What Linux Operating Systems do you like?

That's a near 20 year old OS. I wouldn't have such an old OS anywhere near my hardware! Shove it in a VM!

That's a good shout but the whole point was get a feel of how it responds on bare metal

Anyway experiment done.

Did like ubuntu 25, especially liked some of the easy to get to power mode settings in the toolbar

The one thing that has been a constant disappointment over the past 20+ years is the scrolling and the touchpad motion never got used to it even when using it daily. It's the same even when linux is booted on a macbook pro :confused:
Pity really as if it were not for this I would be back to using linux desktop as my daily driver. Overall an LDE is much quicker and more efficient than windows - pity really

Tails OS I'll definitely keep for when I need it, especially like that it randomises your MAC at boot up

Boo ! Ubuntu 6.06 doesn't have UEFI support and I didn't want to completely bust secure boot on my laptop (no option to simply disable it through the bios just an option to remove keys which I wasn't keen on doing)

On the plus side

Tails OS worked and is slick but the promise of 'all traffic' being routed through tor is a lie .... It's only true if you use the tor browser, even then dnsleaktest tells me that the DNS server being used is cloudflare, I guess that is what the exit node is configured as

Will try the others

Blast from the past, 6.06 was my first ever Linux install. I miss the old Gnome 2.0.
