The CPU might be the same, but the audio chip, trackpad, etc. might be different and require a new driver.

Isn’t that marcan? There might not be much new content, since he quit the Asahi Linux project.

What format are the files? What are you using to view the thumbnails?

That would probably depend on the hardware acceleration for video encoding and decoding on your particular system. Doing it in software, especially for low-spec devices, is going to greatly limit your resolution and quality if you want a reasonable frame rate.

So it looks like the only significant factor was that you reduced the amount of heated space.

It might be the CPU, but it might be something else. On the old CPU, update the OS, update the BIOS, and run fwupd or boot Windows temporarily to update all other firmware. Then run memtest and a cpu stress test to make sure you’re not just triggering an existing hardware issue.

If that’s all clean, put in the new CPU and run memtest and a cpu stress test to see where you get issues.

It’s the opensuse blog, not journalism.

You could set the password to be the same. It’ll attempt to use all known methods when unlocking it.

You can also probably store a key on the root drive instead of using a password, but I’ve never done that.

I just don’t see the advantage of shoehorning graphics backwards into text interfaces when we’ve got an entire integrated graphical desktop.

Disconnect the other drive when you do it and you’ll be fine.

Images in the terminal? At that point you’re just reinventing the GUI.

I don’t understand the purpose of this post

Yeah if it doesn’t even boot something as basic as freedos it’s probably not a configuration issue. You can try resetting the BIOS and pulling the battery, and of course try a different USB stick if you haven’t already.

But if it’s not even booting a previously good OS it might be that the board died.

That should be correct. What desktop is it exactly? Are you using the current OS versions? Does it boot from USB if you try older ones, Windows 7, or even freedos?

What are you using to create the boot media? Try Rufus, and make sure it’s BIOS and MBR.

I agree, if you aren’t able to use your own judgement to evaluate sources, this is not the community for you. I’m sure you can get away with sandbagging in corporate software development, but open-source happens because people are self-motivated. That also means any time given is done purely voluntarily, so there’s an expectation that participants do their own homework.

If you don’t trust us, then you’re not going to be able to perform the necessary work to contribute, because there’s a lot of “download this, run this”.

Yes. It’s just a gzip file from Debian.

So like zoom but open source? Jitsi is the first thing that comes to mind.

ffmpeg is not in main in any version
