Didn't realize that opensuse tumbleweed was wayland not xorg based and I fucked it up good. Well I made a bigger mistake, I downloaded and tried to install bluestar linux.

Shit would be insulting shit for this installer, it's the same as the opensuse one BUT after 2 hrs the installer froze "opensuse takes less than 5 minutes for a perfect install". It froze or stopped twice then the install didn't boot. Well fuck this, I opened the live desktop to burn another iso to usb. My drives are password locked for security, the password not on the nonexistant bluestar site or in the installer is supposedly admin, nope. I opened a terminal tried SU, it worked, but the file manager for security does not open in root mode via a terminal, fuckers, I'm hating some asshole bluestar devs about now, assholes made it so I couldn't use my stuff for making a new usb and for some fucked up reason I only have 71mb on a huge 32gb usb to download a new iso.

It's like this distro is a rotten practical joke. I fortunately had the opensuse usb still sitting around so I reinstalled with lesson learned. So don't make the same mistake I did with bluestar, it's the worst piece of shit out there for arch installs.

I started out with Mint, and then moved to Ubuntu after a while and getting familiar with some of the structure of how Linux works vs Win. For anyone reading this that doesn't know:Mint is closest to Win layout and such. If you are considering giving Linux a whirl, it's a good place to start.

Mint is built on the ubuntu kernel unless you do LMDE4 which is based on debian ... Xfe, cinnamom etc are basically themes

Kubuntu is pretty good so far. Only thing that sucks is the compositor crashing every restart.

LMDE is Debian based. Ubuntu is for newbz.

second reply waiting for MX once mx21 is out of beta meaning debian is out of beta and that should be worth the wait.

Mint is crap with 4K displays, tried cinnamon and xfce and both were terrible.

Try fedora.

Also if you can has root, you can use the command line to make your bootable usb.

dd if=/path/to/iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4K

Obviously fix the paths.

The security was excessive, also without being able to mount another partition I didn't have room to download the iso anyways and it likely would not allow me to write to a usb stick also. This iso was a clusterfuck of user irritation. I'm thinking about a 100 hrs of errors to fix and code to rewrite till this is to install in under 15 minutes as opensuse installed in 5 minutes if that long with no errors or long pauses like Manjaro has when installing from Pamac. Pamac just stops for several minutes for no reason visible, almost no cpu or network activity like it's taking a break and if you click in and out of the terminal view to the listings and shit it starts running again like it never left off except for my frustration.

Like this one DD better so you're just not waiting without feedback on if it's almost finished. dd if=/path/to/input of=/path/to/output status=progress

Get fucked linuxfag

You have some displaced hostility issues. There are a lot of things to knock about Linux, but choosing to use it instead of Microsoft or Apple is definitely not one of them. I am not even a tech guy, and I use Linux for my main rig (this one).

Yeah, this was frustration and a warning so no one else has to experience this mess of an offering by bluestar. I don't want anyone else to get stuck in that mess and I got lucky with another iso already burned but otherwise I'd have to wait till the next day and ask to use a relatives computer to download and then use rufus to install onto another usb stick so I had an out I just don't like needing to use windows for anything past xp it all went to shit under the MS shit management that wanted user info stealing than to make a friendly OS that puts the user first not some profit margin for some greedy bastards above all even after overcharging for the fucking OS in the first place.
