IT WILL GIVE IT NEW LIFE BRO JUST TRUST ME BRO JUST TRUST ME ON THIS ONE!!!!! OKAY???!!!!!oh btw don't use the new kernels, oh and if your laptop has an IGPU and a DGPU (90% of laptops), they're probably going to be too old for linux support :)Why are Linuxfags such filthy liars? Yeah I love setting up a command first hand for everything I launch because A: Linux doesn't support the BIOS firmware and B: Igpu might shit itself from just opening up a youtube video because its too retarded to understand the concept of igpus and dgpus like windows does.Linux is dogshit for most older laptops. You're better off just unhooking it from the internet and installing XP or windows 7

>>107627358troonix is a cult, it's that simple
>>107627373just be your own kernel driver developer bro
werkz on my masheen
>>107627419yes.skill issue
>>107627358> laptop has an IGPU and a DGPU (90% of laptops)> t. never seen a laptop before
90% of laptops not being supported by Linux is an absurd lie. Who is paying you to be this retarded and spread FUD?
>>107627373>skill issueLol my laptop from 2017 has to use an old kernel that's going to lose support in 6 months but it can run windows 11 just fine. Crazy how my experience with Linux is the complete opposite. I'll admit that customizing everything yourself is neat. Maybe it's just my hardware being not compatible with Linux, oh well.
the fuck you need a gpu for on some underpowered laptopthese gaymer tears are delicious
>>107627567Is it fun spreading lies on the internet? In my opinion, no.
>>107627567Post the specs and proofYou won't because you're a retarded piece of shit and you stepfather beats you.
>>107627674It's just Indians paid to defend their Brahman cow CEO.
>>107627358depends on the laptop,I have experience on this, as I had been using a gen4 intel gpu on a thinkpad,so gen4+ works okgen3 and below is deprecated and you would need the mesa-amber driversalso forget about games for anything below gen7just read the docs you lazy newfag
>>107627358>oh btw don't use the new kernelssaid nobody. i use the latest kernel on my nearly 18yo laptop
>>107627567let me guess, novideo and has to use an old driver that doesn't support a newer kernel?if so, that's nvidia's fault, nothing linux can do about it. same thing happens in windows as well though they tend to support windows longer, which is again, not something linux itself can control.either use nouveau or get something that isn't nvidia

>>107627358>Linux doesn't work because it just doesn't okay???Who is sending these retarded jeets?
>>107627567It didn't used to be like this.Then they added of code of conduct and kicked out all the MMAALLLLLEEEE hackers.They pride themselves of having removed 90 percent of hacker code from the 90s.They removed reiserfs code too recently: which worked till the night it was removed (didn't need maintenance).They bragged they made 100kb space for new wallpapers.
>>107627921Things didn't used to be DDEEEEEPPPREEEECIAAAATED--Linux user since 2001.This is faggot new bullshit by women and gays.
>>107628728If you want to read a reiserfs drive you need an old kernel now too.These people are ripping apart what hackers essentially gave their lives to build.Did it via Code of Conduct (looking a gift horse in the mouth)
>There is a solution
When they mean old laptops they mean laptops from 2018
Laptops are the most supported hardware.
>>107628773>Who is sending these retarded jeets?"If you notice things you are a jeet"--t. feminist faggot shill.You aren't fooling anyone.Not with this.Not with the drone debris /ammo depot.>Explosions just SOUND like that
>>107628962Our Free Software OS has been brigaded by our enemies. Women and their eunich faggots.It's essentially been taken over by people who follow the new testament literally (chop of dix for heaven --matthew 19).

Why does Linus look so old now?
>>107627567My laptop from 2012 runs Linux Mint 22.2 just fine.So yes, it is a skill issue.Nigger.
>>107629021If you're using reiserfs nope it doesn't.They remove support from this and that.You'rs just hasn't gotten chopped.So no: not a "skill issue" Zoomer fuck.And why would you run a modern kernel that lacks grsecurity-pax on a 2012 laptop when you can run grsec-pax patched kernel on such a laptop since they didn't go propretary till 2017???
>>107629035Then don't use it.Retard.
A nice but computer illiterate neighbor of mine got a cheap laptop, 4gb ram Windows 11 computer with 720p screen, really really bad computer. Not sure if stolen. I put Linux Mint on it with Xfce on it. He uses it constantly for 123movies and watching youtube. He is a professional landscaper who cuts grass. True story, hulk hogan redneck looking guys from red states can use Linux, you're not smart
>>107628953that is more unfortunate, but if nobody wants to maintain it, what can they do?
>>107628773The infamous Linus "NVIDIA FUCK YOU" vid happened because NVIDIA Optimus barely works on a Linux laptop.You know? The thing that switches between iGPU and dGPU?
>>107629035the dev of reiserfs was incarcerated in 2008, and the end date linux 6.1, the longest running lts that still supports reiserfs will be retired in 2028. you have literally 20 years to move to another filesystem
>>107627358This is why you don't trust freetards. They constantly lie about the usability of linux desktop and then act surprised people dont't like it.
ITT: Retards seething over the fact that they're stuck with Windows because they're too retarded.Enjoy being nigger cattle.
