What laptop is that?
80% or more of Linux uses that have argued about the privacy, security and open source aspects about computing have not attempted to and or do not have the technical knowledge to personally audit their operating systems kernel and all of its applications.

or i get the money back and buy this thing.
Previously thread: >>52272449
Intended for users of all levels, including absolute beginners.
There are three ways to try Linux, you can:
1) Install a Linux OS on a VM (Virtual Machine/VirtualBox) for "safety purposes"
2) Use the Live ISO directly without installing anything, that way, you can get a "full Linux experience".
3) Go balls deep and overwrite everything with Linux (not recommended)
If you are serious about switching to Linux and if you have Windows dual-booted (recommended for pure newbies), we recommend you use it exclusively for 2 weeks, and avoid Windows dual booting for that period of time, or it's likely you will start retreating back to windows instead of getting used to Linux as your new home and working onnmaking it feel the way you want it.
Before asking, please find the answers to your questions in resources.

tryxrandr --output LVDS1 --auto --output HDMI1 --right-of LVDS1 --auto
same as what you used, just specify main display
Guess I'll reiterate the issue I was working on last thread.
How2 connect my laptop to my TV with HDMI on Gentoo?
On Fedora it would have two displays, the TV and the Laptop.
Now it just has the laptop and the function key to switch the displays just turns the screen off. TV gets no signal.
Have an intel i915 video card.
xrandr says there's an HDMI output but I tried to switch with it and it just made my desktop 1920x1080 and it took a while for me to fix that.
>>52284879 (You)
>xrandr says there's an HDMI output but I tried to switch with it and it just made my desktop 1920x1080 and it took a while for me to fix that.
what did you actually tell xrandr?
also post output of xrandr
> xrandr --output HDMI1 --mode 1920x1080 --left-of LVDS1
> Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 1366 x 768, maximum 32767 x 32767
LVDS1 connected 1366x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 344mm x 193mm
1366x768 60.01*+
1024x768 60.00
800x600 60.32 56.25

DP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
HDMI1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
VGA1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
VIRTUAL1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
Yeah, HDMI1 is disconnected because I don't have it plugged in ATM. It doesn't work when it's plugged in; I'm not retarded.
When it's plugged in it says HDMI1 connected.
>>52284979 (You)
It also lists a shitload of resolutions and framerates, same as LVDS1.
If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it.

How outdated is an AM2 socket, completely confused. Was trying to update my 10 year old rig's AMD athlon 3800+ cpu but couldnt find any shops in my local area that sold am2 socket processors. Was hoping to get something greater than 2.5 ghz desu family

Anyone still running this bad boy?
I'm still running with it and it still holds up very well after 5 years.
I'm still unsure of upgrading to skylake this year. Convince me /g/.
>>52283774
Dont, the only reason why you'd want to upgrade is because you want less power consumption or a better IGP (which is fucking useless if you already own a dedicated GPU)
Also, check em
>>52283924
cannonlake is a ''tick'' though.
>>52283924

mah man. one of the major selling points to me.
How come technology has stagnated over the past few years? All we are getting are minimal improvements in processing power, thinness or weight. Why is there no i9 or petabyte storage? No batteries which last longer than a day on smartphones or holographic displays?
What went wrong?
>>52275349
>How come technology has stagnated over the past few years?
I love this meme.
>Why is there no i9
i9 IS NOT A FUCKING MEASUREMENT
i3, i5, i7 ARE JUST PRODUCT LINES
WHEN YOU SAY YOU BOUGHT AN i5, NOBODY EVEN FUCKING KNOWS WHAT GENERATION YOU BOUGHT IT FROM
STOP USING THIS TERM LIKE IT'S A MEASUREMENT OF PERFORMANCE
Those things already exist. You don't here about them often since they're too expensive and not very many people can get their hands on it
