  • Uff, that one is difficult.

    In theory all Linux distributions support the same hardware. Its just that sometimes you need to manually install drivers and configure sth. And on Other distros you don’t need to do that for certain hardware.

    I guess Linux Mint is usually pretty good at default support, but of course not everything will work.

    Now about if certain hardware has Linux support:

    Check if the manufacturer is claiming Linux support. This is the best case, you can assume it just works.

    If there is no mention about it from the manufacturer it is still possible to have support. Use an online search machine and enter “specific hardware Linux support” or use linux mint instead of linux so that you can be sure it works for your distro.

    What usually works almost always:

    Motherboards(except if they are a few months old from release)

    Keyboards (unless they are gaming keyboards with special tools like razer, then only the normal keyboard functions are working without special config)

    Monitors

    Grafic cards (they don’t work from day one release, you should always wait a few months)

    The entertainment value of LTT is there.

    And also some informational. I don’t care about the drama and don’t think Linus is a saint or shit. The videos are good usually. The rest I don’t bother.

    And the other one is is a genius, almost saint with anger issues and an enormous enrichment for the world community.


  • Dns is annoying ti find as a bug on my home system. The ip changes every few days. So until then it works.

    I have a dns updater but updating it without checking the notes, like I do usually, resulted in breaking the current configuration. And I had to figure out how to configure it again.

    Now it works and I don’t update it anymore
