why? because it’s not triggering an obscure anti cheat on a game I’ve been playing when using wine (performance is still the same tho), everything else is just work no missing dependencies and it’s doesn’t get in my way like other distros (I tried Arch, Opensuse, Ubuntu, Debian), just to clarify I’m a complete noob when it come to Linux so maybe if I know better I probably make everything works just like Fedora
couldn’t you have just used the laptop’s built-in pointing device, plugged in a wired mouse or paired BT via console… instead of dying on this hill?
It was a mainboard not a full laptop. No built in pointing device.
Couldn’t open the console because fedora would not accept any keystrokes to open terminal.
I don’t have a USB c mouse.
The only way to fix this would be purchasing a USB c mouse. I’m not installing fedora to pay more.
That’s an obviously poor take. If only laptop users could get past the screen then it’s still broken.
None of the options I gave are exclusive to laptops.
You were literally responded by suggesting they use their laptop’s HID, then suggested a wired mouse which they said they didn’t have, then suggested using the console which the install process doesn’t advertise as a possibility to the user.
Poor UX is a bug, it needs to be updated.
I don’t disagree with that at all. I was responding specifically to where you said “if only laptop users could”, and I was just stating that the options I presented did not have a laptop as a prerequisite in order to use said options. It still needs fixing as you said, I just don’t agree with OP’s swift dismissal of the entire distro as a non-starter for the reason stated.
