Hey guys,
From late-October to Christmas I used Linux Mint on my primary computer - without another OS installed.
I loved it, however I had to move back to Windows and these are the reasons why...
Xorg.conf
I think this corrupted itself an amazing 5 times during the 'short' period I had Linux installed, I've had this issue happen on many other occasions when I've had a distro installed on a laptop.
It seems weird that such an advanced operating system would use such a primitive thing.
Lack of games
I read today that CS:S and CS:G are now on Linux, but it still lacks any of the 'big name' games like Football Manager and Battlefield (although I haven't even looked at the latter since November)
Performance dips
I noticed toward the end of the trial that I was seeing performance dips when running simple applications (Firefox, LibreOffice..) - is this just a issue with my installation or is it a normal thing?
To me it seemed that everything ran fine for the first few weeks of usage and eventually the OS gradually fell apart.
