Hello. I’m planning on getting a little Lenovo ideapad duet 3i for general media creation n consumption. Emphasis on being able to sketch.
I want to replace win 11 s (default os) on it with a Linux distro. I heard that gallium is nice n lightweight (designed to run on Chromebooks, …which is also related cus the other computer consideration is an ideapad duo Chromebook… and these computers are very comparable.) Are there any other lightweight distros I should consider? I’m also worried about being able to run windows programs like CSP (main drawing program). N games n other things. Also would this mess up the pen-touch drivers/systems?
(Note: I know little about computer systems. And this is my first time actually setting up Linux)
I see, I’ll try those. Debian flavour mint gets multiple reccs, hm. I knew about mint being newbie friendly. Didn’t know it has diff flavours.
“Regular” Mint = Ubuntu backend (Nvidia support) Mint Debian = More lightweight, but only Cinnamon and bad option for Nvidia gpu
curious if ubuntus slowness is related to the graphics. hm. i found someone running csp on mint cinnamon using playoblinux. so thheres some more points to mint, haha.
I have no clue. I bet Ubuntu just ships with more processes running. Stsrting from booy and continuing during the use.
