(It does take an M.2. 2280 SSD, so it won't stay that way for long, but I was curious what distribution I could install on the 16 GB limit and still have some room to do things.) Ran into BunsenLabs Linux. Very small, based on Debian 12, and a nice, clean, well configured OpenBox desktop. So I tried it (there is a live trial) and liked it — then decided to replace my Ubuntu server SSD, formerly a Windows 10 SSD (since BunsenLabs Linux gives you the option to install the LAMP stack as part of the installation process). A light desktop and Debian server together, pretty nice. One thing that I did run into (for the first time) was screen tearing. Now I know what they're talking about. I guess it is a common issue in OpenBox, but there was a fix — I ran its compositor (Picom) with the option "--experimental backend" and that fixed it. https://www.bunsenlabs.org/ This was originally based on CrunchBang Linux, but CrunchBang was never this slick. -- [Self-centered, Woke] "pride is a life of self-destructive fakery, an entrapment to a false and self-created matrix of twisted unreality."
