Are you asking for Sanskrit? Why not fcitx5.

I run Arch EndeavourOS on an old ThinkPad Yoga and it’s good. Fingerprint devices unfortunately seem to be heavily suppressed in Linux by whatever proprietary or encrypted firmware trash is going on, but those devices are not really important.

I also said pp out aloud and chuckled like a little boy.

I know the feeling that it seems to be duct taped together (makes sense since there’s thousands of developers working independently and collaboratively, unlike under Microsoft or Apple) and it sometimes infuriates me how each and every distribution has their easy install points, and yet confound certain other points.

For instance I want a Chinese IME? Fedora will get that done in a minute, but Arch varying results from install from terminal of fcitx and adding lines to a config. On the other hand Arch AUR has optimised software and mirrors for my region of the world.

Don’t know if you tried Gnome but I love it for some reason, maybe because it’s so different and customisable via extensions. So yeah, enjoy the ride!

Fedora, so most Gnome based distros. KDE as commented beside me. Arch-based EndeavourOS.

Loads of fingerprint readers are not useable in Linux either, thanks Synaptics, and Co!

Even as a (tech literate) teacher who wants to employ Linux, the lack of compatibility (using wine) with a lot of enterprise type programs and the general hodgepodge that Libre Office is, and the memory leak mess that Only Office is, I just can’t stick to Linux for long. I end up using tiny10 to use a reliable unbloated windows that can run my office 2016 and enterprise apps. Microsoft is just so entrenched and heavily serviced by thousands of people that it’s a slow climb for Linux distros to get anywhere.

The idea of elderly people using windows only programs on Linux using the compatibility layer just seems to liable to multiple potential failures.

I’ve got two F710s and they’re reliable enough. I wouldn’t trust them in pro gaming though.

If I got in the sub and saw one of these used to steer it, I’d be very concerned. I know they’re not really blaming Logitech; just taking one of these out of the plastic packaging and saying ‘OK, now we’ve got steering and propulsion!’ is not really a safety culture to get behind.
