- Someone1234 10y agoThanks for the recommendation, I'll check it out.
- ac29 10y agoAny advantages over Xubuntu on a standard laptop, aside from chromebooks being inexpensive?
- anonbanker 10y agoMost of what Gallium does is polish the distro for Chromebooks. everything Just Works without tweaking or otherwise. Getting a chromebook touchpad to work under Xubuntu requires a kernel patch and a recompile (2 years later, and the drivers haven't been merged upstream yet), as well as fixing the power button and other keyboard settings. I've personally applied all his changes from his github repositories on my fleet of Gentoo-running chromebooks, and it was pretty substantial. but if you don't have a Chromebook, you won't see the same need for GalliumOS. just use Xubuntu (unless you like the branding).
