    What Graphics Driver are you using? Are you running under wayland or xorg?

    Gnome has been making a lot of changes for better scaling support recently in Wayland, so I'd recommend you to use the newest Version 3.38 and log into a Wayland session.

    If I interpret this right, you have made a bootable USB Installer for FreeNAS? Did you install it on the computer yet or are you just trying to boot form the USB Stick? What Error Message do you get?

    I wouldn't use honor's own software anyways. If you can, a Custom Rom is highly recommended to not give all your data to the CCP.

    Eventually the pressure from ARM would have gotten a lot more intense, but I don't think they would have offered too much more performance. Maybe Hexa-Core i7s with HT, Hexa-Core i5s without by now.

    What about a portable Server Rack, so he can have a Workstation, Rendering and File Server, Portable 4-Modem Mobile Connection and a UPS so there won't be power spikes when running it off a generator. /s What

    Please answer the following questions: 1. What is the exact Model of Thinkcentre you're installing it on 2. What happens when you try to boot from the Drive 3. Are any enterprise security features in the BIOS active?

    If you are asking about Benchmarks, he has used applications form the Adobe Suite, the typical Blender Renders or SPECworkstation before.

    You will constantly be doing Real-Time Playback, so you should really consider upgrading your Desktop instead of getting a Laptop, especially as you're planning to use it docked on your desk most of the time, for the following reason: Any Laptop with a good enough cooling system - that won't get annoyingly loud when constantly under load - is barely portable anymore and thus I don't see the reason why you would get a Laptop for your animation work. If want have to work at other places and they have good internet, consider using a Remote Desktop Solution to access your Desktop at home as well.

    Could you please elaborate a little more on what exactly you are trying to ask?
  13. imcaspar
    You can install it in a Virtual Machine or onto a USB Drive if you have one that's fast enough.
  14. imcaspar
    What exactly was your problem with the scaling, by the way? Is everything to small when you leave it on 100%? I would recommend you to use Gnome and Wayland (for example with Stock Ubuntu) instead of KDE if you want to set different Scaling factors for different displays.

    KDE and Gnome (which popOS uses) are Desktop Environments, meaning the Interface and and Applications that come with your distribution. The Distribution underlying is Ubuntu for all three of them. KDE Neon - Ubuntu and newest KDE applications Kubuntu - Ubuntu and stable KDE applications popOS - Ubuntu with Tweaks and Gnome

    https://www.netgear.com/business/products/switches/unmanaged/XS508M.aspx Cheapest Option I would have in mind

    Nbase-T or SFP?
  18. imcaspar
    Maybe it is some sort of Material to restrict airflow?

    Hey, it's great to see more people switch to Linux! Before I try to help you with the problems you're having right now, I need to know what your Hardware Specifications are (CPU, GPU, Resolution of Laptop and External Display) Also, please consider using another Distribution of Linux but KDE Neon. It is meant as a Testing Distribution for the KDE Developers and gives you the newest Applications and Changes in the KDE Desktop Environment, but for a starter it would be better to go with something more stable. I would recommend you go with an Ubuntu-Derivative, unless you are going to focus on doing development work or really get into Linux as much as you can. PopOS is a great distribution out of the Box for Gaming, which most here would be focused on. Kubuntu is the official Ubuntu Version with the KDE Desktop Environment, which is more stable and polished than KDE Neon. Fedora and Arch later on if you always want to be on the leading or respectively for Arch bleeding edge of innovation, but stay away from it for now. Once again, please share your Specs so we can help more.

    I know that this is a niche use case and Intel is aiming for the broad Windows market, but: Good Graphics from Intel will make these the Holy Grail of Laptops for Linux Users. Intel is - in stark contrast to Nvidia - great when it comes to open source drivers and has pushed innovation in the past. Nvidia keeps releasing features in cooperation with Microsoft and not wanting to do anything open source, while AMD does ok.

    I believe WSL doesn't support graphics passthrough, unless you are on a Beta or Dev channel as the feature is still to come, so you'd have to do it traditionally. https://research.wmz.ninja/articles/2017/11/setting-up-wsl-with-graphics-and-audio.html ^This is the method I know, but I'm not too sure how up-to-date it is. https://www.zdnet.com/article/windows-10-linux-subsystem-you-get-gpu-acceleration-with-intel-amd-nvidia-drivers/#:~:text=AMD%2C Intel and Nvidia have,Ubuntu 18.04 and Ubuntu 20.04.

    Did you install a graphics driver?

    I would strongly recommend you to use Proxmox, it's an open-source Virtualization Host. That is great if you want to run Gameservers etc. later on, as you can run them in a Container or Virtual Machine so you can't really break anything. But it is quite some work to set it all up properly and while it can be fun, you'll have to read through Wikis a lot etc. https://www.reddit.com/r/Proxmox/ https://www.reddit.com/r/homelab/ https://www.proxmox.com/en/

    Oh, that makes sense. Can't really help you much then, I run Linux natively.
  25. imcaspar
    I would strongly recommend you to use Virtualbox instead of WSL. It will save you a lot of hassle.
