    That’s lame. At least you got it working. Wise choice to nuke the OEM install. Next time install Linux!

      That was actually first thing I did, but resolution scaling is still pretty much broken at least on Plasma and I’m too old to switch DEs. Plus, I had very unreliable connection via my TB docking station that I’ve never experienced with my previous Dell laptop.

      I’ll eventually switch back anyway. I’ve been daily driving OpenSuse for over a decade, but I figured I’ll give windows a chance for now. With WSL, it honestly feels like a polished DE more than a completely different OS.

        Plasma 6 has caused me nothing but problems. But I’m using an Nvidia GPU, and I attribute most of it to the proprietary drivers.
