Yep. LibreOffice works... except when it doesn't. Similarly, getting Ubuntu 16's AMD drivers to work well is a clusterfuck and a half. Linux fits 99% of my use

Yep. LibreOffice works... except when it doesn't. Similarly, getting Ubuntu 16's AMD drivers to work well is a clusterfuck and a half.
Linux fits 99% of my use cases, and the other 1% is unbelievably frustrating.
- diminish 10y agoDrivers are hard on windows too. As a non-dotnet developer windows is frustrating with 99% of use cases too.
- amitheonlyone 10y agoBought a new laptoo with AMD APU and Radeon Graphics.Installed Ubuntu 16.04. Even though I'm using the default open source driver, there doesn't seem to be any issues for general use. Had to struggle to get the wifi driver working properly though. So yeah, I agree with you on the 99%-1% part.
- omegaham 10y agoWhat's really infuriating is that I seem to be the only one with this issue. Dual-monitor setup, computer will completely freeze and refuse to boot if I disconnect a monitor. It will hang half the time that I start up. Opening any graphically intensive app (VLC, games, Youtube videos, opening up the Dash, etc) will cause massive tearing. And there is nothing on the Internet about it. I'm staying on 15.10 until they come out with something better.
