Quoting: TermyDoes anyone know what the hell they are including to make it that big? Even with several proton-versions preinstalled it shouldn't get up to 10GB, let alone 24.
Or are they maybe going in the silverblue-direction and include a bunch of redundant libraries?

It's a regular Linux distro that can function like a regular desktop OS, so expect there to be drivers for all sorts of peripherals, entire library sets for GTK and Qt, the entire KDE desktop, as well as other OS tools like editors, store clients, media players, etc.

Quoting: nullI'm rooting for it, but all I want is the os to play with

Why would you need the OS without the Deck itself? It's pretty much an Arch with Steam Client on it, you can get that right now.

Now, if we can only get a laptop with the same concept, i.e. an AMD CPU paired with a GCN GPU and a DDR5 RAM, no Vega, no hybrid graphics nonsense, that would be awesome.

This is the only game I'm playing nowadays. Highly recommended.

I find it hard for KDE to come on top when the most popular distros default to Gnome, but you never know, things can change, and KDE's UI stability might help them in the end to become the biggest player. But even then, I doubt being the biggest will mean having a majority of the market share, I think it just means the KDE user base may fragment less than Gnome's user base.

Quoting: eldarionSo why are they not switching to KDE? Creating a good DE is no easy task and I don't think they have the means to do that or are they prepared to support it in the long run. I have zero expectations on this.

I bet someone in System76 tried Rust and loved it, so decided to start a project for the sake of using Rust.

If only we have any decent Linux gaming laptops. The numbers could've been higher.

Quoting: inckieI'm never gonna buy a laptop from TUXEDO, simply because they are manufactured by Clevo.

Don't buy Clevo.

What's wrong with Clevo?

I'm using System76's Darter Pro, which is also a Clevo laptop. The build quality is close to garbage, but it otherwise works flawlessly.

Still no AMD dGPU option?! No thanks. I guess I'll have to wait for Intel Arc.
