With all the distros of Linux and versions of Godot and my knowing little about either, i've a curious situation & wouldn't know who to turn to for help. So initially I'm here on Masto. 🤗
Suddenly every time I load any version of Godot 4 it crashes upon starting new project. I say 'suddenly' but it could be since Mint updates. Its the Debian 12 version of Mint. Might anyone be experiencing similar?

@housepanther I just use #MintLinux then again, I don't run a true server, but I may host a video service on it for digital copies of my media to watch on tv. I mostly use it for games and design.

I'm not that well informed about the variety of distros. I just use what works for me.

My father likes Zorrin.

3 weeks of using as my daily driver. Started with to wet my lips a little. Think I'll switch to soon (by the way).

Been learning about i3 tiling window manager.

Never expected to get such an increase in battery life switching to Linux! 8h battery life is crazy!

Here's an irritating pattern. I run my computer(s) 42/7, Tor and/or BOINC. Both have external drives. Both have Linux freshly flashed with Balena. Both more often than not after a hiatus boot into GRUB. Why?

Contemplating replacing Windows 11 on my now 2 year old Dell Inspiron laptop.

I had Ubuntu on my previous laptop but got sick of it being, well, Ubuntu. Tried it yesterday and the horrible UI ickiness came flooding back.

It seems like Mint is the distro de jour.

Anyone running Mint on a newish Dell laptop?
Does the sexy modern stuff like fingerprint login and touchscreen work?
Does dual boot deal with bitlocker?
Is Mint as great as the blog posts claim?

I lied. I never have used Arch. Settled on Fedora for Computer the Elder, which'll run Tor & BOINC 100%. Good to distrohop occasionally. Sticking with Mint on main.

No idea why Update Manager wants to replace linux-image-5.15.0-121-generic with an unsigned version and is unable to do so. And given that Flatpak security packages are left hanging, is this more than a niggling inconvenience?

E a saga da mudança de paradigmas continua. Já dei adeus ao Windows, Photoshop, Lightroom e X (Twitter). Pra substituí-los dei as boas vindas ao Linux (estou usando Ubuntu no desktop e Mint no notebook), Gimp, Darktable e Mastodon.
No processo de adeus o Instagram q vai dar lugar ao Pixelfed (já em uso).
Hj comecei mais uma mudança, o adeus ao Coreldraw q será substituído pelo Inkscape.
Viva a vida open source.

@dangillmor This little kerfuffle finally pushed me to #mintlinux yesterday. No Windows on my Intel machine anymore.

(I really switched from #MintLinux to #ArchLinux because the former didn't have a emblem for bpytop to display

I was upgrading my #MintLinux from v21 to v22 even though the updater complained of problems because I'm just cool that way.
So anyway, the bare metal install of Mint 22 was effortless. I didn't have to search 3 days for drivers like I did with the v21 install even though it's all the same hardware.
And I'll test my backups from now on, I promise
