According to me, the best one would be Manjaro. It’s based on arch Linux.

It's a very fast OS and easier to install. It has a tool that installs drivers for you.

Apart from that, I would also mention Linux Mint. It's an Ubuntu-based distro that's amazing.

The trickiest one would be Gentoo. Gentoo is known for being extremely difficult to install. When the topic of installing Gentoo comes up, the average time seems to be around three full days to just get the system installed.
[Linux] Asutosh5941:
{Mod edit: Quoted post has been deleted. Oswald Boelcke}

I installed Ubuntu but the main problem was it's packages often gets corrupted.. I don't know if this happens to all or only me but I really dislike Ubuntu..

I would prefer to use Debian.. if u think Debian is highly bloated then u can install Debian like arch (bootstrap Debian) ..

If u like to use latest packages then u can go to unstable repo...

But.. the unstable (Sid) packages are also slightly older

I would recommend to avoid these two and switch to arch as it has latest packages, easy to install and repair if corrupted, easy to use..

But if you are a developer then Debian/Ubuntu is for u as these are greatly supported in developing environment

Other distros are also great for development but it's hard to find specific packages as only packages for Debian/Ubuntu are mentioned in developer sites.
[Linux] zzz2002:
Completely agree, I've been using Linux for about 15+ years. I tried several different to begin with, starting with Fedora, moved through others, including Ubuntu before settling on Debian about 10 years ago.
[Linux] Asutosh5941:
I love arch and derivatives but don't trust AUR REPO ...

I use arch but rather than using AUR repo I build programs from source code .....

Gentoo is best if u hav time to build it and u can highly optimize packages for ur processor using "-march=****"…..

I will recommend to not use kde in gentoo as it's packages are very big and time-consuming..

Also using -01 rather than -O2 is better to save time.
[Linux] maoosonyourdesk:
Gentoo

i don't use it but it's the most customizable
[Linux] PrabhuSamuel:
Best: Obviously Debian. It is fast, light, stable, customizable and very powerful.

Trickiest: Linux From Scratch (LFS). Yow have to learn to make your own GNU/Linux distro!
[Linux] ace2nutzer:
I'm using for years Lubuntu and I'm very happy with it.

Fast and stable and with custom kernel it's even faster, especially it'll boot much faster.

My review is only based on development tasks incl. Firefox browser usage.

I've no idea how it's for games.
[Linux] 03hdfatboy:
I've hopped around a few years, but If I had to choose a favorite, MX-23 x64 Is reliable and comes with handy tools like Snapshot. I can get all my apps installed, set up my desktop themes and wallpaper like I want, then make an exact copy of my running system into a bootable ISO for an emergency system restore disk.
[Linux] maximusfoa:
Gentoo... Voidlinux super fast..
[Linux] Ingolfxda:
I would recommend 'Q4OS' on 'Debian Stable' for beginners and advanced users.

It runs very well on older and brand new devices.

I have had good experiences myself and with the recommendation.

Can be installed on Windows computers like a Windows program and can be uninstalled again without leaving any residue if you don't like it.

The old WUBI installation method from Ubuntu, reissued and modified.

Ingenious ;-)
[Linux] pepitosi:
Hi to all

By my humble opinion with all due respect to you all ,

I don't think there is a best or worst distribution here,

it all depends on the user and the purpose of use.

like things in a store, you buy what you think you need and for what you will use it for.

For developers one distribution is good for the common user, another, and so on ......

It all depends on the user's knowledge (IT) and requirement.

Just my humble opinion (I use Debian - Parrot)

Greetings to all​
[Linux] vladovns:
I like the Debian based distributions. Pick Debian if you want stability or you can go with Debian unstable if you want newer software. Ultimately all distros are the same, the difference is the packaging system, the only distros I dislike is anything that comes from Red Hat because they are an EVIL company.
[Linux] mAnN14:
I have tried multiple OS over the years - Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora, Debian, etc.

The best I found for daily usage - Mint or Fedora.

Ubuntu is full of bugs and not at all user-friendly (no matter what folks say).

The ease of using Mint or Fedora is unparalleled even for someone who's stepping into Linux OS.

If I have to chose the best linux distro - my vote would go with either Linux Mint or Fedora.
[Linux] sophiaalice:
Hey everyone,

I have heard great things about gaming on Linux. What What I'm genuinely curious about is how some versions, like SteamOS, handle pausing and resuming games smoothly. something that's not so great on Windows.

Does anyone have recommendations for a Linux OS that's simple to set up and great for gaming?

Thanks!
[OPPO Find X5 Pro Questions & Answers] evensure:
Hey, I'm currently wondering about leaving my Samsung Galaxy S9 running on LineageOS 18.1 behind and invest into more up-to-date hardware.

The Oppo Find X5 Pro catches my interest.

However, I'd want to switch to custom ROMs at some point, latest by the end of its update support and possibly root the device.

Considering this, would the Find X5 Pro still fit my needs?

Try to get to fastboot is hard . So far i figured out how to get to fastboot.

Run cmd from either Adb/fastboot folder or Adb from platform tools .

run the command:

adb devices

next run :

adb reboot bootloader

while it reboots hold the down volume and power.

it put into fastboot. After that Im lost. Thats as far as I got.

