Re: "What Is A Low Resources Computer? [SOLVED]"

How would one say "low resources computer" in German? Would saying it was an "underpowered computer" be too imprecise? Could it be that since we are still discussing languages with these questions they should be in the off-topic area of the forum?Könnte es sein, dass der Zauberer denkt, dass wir das ...

Re: EyeCandyOS

:thumbup: I'm happy to report that I have tried your EyeCandyOS, and I really like it. I'm not sure it will become a daily driver for me, like stock Bookworm, but I loved seeing Compiz in action again. It was like a blast from the past! I actually felt younger...for a moment, anyway.
I was anxious ...

Re: "What Is A Low Resources Computer? [SOLVED]"

That's the main problem with English for non-native English speakers.
Equal word is used by too many different meanings.
But the most annoying thing is to double the "no" like "I don't want no doctor".
In German this is "doppelte Verneinung" (Ich möchte nicht keinen Arzt) and so this means: "I want ...

Re: EasyOS Scarthgap-series version 6.4.4

I was negligent in getting back to you, Barry, but Scarthgap 6.4.4 does produce sound on the old rock solid Lenovo T-430. As for the Dell desktop I had trouble with, it's a sort of weird bird anyway, I mean it has PS/2 ports for keyboard and mouse and it dates from 2019, for example, but I bought it ...

Re: Latest Windows update is messing up booting Linux operating systems

I have had trouble trying to dual boot Linux (specifically "Pop!_OS") with Windows 10 Pro. Because my brain has been damaged by a series of concussions I received over the last two years, so I am slower than I used to be mentally, I am not looking for a fix for this right at the moment.

Instead, I ...

Re: "What Is A Low Powered Computer? [SOLVED]"

One of the computers I have seems to be somewhere in-between 'under-resourced' and 'modern enough.' It's a computer I built in the early 2000's using an AMD Phenom II and 8GB of DDR3 ram. Running Puppy, it's still very fast. Running Debian, it has a little lag. I like the case, and I've been ...

Re: EasyOS Scarthgap-series version 6.4.4

Yes, Barry, I have tried the MSCW. It correctly identified the hardware and gave me sound. But neither FF nor StreamTuner2 produce sound for me. Happily, I have sound in Bookworm64, and I had it in the Kirkstone series of Easy, and I'm going to try it on one of my laptops to see what happens. It's ...

Re: EasyOS Scarthgap-series version 6.4.4

Hello, I missed it if someone else has already posted about it and there's an easy fix somewhere, but I have no sound in Scarthgap 6.4.4.
Hardinfo tells me that the audio device is an Intel 100/C230 Chipset Family HD Audio Controller. Could it be a missing driver?
I've unmuted everything that was ...
