I dual booted a machine and I had to even unplug my windows drive to get it to install a Linux distro on the other drive. Windows really does not like playing nice with dual boot systems so it is always best to keep Windows on its own drive.
No idea if it will help you here, but everytime someone mentions to me they are having display output issues and they're using Wayland and an Nvidia GPU, I recommend trying X to see if problem persists or not. If it doesn't, I would suspect the GPU driver, but that is a VERY uninformed guess. Lol
As a software dev, I have spilt coffee on myself a number of times. People just don't understand what a hard working environment it is. 😞
Ahhh. Not just one state anymore. The principal developer from System76 got Colorado banned now as well. Lol
Same! I'm not at my computer at the moment so I can't check the name of the scanning app i use but yeah, works perfectly. I use a Brother printer as well which I also can't remember the model name of.
The opposite of Bethesda. The feature is actually a bug.
Honestly, if you can spare the cash, I'd say get a console. Maybe a cheap one secondhand instead of dual booting. Especially if it's for the kids, probably easier for them to just use the console instead of the crazy machine with TWO operating systems. Lol
You won't HAVE to, but it might make it easier at first. The kernel module for the drivers simply needs to be signed and then secure boot will be happy. I've done it for debian before but can't find the exact piece of documentation explaining how to sign the kernel module.
Edit: Debian Guide
So I use an Xbox Series and their wireless receiver for the PC. It's not plug and play for the wireless functionality, but there is a fantastic repo xone. Just clone the repo and follow the instructions and it works great.
I'm running EndeavorOS with Plasma.
I use Spectacle by KDE. Comes installed on Plasma and it's always done a good job me.