[OPPO Find X5 Pro Questions & Answers] evensure:
I allowed myself to use Google translate which is also able to translate images. This is what I got:

View attachment 5569187

I came to the same conclusion. The release offers coming with all that extra stuff such as watch, wireless charger and protector seemed to be a good deal.

Especially, when my current phones battery struggles a lot, front camera issues came up and sometimes people I'm calling feel uncomfortable with extra noise.

Though, usually I'm someone who uses their phone for the extra mile. Knowing that Oppo is as restrictive toward a custom roms, protected me from making a not thought through gut decision.

To unlock bootloader of OPPO phone, we need to use "Deep Testing" apk to request approval from OPPO, but there's no such apk for Find X5 Pro yet.

I'm OPPO Product Ambassador and asked OPPO to release it, but they replied their developer is not interested in it.
[OPPO Find X5 Pro Questions & Answers] Canuck Knarf:

In general Guys, what about kernelSU? According to the guide our device should be supported. Anyone knows if there's working, bootable recovery (for backup purposes) and what is (could be) generic boot image file type (gz?)?

I assume that if in developer settings I have option to unlock bootloader, the rest of the process via Adb is possible.
[OPPO Find X5 Pro Questions & Answers] HEROMEROHD:
You can't though. You can consider the bootloader unlock option in developer options cosmetic for now, since we can't unlock the bootloader without an tool from oppo. Otherwise magisk wouldn't be a problem too.

Hallo zusammen,

Mir ist aufgefallen, dass mein Bildschirm am linken und rechten Rand einen deutlichen Rotschimmer auf weißem Hintergrund hat. Ist das normal? Kann das an der serienmäßig aufgebrachten Schutzfolie liegen?

Ich lese oft auf Webseiten mit weißem Hintergrund und es stört etwas, wenn die Ränder rötlich erscheinen. Es hängt auch vom Betrachtungswinkel ab und ist meiner Meinung nach nicht immer gleich ausgeprägt.

Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback.

VG Alex

MOD EDIT: English Translation Below

Hello, everyone,

I noticed that my screen has a distinct red cast on the left and right edges on a white background. Is that normal? Could this be due to the protective film applied as standard?

I often read on websites with a white background and it's a little annoying when the edges appear reddish. It also depends on the viewing angle and is not always equally pronounced in my opinion.

Thank you for your feedback.

Hi

The A95X F4, works with Dolby, but it doesn't work for TRUE HD Audio all the channels

In the settings, I see that the firmware did not enable True HD audio in the selectable formats for pass-through but still works

I've tried different versions of Kodi thinking that if it has its own codec it won't rely on android settings but get the same.

When I play a file with True HD audio, it is played in dolby but downscaled, the input signal should show 8 but does and only shows 6 but the active speakers shows 8

I wanted to ask if I use MX Player with added codecs, will this allow TRUE HD audio to be streamed regardless of whether it shows up in Android settings.

I plugged in an old Android 7 box and everything works great regarding audio.

I will really appreciate everyone's help here

Thanks a lot

Build Instructions for the ones that want to help

- Create working dir:

Code:

mkdir ~/android-kernel

- Go to the dir:

Code:

cd ~/android-kernel

- Clone the Linuxtogo GIT:

Code:

git clone git://git.linuxtogo.org/home/groups/mobile-linux/kernel.git

- Go into newly created dir:

Code:

cd ~/android-kernel/kernel

- Create a new branch, call it htc-msm and link it to the official htc-msm development branch:

Code:

- Descend into the "main" android dir:

Code:

cd ~/android-kernel

- Get toolchain:

Code:

wget http://www.codesourcery.com/gnu_too...-none-linux-gnueabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2

- maybe you need to rename the just downloaded file (because after .tar.bz2 wget has added ?lite=arm). (HINT FOR LINUX-NEWBIES: USE TAB TO COMPLETE KNOWN FILENAMES!! - In this case type: mv arm(TAB) arm(TAB) -> backspace till 'bz2' is the last word)

Code:

mv arm-2008q1-126-arm-none-linux-gnueabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2\?lite\=arm arm-2008q1-126-arm-none-linux-gnueabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2

- unpack the toolchain:

Code:

tar -xjf arm-2008q1-126-arm-none-linux-gnueabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2

- ascend again into the 'kernel' directory:

Code:

cd ~/android-kernel/kernel

- make the kernel:

Code:

git checkout -b htc-vogue origin/htc-vogue

You also have to use

Code:

make vogue_defconfig ARCH=arm

- export path so the newly downloaded toolchain will be used instead of your default compiler (which would compile for your computer instead of your phone):

Code:

export PATH=~/android-kernel/arm-2008q1/bin:$PATH

- make the zImage-file:

Code:

make zImage ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-

Now the zImage file is created inside the directory kernel/arch/arm/boot.

When uploading this to your phone, remember that you only have to replace the zImage after each kernel build - the Linux environment on top of the kernel can just stay the same, so initrd (which is the ramdisk filesystem) can stay the same.

It seems useful however to setup an SVN or something, so even 'non-registered' developers can write patches and submit them for review. You can set up such an SVN for free at assembla.com, together with a wiki, TRAC and more. They even say you can ask for more storage space and stuff if your project is an open-source project.

If you have such an SVN developers like me can help without making any false promises of some sort.
