None of the issues you speak of are relevant to running linux on a laptop instead of windows. Linux has decent PM and I havent had glitchy issues with displays in years.
The idea of nuking the linux environment gets easier when you run one natively as you start to understand the system better.
I understand the idea where everyone wants to have the same ecosystem to run things on (docker) but the best part of linux was the fact it wasnt the same as windows
This convergence of the operating systems is concerning
- meddlepal 7y agoI dual boot Linux and Windows 10 on my personal Lenovo X1 and my Linux setup definitely has its moments with multiple displays... It mostly works until it does not then it's a headache. Power management seems OK but I dunno how that relates to the fan controller because in Linux my laptop sounds like a jet engine 90% of the time while in Windows it rarely spins up.
- geggam 7y agoProbably could use some configuration on fan control or CPU throttling :) I have more issues with windows than I do linux but I have been using linux on a desktop for ~15 years or more now ( would say 19 but there was a BSD period in there )
