up being very cheap.

The square shaped one threw me for a loop the first time I worked in a computer with one.

Very Andersen powerpole esque

In my experience, USB c is soldered to the main board while the plug is a small module thats attached to the module. It’s easier to replace a small module than replace a whole USB c port. Ideally it’d be on a seperate board too. But it might be a bit more complex.

My sister broke one of the two USB c ports on her Thinkpad and if the second one breaks (both support charging), I can’t fix it easily without sending the motherboard out for repair and spending like $200.

Edit: you can support both USB c and DC plugs. My laptop can (HP pavilion).

Yeah but then it isn’t as light (but 250 grams is nothing tbh). The 64Wh one is 888 grams. Still less than a kilo which is very impressive. Just under 2 lbs.

I also hate the lack of USB ports now. That’s about average for the “nice” laptops of this day and age. I hate juggling around my peripherals bc I don’t have enough type c ports. I do hope it’s a barrel plug for charging and not only USB C pd.

That would be awful. i have a laptop at roughly 31 Wh capacity and it was basically unusable with the 11th gen i5 intel cpu. 2 hours of usable battery life. Take into consideration that batteries tend to live at 80% capacity for a long while and then you realize that laptop will have a 24Wh capacity. Basically two smartphone batteries worth of capacity

Trying to disable the lid close sensor on my laptop. My issue is twofold. It’s a convertible (pavilion x360) and I’m using bunsenlabs Linux.

Did yours overheat really badly? My 11th gen i5 pavilion did. Repaste, everything. Just ran super hot on battery. It’d kick on the fan and goodbye battery

I run puppy Linux 4.20 on a p3 laptop with 192 mb of ram. It’s fine. It feels as heavy as windows me. A p2 with 32 mb of ram might be a bit tough.
