Debian Stretch

Debian Stretch. Yes, i'm back to debian. After lots of error on another distro, i'm back to debian. Did i mention that i'm back to debian?

Just mash that enter button at installation and you get a Gnome desktop in no time. Its reilable, its very snappy, its debian.

But, Gnome is a resources-hungry.. why oh why?

Nah, any Windows 10 computer should run Gnome Desktop just fine. With those telling that gnome is resources-hungry, still my PC runs quieter than when i boot into windows 10.

But, what about wifi? iwlwifi-something?

Just download the package from debian repo 

http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/ 

irmware-iwlwifi_20161130-3_all.deb

and install the package

sudo dpkg -i <insertyourpackagehere.deb>

...and done.

Gnome Debian Stretch

With wifi installed ;)

Internal Error and Crash Report

Randomly crash reports and internal errors makes me hate Ubuntu with all my heart. Freshly installed, no additional install of any kind, and the last one is a grub error told me that an .img file or something were missing, And i was unable to log into Windows for my daily work. 

With grub-update, it detect the Windows UEFI bootloader, still it cannot boot. 

Using boot-repair does the trick tho, installed from a ppa :

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y boot-repair && boot-repair

then just click recommended repair

Even the problem is solved, i hate it. why would something is crashing by default?

Ah well, log into Windows, download some cd images, open Rufus and ditch that Ubuntu. ^_^

Gnome

Its been a while i don't touch any linux machine and i miss it. Work forced me to use Windows 10. It's a nice operating system but i'm not fond of it.

So i browse the distrowatch.com and list some of the distro. I want to try Gnome desktop environtment, and i pick Debian -again. During the installation it request a wifi driver, and i'm too lazy to fix it. >_<

So i download another distro and voila

Ubuntu ! >:D

Suprisingly its a nice distro, despite a crash just after initial login.

And, going from Debian to Ubuntu, i just have to be a little patience since it feels less snappy than Debian -or maybe just my illusion.

And my other hdd is just there. no need to edit /etc/fstab or whatever.

Software updater instead of apt-get update apt-get upgrade :)

And yes, of course my cpu-fan is less noisy than when i'm on Windows

Well, got to go and see ya later!
