Totally get using others if something isn’t working. I’ve been known to (gasp) throw on another distro to get past a problem until a new kernel release or bug fix comes in, but it’s the rarity now. I gotta be honest that I’m surprised it was Debian which solved a corner case for your gaming table. Maybe it was a monitor issue or weird (old) hardware?
Good call on the final pass with Windows. With Steam, you really can’t miss on hardly any game these days unless it’s bloated with DRM, but who am I to speak - I have XBox that can actively spy on me for those DRMed games… Carry on.
Old hardware is certainly possible. I salvaged it from my parents who were going to throw it out. It’s got an A10-8700P and is limping along with a single 4GB DIMM. The thing doesn’t even have a second memory slot.
