Two panel meme.

I hope my installation of Mint doesn’t start acting up, because I don’t want to learn whatever it is half y’all are talking about.
I just want it to work, and so far it has.
The only problem I’ve had is nvidia driver updates breaking Blender. So, I need to restore and tell update to ignore that one.
Same, my shutdowns take about about two seconds, although suspend can sometimes take about six seconds (but normally one).
I’m on Gentoo, so it’s probably a leaner install than most.

So I should wish for my computer to start acting up so I can have an educational experience attempting to fix it? No thanks, there’s less frustrating ways to learn.
Also, if you’re trying to go for a greentext-style formatting, put two spaces at the end of your first line.
systemctl poweroff <3
I’m still using
shutdown -h now, even though the-hflag has been pointless for, what, 20 years?edit: looks like sysvinit’s
shutdownstill defaults to single-user mode, so I guess that muscle memory will still be useful if I ever use a Devuan or antiX box.> doesn’t want to learn about Linux > runs Gentoo
Got rid of Vista, installed Mint in 2012. Never a single regret. I am so good at Mint now, it’s hard to be humble.
mine has started acting up quite badly,
-from the start the internet has cut off randomly, likely due to driver issues or hardwareissue. Fixed only by complete restart. There seems to be no pattern, only that machine spirit gets angry if i use internet too much or sometimes just because i woke it up.
-Sometimes when i start the pc it takes really long time to boot and just stays in black screen,
-there are always kind of worrying error messages on startup and shutdown, something about rdseed being broken, something about data being lost, something about a thing hogging the processor and maybe switch to hq_unbound,
-sometimes the pc just refuses to shutdown when shutdown and everything else goes offline but fans keep running.
All of this has just slowly accumulated overtime, without me doing anything that should have caused it.
Yet funnily enough, i’m STILL very much more satisfied than with windows that didnt have that much immidiate issues.
I’ve been using mint for years without learning a single thing about terminal command stuff. It just works. Granted I’m a pretty light user. Light gaming, high seas stuff.
Sometimes this just happens with systemd, it wants to manage every thing as a session and sometimes things running in the session don’t exit like systemd expects.
Also, sometimes logging into a headless ssh session takes quite a while, because systemd is not super responsive to setting up the user session and ssh blocks waiting for that to happen.
