    Baah. KBIN just ate my reply.

    Point form since I forgot to save to clipboard first.

    Tried mint - booted to black screen
    Tried ubuntu - got silly crashes like in the post trying to install stuff. It also wanted me to sign up for some sort of support package with 5 free devices to get updates or something. Also, trackpad scrolling was uncontrollable. Would scroll up half a screen or more as I lifted my fingers off.
    Tried fedora - only 100% and 200% zoom option, and no right click.

    Managed to fix the fedora issues with some command line found on Google and a gnome customising addon.

    n00b here, just playing. Can’t migrate fully as I need VBA and Playit Live etc.

      I took a similar path but eventually ended up on openSUSE for my desktop. I’ve been pretty happy with it. I can’t think of a single issue that I wasn’t able to quickly resolve. I even got CUDA installed and working in under an hour.
