Oh please God, cue unrequested recommendations of distros and Mint, cuz I have not been working with *nix for 45 motherfucking years.
@GeePawHill
I try #linuxMint first for most people,
but #Kubuntu is working where I have drivers' problems with Mint.
#MXLinux is my goto if I need an ultralite or #x86
#puppylinux when I need a tiny can opener
Been trying everything the last couple years after a decade gap.
Welcome/goodluck!
