Hi,
I’m Sergio aka Suttree, based in Italy - Rome.
I’m quite interested and willing to be part of this AL community. Whilst Linux as such is the best os for sure, AL manages in further emphasizing its merits. AL is one of the best Linux distros around, by now THE best for me. It’s fast (mine boots in 20 max 25 sec), stable (never had frozen windows…), easy and intuitive at all stages (installation, configuration, normal use, system administration), lightweight.
AL rocks and I’m really and honestly grateful to the people who are working on it. Bravi!
Cheers, Sergio
p.s. my interest in AL and Linux in general is a pure matter of hobby. I also like music (jazz and electronic lately)
Hey guys,
thanks all of you for the greetings!
Tomorrow Amazon will ship me a second PC I’ve just bought. My Archlabs iso pendrive is ready for another installation
For the records,
I’ve installed AL as planned on my brand new PC (wiped out Win 10 soon, of course ).
Everything went smooth except for the ALPS touchpad which in fact is recognized (as per xinput list…) but doesn’t work at all. Dead. I remember clearly it used to work in Windows, before I wiped it, so hardware fault can be excluded.
I’ve spent a lot of time online searching for a solution, tried most of the suggestions given (regarding xorg libinput/synaptics configuration, kernel parameters, driver module unload/reload…) except trying and patch the kernel, which I would consider last resort in case I get really bored of prolonged use of usb mouse (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=233867 reports a similar case where patching didn’t solve either). Should that be the case, I would post in this forum as appropriate a request for help. For the moment I can live with the issue.
Warm regards,
Sergio
Hi Glenn,
yes I did both, to no avail unfortunately.
But I don’t loose hope, I’m confident I’ll get it fixed eventually and I will share the trick.
Thanks for the support,
Sergio
