I will do a build later tonight once I am off work. I will do a build with an AMD FX-8300 CPU. That is 8 Cores. I love those processors. Cheap and good performance.

@scottalanmiller said he has Ubuntu running on his. I think he has the same one as me, Asus ROG Strix laptop.

No, I have the RoG GV522 I think.

@stacksofplates That's what i loked about it while reading on it.

Still working well, still none of the issues that were seen before with Korora.

Fedora Desktop has an awesome one baked in too. It's my favorite one. Forget the name without looking.

Its called Fedora Media Writer and it is awesome.

Yes that's it. I use it on Windows too.

I do usually install Pithos also.

One other application I use infrequently is Planner. It's a simple PM application that does Gantt charts.

What little text editing I do, I usually do it with vi.

So I just came off of using Plasma 5 for a few months. It's not bad. It's not as in your face about everything as 4 was. However, dual monitor support seemed a little flaky.

The test with Gecko Linux is working great. No issues like before, sleep works fine. Fingers crossed, but it looks good.

It's looking so good, I might switch my desktop!

Are you using static or rolling version?
Have you tried the cinnamon version?

Rolling (based on Tumbleweed), and no, not in this case.

Really like Fedora with KDE Plasma atm. Trying Deepin on my laptop too

Deepin is surprisingly good.

Love the look of it and my touchpad feels pretty good on it. Nextcloud client isn't proving very stable atm though, having to configure it again. Followed your guide setting that up (top result on Google!)

NC has been totally stable for me on Deepin.

I've never had a great experience with it.

It always tries to search online first for things that I know are on my local system. It irks me too. Like if I'm searching for Putty, it brings up an advert for it, rather than the local application!

Others have said that as well. I haven't had that experience.

I've had both experiences. Though lately it's worked as desired - local first, then online.

that's what's weird, I've had both too... side by side on machines installed the same way!

yep - I use Clonezilla to deploy machines - it's weird that they act differently.

Actually, I got it working with bumblebee-project installed. It did not work in Korora 25, but seems to be working in 26.

I prefixed the wow-64.exe with optirun and it just worked. Great framerate too. I just need to work out the mouse capture part yet. But that's not a big deal since I don't play that game much anyways. It was just easy to test with because it's on an external drive. Hopefully it's not like that in NMS.

My cpu fan is still running full speed from the glxgear test, even though it's way cooled down by now. A reboot may fix that, though.

I hope Fedora 26 stays just as it is. "Works" great so far. More so than 25.

@jaredbusch said in How to change your user folder locations with Cinnamon or Gnome 3:

As someone upvoted this post recently, I thought I would circle back. I am using simlinks in all my Fedora systems now.

This just never worked exactly as advertised. It mostly worked, but never completely.

I also use symbolic link with Linux and Windows too. For Windows, it keeps me from messing with the default user shell folders / shell folders path or the need to move the locations. And with Linux, I don't have to mess with the user-dirs.dirs file.

Actually makes a lot of sense. I signed.
