    Hello, I would like to make sure that this Laptop supports Fedora.

    Hello @speedruner08 , Welcome to the Linux.org forum, Best way to find out how it will play is to run the live usb of fedora and see if everything is working.

    Noob Question

    Hello @SandLake, Welcome to the Linux.org forum. I use Midnight commander - it's not a gui but is very good file manager. for a gui manager I would recommend pcmanfm. Which is very light weight and should work with any DE /WM that uses gtk libs. Good Luck.

    Is LMDE 6 out yet?

    I would wait a bit. LMDE6 beta has been released but offically LMDE6 final has not been released. It should be in a few days. It's been approved for stable but Mint waits until all of it's mirriors have been synced before announcing the release. If LMDE5 is working well for you I would wait a...

    Test driving ubuntu 23.10 beta

    That could be , I did a full install on the machine and the heating problem seems to have been fixed so I suspect that in live mode it was taxing the system more. In any event it seems to be working fine. Gnome 45 is nice. only thing I'll have to wait on is a couple of programs I usually...
